Going to 5th isn't that big of a hindrance. Most of your ET is made up in the first 500 feet of the track. At the point you are shifting to 5th gear you are moving so fast and covering so much ground that the shift to 5th hardly matters. They could probably let off the gas completely at the top of 4th and coast through the traps and run within a couple hundredths of their best ET, but with lower MPH.
On the same subject I chuckle when someone runs their best ET with say a 1.48 60 foot and then says that they had a 1.44 and it would have been a killer pass 1/2 second quicker had they made a clean run with the better 60 foot. 60 is important, but the 330 will tell you more about how the car left. I have had my car go 1.38 to 60 and 4.0 to 330, then as the track temp changed throughout the evening the car would go as bad as 1.46 to 60, but still maintain 4.0 to 330 regardless of the 60.
Badass runs guys. How did the Civic run?

The civic went a 9.6 @ 159 I think
Congrats BVP crew!
Nice driving Oscar!
That X is flying guys!
Im proud that you're running our FMIC on there. It truly shows how well our Evo X FMIC is when being pushed the way you guys are pushing the X. Thanks for letting us be a part of it. Good stuff!

I've been busy for the last 2 weeks, looks like you guys have been to! Grats on the super runs down the quarter! I can't even imagine what the car will do with cams and further work, really we've barely scratched the surface of what the Evo X can do on the drag strip.
I'll be building a more street/strip/road course car myself but that is some great driving and a well built car to get that speed out of a stock appearing turbo.
