Oh yeah, Himsel and I put together a few "straight-line" cars too...

Someone explain to me just what it is I'm missing.It's cool that you've "fallen out of love" with the 944 and drive a Civic now, but what's wrong with people still enjoying their cars? This is a 944 Turbo forum, so there's bound to be some "enthusiasm." I just wonder what happened to yours?

I will loose traction in 3rd and 4th when it's wet, though.
I only run 17psi.
Oh, and I have LSD.

I have Bridgestone S03's 285/30/18's fairly new.
I also have LSD.
I run 18psi on pump gas.
(sorry John)
It's not hard to loose traction in second on a warm day.
The street was cold so I'm sure this had something to do with it.
The past couple of years I took the car off the road during winter to work on it.
I'm now re-thinking this as the car runs so much stronger in the cold than in the high heat/humity we see in the summer.
I still can't get over how hard the car pulls with the VRstage 2 kit.

So when I think that something is wrong with my car, I bring a friend along to see how pale he gets. There usually is no color left in his face by the end of 3rd gear.
