Fellas.... Take a tip from an old man.....

Drag racing is all about WEIGHT/GEARING/HORSEPOWER in that order.

Lighten it as much as possible.
Gear it for max revs @ 1320ft according to your weight shifted estimate of Horsepower.
After that, just pull gears as quick as you can and maximize traction in the first 2 gears.

If I was trying to build a record breaking 1/4mile car I would not have a B16a.
My car is a circuit car and for the time being the B16a is holding up just fine, even allowing me to nab the lap record at barbagalo's.
When I have more $$$ I will upgrade to a bigger engine but will always stay N/A.
The reason I am taking my car down to the drags in the next couple of months is out of pure curiosity.
