BSD. The only track you need to use the handbrake at the staging line. I thought all tracks were like that until one day someone asked me at Atco why I used the handbrake...

haha yeah, i remember that. it definatly makes things harder when u have to hold the e-brake up and then drop it and go
 

You guys were way ahead of the curve. Those pics look like they were before Fast and the Furious came out. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Shoot, I use my e-brake everytime I launch. I think it causes allot less stress on the drive line when you take all the slack out of it instead of having play inbetween the gears and then letting them slam together when you let loose.

You could say we were ahead of the curve at the time - my first timeslip has a date of January '95 on it.

I have since fallen way behind the curve. ;-)

change the white balance on your camera to heat it up a bit and they won't be so blue. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

That photo I did of your engine at the RallyX makes my mind up about running my Galant. Looks like the old Civic going to get the rally tires on it this year. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devil.gif

Hey Rick, yea come on out it'll be fun! I'm still on the fence about running the Galant since I did the motor swap, it's so clean under the hood now. Almost seems like a shame to get her that dirty again :p

2009 schedule is posted here: click
