    however, I just need to practice launching. If only a couple people are going, then I may just goto Dallas 1/8 mile. Its kinda a long haul for us..

    I need to get my CRX to run in the 15's.... 16.1 is such a tease, HAHAHA.
    I guess not bad for a 1.6L motor w/ 100hp at the crank.
    Had fun last week. It was good to meet some of you out there.

    For 1/8 mile, I think you would have to be in the 9s to need a helmet. It still doesn't make sense to me the whole Helmet thing. If on a 1/4 mile 13 seconds requires a helmet, you are most likely going to have a trap speed of around 95+, so they are saying that if you hit the wall you need a helmet. If you have a trap speed of 85, probably high 14s, you don't. So they are saying that if you hit a wall going 85 you are not in danger enough that you need a helmet.
