Anyone know what the quickest N/A civic on road tyres is? ( with out NOS )

High 13's is a decent time generally.

If youre talking street legal tyres at full weight, there was a guy from NI with bolt-ons and kpro running mid 13's

I think a stripped out, cammed up EP on good tyres is a low 13's car though.

Hi,
Could do with some advise reference today's track times.

Standard 03 ep3 (177k :P ) rear seats out with dc cat back and k&n poophoon.
Standard road Tyres.

At Ellington TOTB sat practice.

Best 14.6 with 60 @2.3 but my terminal seems really low @ 94mph.

As going to pod in 2weeks is there anything simple that can be done added to improve. And does the terminal seem low??

And is there any detriment to running semi slicks and where I'd best place to buy??

Cheers
Paul
