Racing with an Auto
 

So I've got an AT 92 Civic LX... and I've done a few things such as AEM intake, exhaust, but what I want to know is what the best method for racing would be. Granted I'm not going to win too many races, but I'd like to stay next to my friend's 96 Civic DX (with similar mods) which is a manual.

I've heard anything from straight out floor it all the way to start in neutral and rev it up to X RPM and then drop it into drive while flooring it, etc. Anyway what's the method that yields the best results without f$#king up the car?

Peace.

absolutely no offense.. i mean this in the NICEST way it can be taken...

don't waste your time...

^...

beyond that .... DO NOT rev your engine in neutral and drop it into gear...

better stall converter.

unless you want broken motormounts. installing an additional medium sized tranny coolr will help quite a bit but not to the extent a manual will do.

level10 touque converters are ment to be good,

absolutely no neutral drops...it messes up your transmission

grind grind... yes :| but hey, if you really want to, go for it. that way you can have an excuse to buy a manual transmission then boom, there you go

Yeah I figured... just floor it and get a new car in a few years. Or I could get NOS and punch it the whole time. mwhahahahah :bandit:

100th post :cool:

*nitrous* please but as far as the racing an auto yes its pointless i have one and it just doesnt go!:mad:

save ur money up rahter than do mods now, then in 5 years go buy an even nicer car......at least tahts my plan

Yeah I know, I'm done with mods now. I wouldn't put NOS on an AT. :no:

Y not Nos a auto?

because in general honda automatic trasmisions are extremely ass... they are not meant to keep the car in the powerband nor are they intended to handle ANY real power...

they are just completely lacking

Yeah... that ;)
