I dont know if she was reving too much but it looked like a normal track mishap to me.
How many steps to heaven, Doc?
...Ah, metaphysics.
I gotta add, it was a pretty clean CRX too. Nothing "ricer" about it.

I thought so too, that wasn't a bad looking CRX. Looked like it was pretty quick too.
Have a good one,

I don't get it how people claim she's a "ricer". She obviously has looks and power, specially with the turbo.
Does seem like she was revving her engine WAY too much though. The guy in the Mercury didn't rev until it was time to go. Could that have been why it blew?
I have a question... are those wide ass slicks on the back of her car?
Atleast she was smart enough to get out of the groove almost right away.

Skinnies. Smaller less wide tires on the back.

Gotta love that. Every thread on there turns into a big flame fest between a bunch of know nothings.

uhh no those were drag radials on the back.

to me she is a ricer because
A) you don't need to insanely rev til 9 grand pulling up to the line
and
B) they sure do look like drags on the back
Two wrongs don't make a right. Unless you're Chuck Norris.
Then two wrongs make a roundhouse kick to the face.
if she had the slicks on the back, one would assume she thought it was rwd... yet she pulls the front wheels into the water to do her burnout...
they are skinnies in the rear...

thank you
No you must be wrong! I'm sure she was able to put together a turbo CRX but is totally incapable of knowing where Drag radials should be on a FWD car. *end sarcasm*

my guess is she was trying to spool the turbo up before she actually got started, but it didnt work out to well, (i dont know anything about turbos, just a guess)

News flash folks: WHEN YOU PUSH A CAR TO THE LIMIT, SOMETIMES THEY BLOW UP! Hell, read the Boost or Nitrous forums here for examples of that.
Yes, they are skinnies.
I won't comment on the driver revving like that at the line, but I'm SURE everyone here is such an expert Pro-Stock driver that they've never done anything "wrong" on the track.
TROOOOOO
sucks for the civic...was a decent car and def far ahead of most people here who will talk crap on it. just the facts.
as for this post........ in a nut shell =
I must be a ricer a because my turbo blew up on my SE-R after being pushed passed 14 PSI for a long time.

i havent watched the vid yet. 56gay > me... but you guys are saying she was revving all to hell at the line? Im assuming she has a programmed computer that has a launch control like my car has. Floor it and itll stick at 5000 rpms until you let go of the clutch then itlll take off like a beast and you stay at 5 k until about 8 mph then you go from there.
