Went to drag race today!

[lil_rob]

First time drag racing with a b16b torquless wonder .I've had a b20 gsr head Sir tranny in a EG hatchback and use to go 13,8 @100mph non lsd with winter tires.Type R clutch.I used to rev limiter at 3300rpm then simply dump the clutch and shift second gear as soon as i could then keep gas welded to the floor until i shift so I know i can drive,but things changed.I now own a EK with a b16b,Stage 4 xtd clutch (wich is great up to date) 8 lbs flywheel top fuel intake and 2,25 magnaflow exhaust line(no i still dont have a header).I ran a Shitty 16,3 at best and i Know my problem is at shifting points(no clue of my real Rpm) and Launching...I've tried dumping at 3000,5000,6000 rpms, at
3000 the thing wouldnt move,
5000 a bit better but still...
6000 rpm seems the best up to date but i was scared to break stock axles.I would have tried higher.
So the main question here is Will the stock 36mm axles die with the massive snap of my stage 4 unsprung clutch?Its the first time that i get scared of breaking something while drag racing please reassure me guys

I dont have experience in drag race like you did with ur EG.
But I do own a EG6 also and was on the track last saturday.
I run a B16B also in my Eg, and as I could read from others, the best to pull out with is 5000RPM.

If you feel higher would be better for you, go ahead, I dont think a stock B16B will break stock axles.
I use to pull out @ 8400rpm in first gear, while having the car moving reverse, just for a heavy burnout. And doing this on stock axle at least once a month for 2 yrs, my axles are still good!
