im sure alot of ppl with some decent power can burn through all gears, hell i've redlined till top of second until i let off just to lay a fun patch. but that's not the problem, you need the magical thing called traction. Power is nothing with out traction, hell i can build a 3,000 hp engine and drop it in a civic and it would do no good if i couldnt get that power to the groud.

look for suspension up grades and a better tire, mostly a street slick. for suspension talk to spohn about what you need. i dont know much about that stuff really, although i will be doing my suspension build up this winter.
