Glad you did well, was going to tell you you should be fine but I see you already did the race. Nice of him to tell you about the mods beforehand

I hate saying this and I still hate Honda but he has given me somewhat of a respect for a mildly built one. You can swap a K20 with mild mods into a hatch and smoke through third while catching fourth. When you see a built trans am get taken out by a little **** box honda it will make you think twice before racing one the next time. With that said I still hate them and don't feel safe riding around in his little **** boxes on wheels, at least I feel safe in a VW my choice for an import.

4x4 Heavy Dakota Truck vs. Mildly Moded Honda Vtech

and we have a weeaaannnnnner!

4x4 Heavy Brick!

Pathetic

i raced an Si Honda Civic with a little hot *** blond driving it. I thought it was a guy, pulled up next to me while i was in the turning lane to pick up my GF, pulled up next to me and rolled down her window. My eyes went from -_- to 0_0 she said "you sure you dont want to go again" of course in my mind im thinking, hell yess i want to!!! if i let you win do i get you as a prize for the night? But i told her "na im good have to go get my gf"

but we raced 2 times. 1 dig and a 30 punch and i annihilated the p.o.s. This was before most of the mods i have now to.

*Sigh* What did I get myself into here? I'm a new guy. I have an '01 Dak 3.9 2wd, which has been fairly problematic since I bought it new, I just bought a Honda Civic LX for my wife last week (based on every single report I could find, it is The Best in its class). Now I am reading about racing between the two?....*On The Street??!!*

I hate Jap cars. But they can be quick. My best friend has a 96 ex turbo'd at 12 psi i believe and it makes 250 horse w/ a single cam 1.6. 250 hp is a lot when it weighs like 2500 pounds.
