I dont know what your civic runs, Lets say at very best it could run in the 9-10's I wouldnt be that far behind you, I have never turned down a race you never know what will happen. My mazda, It's not crazy fast, We have just been working on it, all the little stuff, plus a turbo kit It has a small turbo so It has wild low end to about 140ish than it kinda dies off, it will still do over 200 but not as fast. And I dont think you know what i'm saying, Acivic has never beat me, But there is nothing in this town that is like a fast furious car. I know there are fast civics out there. Most people with civics think beacuse it says honda it will beat everything on the road. What do you run?

i have about $4k in my $650 honda and with about 4k more i will be in the 12s with a built b18c1, hondas arent incredably fast they are just fun to build, and easy as hell to work on, i like them.

that s10 is pretty cool, i wonder how fast it is.. and if it would keep up with a v8 s10.. traction must be a bitch with those wonderful no rear weight, leaf suspension, and that one even had radials.

my daily driver is a 96 mazda b2300 and even with a 75 shot it is slow.

My truck in my opinoin is awesome. But when you race it is hard, all it does is spin. I can lay ruber posi at 120
Thats wild. but if i get good tires and about 300lbs in the back it will go.

Ya, sounds like an idea. And when I'm done I'll drop it off at your place.

lemme see if i'm am hearing you right. you're going 120. and you punch it. you spin the tires? BULLLLLLSHIT.

with only 475hp? you're crazy. whats the torque numbers on that engine you built. with 500ft-lbs, cruising at 55mph. i can shift down from 4th and spin a couple times, with big *** tires but with skinny tires i can spin forever (i've done it before and almost crashed). but @ 120. if you spin the tires you're going to crash.

he has no weight over the rear axle, on a stock ranger (90hp even less torque to the rear wheels) in the rain it will spin at 75 mph in 4th gear.. not a good idea to do that btw.

Well in my original post I was talking about an S10 with the factory motor which is without a doubt a turd. If I threw a blown 454 in my tiny *** Civic I would be a force to be reckoned with.

I was just messin with you anyways. As of today my Civic is no longer. It underwent some major surgery and will never be driven again. Most of the parts that were on it are for sale in the classified section.
