just my opinion on the cars. another thing dodge ownz all domestics
ls1 camaros/firebirds go 160mph + stock

c5 z06 vettes go 170mph+ stock

c6 z06 vettes go 200mph stock

going 120 mph is nothing in a lt1/ls1 camaro firebird.

you know how many corvettes I see on the broke down lane waiting for tow trucks? plenty, I need to go the junkyard to take pictures and show you theratio offords to hondas from being blown, or rusted 100 to 2 I only saw 2 accords in the junk problem rusted exhaust can't pass instection and they are year 91. fords chevy pontiac blown after 3 years out the dealer, reason? doing 100 on the autobahn for too long

I need to do a weekly special, call it the domestic on the tow truck

they are all in the same price range, excuses excuses excuses.

if its not having more cylinders its being boosted, funny that boosted line doesn't work for you and your 15k engine work highly modded civic, DeM Iz Be SmOKiN FooLzZ DaWWg

hey I am not making any excuses for my car, I was making it for the stock si, and rsx
them cobalts and srt dont have ---- on my car, even with mopar upgrades I still rape them. I raced a ss in the 1/4 he ran a 13.93 and I ran a 12.65 and it. srt4 hooked up ran a 14.51 and I ran a 13.63 mis shift and all so no excuses for me

now you're comparing your 15k engine work civic to stock cars, and some with factory 2k upgrades.

you cry foul when someone compares completely stock cars in the same price range, but its fair to compare your fully built 15k+ engine civic to them.

news flash, there was a NA 4 cylinder car in the 80s that was faster than s2ks, rsx type s, itr, ctr, etc... and it was made by OLDSMOBILE.

Olds quad 442, look it up. in the 80s.

180hp NA 4 cylinder in the 80s. ive seen these cars run 14 flat with only free mods.
