its an impressive car non the less, I like it, and the trend in my area for street racing has been from a roll so its good at how most people street race in the tc.

Than don't build a FWD racecar. :-\ However, there are plently of 10 second Hondas. My point is that video just proves that Hondas are becomming more and more ricer dyno queens who don't care about performance but instead dyno number.


That kid is nothing but a ricer with money. And a bad driver at that.

You mean you're not supposed to bounce off of the rev limiter for a few seconds before you shift???? Oops...

He's an "okay" guy, and I would have built the car very differently, but oh well. Still quicker than anything I've ever ridden in... oh wait, no it's not.

that guy was only at the track once, i don't know if we'll ever see him there, so are some tc crew guys actually going to go to the track with me this year?

im starting to wonder why you even come to this website. every other post from you is against FWD/honda's/imports. and i know this isn't a "Honda Website", but no one here is going around talking trash about american cars.

???

the car is fast. the driver sucks/is a ricer. no need to bash on the car.

Why is it that you doubt a light weight economy car gets 25mpg, but you drive a heavy V8 "muscle car" that you claim to be getting the same MPG? ??? I don't even think my old stock automatic Accord got that good of mileage. I think your odometer is off because that has to be a world record or something. :l
