Default OO Honda Civic....

Well I would have to say this was the easiest WIN I ever had. Because I didnt even have to give it THROTTLE!

Well I was just cruising down the road with my girlfriend & couple of her friends and this Honda Civic pulls up next to me & gives me an annoying fart can rev. I look over give a little laugh and maintain my speed. Then he really starts trying to get me to budge by giving it a little throttle and slowing down. I smile & maintain my speed. With that not impressing me.... haha he slows down to my rear bumper and floors it and he BARELY gets up to my front bumper with me maintaining my speed. all the girls start laughing their asses off. & I just say "well thats a Honda Civic for you" dont think his VTEC kicked in YOOO.

If the street wasnt so hot with cops I would of gave it throttle to shut his ricer *** up. But I feel like I still got the win for not trying... haha he pulled off the street after that embarrassing run.
Sorry not really a street race or KILL. but thought it was a funny race.

thats one in 100.. we had imports vs domestics last night at our local track. one civic in the 12's, all 30 of the others were in 16's.

how many of those 120+ trap speed civic's are street legal?
bc I'm sure they all are track legal only. not only that but they spent an arm and a leg to get there. when all it takes for us is a head/cam swap.

haha yea def the truth right there.... how many Civics do you see in the 12's or better. & if they are its not your "normal" civic.

no the Civic didnt beat me... if you read correctly it didnt pass my front bumper. which it really wasnt an "actual" race like I also mentioned... because I didnt get on the throttle fully. I was just mentioning that it BARELY got to my front bumper. it took it forever... just didnt get why his DUMB *** would even try to push me..

yep very true. even stock performance LS1 can get into the high 12's with some good tires & a good driver....

yea they sure are fast from a 90mph roll, because we all know damn well that every civic that traps 120+ does about 14.99 at the track because they dont know how to build a car all around, as long as it has a sick loud BOV its considered legit by all the import guys.

OP, we had the same thing happen at a local spot.

There was about 5 real cars (well done Mustangs/F-bodies) and 2 ricers heading out to run.

We're all crusing at about 65 and this fart can comes up to me, downshifts and starts to go, he never even got to my front bumper before I lost interest.

In all seriousness it doesn't take much money/effort to make an 11s Civic, if you know what you're doing.

so you're saying you did get on the throttle, just not "fully" and he barely got past you.
