Impressive driving on his part.
(WARNING: I'm not a Civic fan by any means) It just proves that you could be driving a shitbox, but if you're a good driver, you can keep up (not HANG) with the faster cars.

Re: Civic Type-R Vs Lotus Elise

absolutely loved it. Didn't think that a civic could hangle that well. Also, that was a great driver.

Re: Civic Type-R Vs Lotus Elise

you dont need to downshift through all of the gears going into corners, nor do u need to hit the rev limiter for 2 seconds before shifting. nice shifting?? wtf???!
