Well we just got the cars yesterday and both of them are running really well...my boy got a H22A VTEC Prelude and I got a B16A VTEC Civic. After I degreased my engine tonight he pulled up in my driveway and asked me to go run on this long road up by my house. I didnt have a problem so we went on the road and started off rolling at about 35mph(it wasnt supposed to be a race) and he sped up to catch me and went ahead a bit so he couldnt fully overtake me so he jumps ahead again and floors it...Im in second and hit vtec at about 6000 I shift to third at about 7800 it seemed as if I was going to get him in third but I didnt i stayed in vtec for all of third and shifted to forth and started braking, by this time I was about half a car behind(my bumper @ his door handle) and he flew ahead and that was done...I had fun...this being my first time "racing" anyone in my car...Im supposed to race another friends sunfire tomorrow...cant wait :iceslolan

Congratulations on your car man. Are you going to change the rims on your car? It must have been a really close race, preludes vtec dont run much faster than civic si 99, its like 15.6 against 15.3, so with your weight advantage (less weight) must be a driver race. Also...shift at 8100, works best...trust me.

Thanks alot mex and pikkagtr I lowered the car tonight she's so sexy now, I cant wait untill I get it licenced so I can go out to the tracks. Mex I tried what you said and it worked out great Im always in VTEC now so I at least feel like Im going faster. Instead of the sunfire today I raced an older eagle talon and I beat him really badly by like 7 cars...we went from a 10 mph roll and I killed him in second I got mid way through third before I shut down at about 70mph and coasted to the end of the same long road...Good times
