Aight people I need your opinions on something. I am flat broke and I have a time limit of 1 week to get 200$ right now I got a INtegra LS 5 speed with Injen air intake and 2 inch cat back exhaust. Also I have on 16 inch wheels and a 96 spec JDM TYpe R suspension at 4 corners. I had a wreck sorta and my alingment is fucked pretty bad. and my camber in the back is horrible. but I can take a 25mph turn at about 55 on my side if I use the both lanes I can take it at about 70 with my rear end sliding abit. I need to make some money fast this guy in a 2000 GSR, lowered, Exhaust, intake, 15 inch wheels, strut tower bar, and camber plates will race me for the money. heh my idea. He has lowered springs and I believe Tokico shocks. not the adjustable. He is an okay driver in a str8 line but he cant take corners he does not know how to heel and toe and before he hits vtec I can keep up. Ive "raced" him before whil ehe had a passanger and I stayed with him untill third gear and he pulled on me steady. The other guy said he wasnt getting on it but he was going full throttle under 6 grand revs from what I could tell. I can heal and toe and I brake ten times better then he does. My steering angle is more precise and everytime we've fucked around on back roads IM always waiting for him to "Go or push it" and I always have to slam on my brakes not to rear end him because hes afraid to take corners but at the time he was in a B16 civic. I told him the only way IDe race him is on back roads and if My car is stripped with no seats except driver. But his car has to have full interior. WIth those odds whats the percentage of me actually winning? If I loose he gets my wheels if I win I get the money. And he seems damn confident. Logically there seems to be no contest but for some reason the suspension i have on seems to hold a higher corner G he just has alotless boddy roll. Ive never gone flat outon back roads because my car seems to float above 110 mph. So what do you guys think? All of you are integra owners of different variations and probably know more about this kinda thing then me. By the way My integra is a 99.

It sounds really stupid to play like that on back roads. So many unexpected things can happen, specially when you are racing under the pressure of loosing your car, or winning big money. I wouldn't risk it honestly.
