Almost Another Good Race

I WAS OUT FRIDAY NIGHT JUST CRUSING THE HIGHWAY LOOKING FOR A RACE. WENT A COUPLE MILES AND DECIDED TO TURN AROUND A HEAD HOME. JUST AS I WAS ALMOST TO MY EXIT A CRX COMES FLYING ON THE HWY. I SPED UP PAST HIM, THE HE CAUST UP WITH ME. WE DID THE CUSTOMARY GLANCE AND WE TOOK OFF. WE'RE GOING ABOUT 100MPH BUT WE HAD TO SLOW DOWN DUE TO A CURVE THAT SNUK UP ON US. IT WAS PRETTY COOL SINCE I'M RUNNUNG A BONE STOK 70HP '90 HB CIVIC. WELL A LITTLE WAS UP THE HWY A MR-2 TURBO COMES FLY UP BESIDE ME WHILE THE CRX AND I ARE CRUSING. WAS ABOUT TO BE A 3 CAR RACE UNTIL A STATE TROOPER PULLED OFF FROM THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND GOT IN FRONT OF US. THE RACE WAS RUINED, SO WE ALL WENT OUR SEPARATE WAYS.

same night went up aginst a yellow cavalier, you know the one with shiny rims, think a special 2 door model, but we went about 1/8 mile and i sorta kept up with him. anyone know the rating on those cavaliers?

I say be happy for that state trooper cuz that mr-2 turbo would have had butchered both of you.They are pretty quik.

I'M SURE THAT JUST ABOUT ANYONE WOULD HAVE BEAT ME BUT WOULD HAVE BEEN A GOOD RACE, EVEN FROM A DISTANCE :eek2:

so you have the std model hb or the dx? if you have the dx you have around 90 hp and was it an hf crx?

I HAVE A STANDARD :cry: WISH IT WAS A DX. NOT SURE ABOUT THE CRX. IT HAD THESE BIG 17" YELLOW RIMS IN THE BACK WITH STANDARDS ON THE FRONT...NOT REALLY SURE WHO WON THAT RACE, BUT I KEPT UP WITH HIM ALMOST SIDE BY SIDE.

it was probaly an hf then what you got planned for you hb? anything special?

GETTING A PART TIME JOB SO THAT I CAN GET A B18C-R WTH A JACKSON SUPERCHARGER @ 12PSI. THOUGHT ABOUT A K20A BUT FROM THE PEOPLE THAT I ASKED, THEY SAID THAT IT WAS HARD AND EXPENSIVE....BUT SOMEONE SELLING A K20A ON EBAY SAID THEY PUT ONE IN A CRX, MABEY THEY WERE JUST TRYING TO SELL THE ENGINE TO 4THG'S. BUT IT'S ONLY 10 HP MORE THAN THE B18C-R. FOR ONLY A SECOND I THOUGHT ABOUT A B16 BUT PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS GETTING B16'S AND DRESSING THEM UP IN TYPE-R PARTS, WHY NOT JUST SAVE UP AND GET THE REAL THING

what kind of part time job? man whore? drug dealer? cuz seriously the c5 gonna cost you like 4-5 grand installed maybe more then another 3 for the supercharger if it will fit its gonna take you like 5-6 years to save up for that shyt.....

MAN WHORE...FUNNY :hehehe: NO, MY PLAN IS WENDYS :p . I MAKE $400 A WEEK AT MY FULL TIME JOB AND THAT'S ALL BILLS AND DAYCARE (ANOTHER OBSTICAL: A WIFE AND TWO KIDS) BUT THE MONEY I MAKE PART TIME IS ALL ME, ALSO HAVE ANOTHER PART TIME JOB MAKEING $12 AT HOME DOING DISIGN WORK. ALL IN ALL I SEE ABOUT 2 YEARS WORTH OF WORK, MABEY LESS. DID I MENTION INCOME TAX WITH TWO KIDS :sun:

lucky you didn't get yanked by the trooper..
i got nail for 140 in a 60.. was supposed to be arrested and so on .. but i talked my way into a really really big ticket.. somewhere around $700 if i remember correctly.. and i haven't gotten a ticket since.. lol ..

It cracks me up how people think they talk the police into stuff. they have heard it all, no new info is going to change an already made up mind. You got lucky the cop was lazy and didnt feel like writing up an arrest report and having to transport you to the jail and have you booked in. just my 2cents.

B18c' are a super pain to find and very expensive. I actually belive it would be cheaper and easier to get a k20 or an h22

THE POLICE CAR WAS ABOUT 5 CAR LENGTHS IN FRONT OF US WHEN HE GOT ON, SO I GUESS IF HE WAS PAYING ATTENTION HE COULD HAVE GOT US, MABEY.:confused:

THE B18C ISN'T QUITE THAT HARD TO FIND, JUST THAT A WHOLE LOT OF PEOPLE WANT IT, THAT'S THE PROBLEM. ABOUT THE K20A, I DON'T THINK THAT'S BE WORTH THE MONEY BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION IS ON THE OTHER SIDE AND YOU HAVE TO PUT THE ENGINE INFROM BELOW INSTEAD OF FROM THE TOP.

i hate the way the new engines look, anyone else feel me?

I DON'T EITHER (PROBABLY B/C I DON'T HAVE ONE) THE ONLY THING I REALLY LIKE IS THE HEADER COVER. OTHER THAN THAT, LOOKS LIKE A HORIZONTAL S2000 ENGINE, SORTA
