Turbo civic #2
I haven’t got around to posting this yet, but I have a race from last week. Me and my friend (701-3000GT on here) were driving in his car and we saw some guys that we kind of know driving around in the one guy’s turbo hatch civic. I don’t think they really recognized us because it has been a while since we have seen them because they went off to college and were only back for spring break. Anyways we messed around back and forth a little but then we pulled up next to them and asked if they wanted to race a Saturn lol. They said sure and followed us to get my car, and when we got to it I asked him about the hatch and he said it has a b16 with other mods and I believe he said a 57 trim turbo. He also said people with that same or similar setups were pushing 300hp at the wheels, but he hasn’t had it dyno’d yet. Anyways, we ended up going from a 30ish roll over a bridge. So I honked 3 times and we took off, I held him off until I had to shift to 3rd, at which point he was just getting spooled in 3rd and as soon as I shifted he pulled about a car and a half on me instantly. I slowed his pull just a little through 3rd and shifted to 4th at a little above 95 with him still pulling. I stood on the gas for just a couple more seconds and let off at about 105 with him about 5 cars up. We slowed down and pulled over after we got off the bridge and complimented each other’s cars and just talked for a minute. After that we went our own separate ways…until a few nights later where we met them again for some more races, but I will save those to post tomorrow…..
