That webpage says. "REPRESENTING THE FASTEST N/A 1/4 MILE SPORT COMPACT STREET CLASS CARS IN THE WORLD". So this guy just happenend to run into one of those 23 Cars on the street. Also those cars are all running slicks this guy said that car was very sleeper lookin so thier would be no slicks so that would definetly hurt the times that guy would pull on the street. Also these are times pulled by professional drivers who have had countless trips down the 1320 with lot's of fine tuning and practice. Just cause one of these guys have ripped a mid 11's second 1/4 mile in the car you through me or you behind it we'd be lucky to get into low 12's with 10 trips down the 1320.

It's like me saying cause there are modded 03 Cobra's running in the 9's every modded 03 Cobra on the street runs 9's. It's a one in a million situation your trying suggest.

Im not gonna flame or anything, just state my POV:

Yes, these are purposefully build street cars. Yes theyre on slicks. But these are built for the leagues rules for street cars. Is every 9 second mustang registered in a drag class? No, and neither are hondas/acuras. Its a street car.

Ive met drivers who are damn good and beat the advertised 1/4 mile times for their cars in stock form (absolutely no mods).

and high 12's/low 13's are way different than 11's/ low 12's on a street car.

Hah hah by no means am i looking for a domestic/import arguement, because by no means am i bias. I just stated a fact that there are 12 second all motor hondas out there.

I agree that those are rare and the actual ones you linked will most likely NOT be found on streets. HOWEVER, there will be a very fast import every now and then, so I don't don't see why domestic owners get their panties all in a bunch over such stories. The majority of the time American Muscle, mostly Cobras, Z28s, Trans Ams, and Vipers too obviously, will dominate. sucks, but thats just how it is

By the way I dont hate domestics, except for convertible 94-98 GTs. (personal thing). I actually like Trans Ams and Z28s. And actually most of the people that were shocked were imports, so that statement wasn't really directed at anybody in here... I was just saying.

A guy that I know, through his brother, has a supercharged 99 cobra and he is putting down 466whp (with other mods). He should be beating everything on the road (this is south alabama) right? He's never been to the track, and all we have is 1/8th mile anyway, but if he did, and he showed people his timeslip they would probably think he was n/a with minor bolt ons. He absolutely sucks at driving. I think that it's pretty safe to say that It's hard to keep traction in a car with 400+hp and even more torque, so I can't blame it all on his bad driving. I wouldn't do any better. But everyone can agree that it would be hard to hook up the mustang in the story.

I don't know about ls/vtecs in integras, but most EG and EK civics with LS/vtec setups dip into the high 13s with a relatively decent driver and in stock form. If this guy is modded, I don't know because the link didn't work, then he could be tapping into the high-mid 13s. So I think the story is feasable. I don't believe it, but that's just because the link doesn't work

Re: 03 cobra vs n/a integra !!!!

OK kiddies, I'm only gonna say this once so listen close and focus.

I am so sick and tired of BOTH SIDES of this pathetic argument over Domestic vs. Import BS! I was out building cars when most of you were in diapers and I had to listen to retarded rednecks go through this same BS with the whole Ford vs. Chevy vs. Mopar crap.

Things never change I swear. Just a whole new generation of #%tards.

First off, you pulling off a list of sponsored RACE cars that are all stripped, gutted and modded to the hilt and NOT running pump gas and then saying that "There are cars Hondas out there that can run 11's and 12's all motor" only on the merit of race cars would be like me saying linking you to an NHRA site to the Pro Stock section and saying, "LOOK there really are all motor 7.89 second Fords and Chevy's out there!"

I'm sorry I'm getting so worked up about this but DAMN guys!!! Don't some of you even THINK before you post? Or do you think that the rest of us on this board are so stupid that we can't tell you're full of it?

Out here in Japan I have worked on some imports that would turn most people back stateside WHITE and back home in Seattle I PERSONALLY have built some cars that most of you import owners will never touch.

And STOP with the "I have a buddy with a..." crap. Every damn thread on this place seems to have at least 5 of them.

There, I'm done ranting. Sorry if I offended anyone.

I like it how you call somebody a redneck... You probably built the 1700 hp Supra or Skyline or whatever... I don't care...Sometimes rednecks build the fastest 1/4 car's on the face of the earth. You don't have to LIKE it, but please RESPECT it...

Dude watch your flames and dont be making attacks on me. Im not a fucking 1mp0rt b0i and im not one of those rednecks you refer to either. I made a point that there are street hondas that run in the 12's. And believe it or not a handful of them run 93 octane. There are ls/vtec's and crvtecs out there that are putting out 300+ naturally aspirated horsepower. Hell the S2000 is making what-240? When youre running a stripped car (thats a personal choice by the way) it doesnt take much to get flying (of course this depends on the car...a stripped caddy isnt going to help much).

One more thing, why the flying furry f#$% would you say "sorry if i offended anyone" after making quite an offensive post??

300 to 345 hp in a 4000 lb car isnt bad

Because his intentions werent to flame like you his intentions was to give his 2 cents. Maybe you should have read it instead of flaming it. he wasnt personally attacking he was stating his opinions as everyone is allowed to do.

Show me one. No one, to my knowledge has hit over 300 wheel hp N/A in a B series, very close, but not there yet.

I had to search their forum to find the thread, since the link is not working anymore.

Even if it was built to the gills, or a B16A2 or whatever that ricer crap means... he shouldn't get 6 lengths on him.
This is the funniest thing I saw, had me going. Anyway, it isn't an unbelieveable story by any means (except the 5-6 car lengths), but, I don't think it is true. My theory is, it is a Integra owner playing around, you know reverse psychology. Reason being, the poster posted it on the 14th of January and hasn't been back to it.

And GTR2b, that's pretty ghey to go off like you're some OG builder, and then escentially(sp) call out others that offer expertise with no proof.

His entire post was flames in my opinion. Offense is in the eye of the reader.

Exactly, it was about 289 to the wheels. Don't go around quoting BS shit, as if there are a bunch of these running the streets, you give all of us that live in reality a bad name.
