Re: ever scared to race someone

hehe well in reply to the reading comp comment, my spelling and grammer could use a lot of work also :P but ya my friend at misawa airforce base, his civic has a civic engine not a swap, not sure what model it is tho cause he took off all the badges. and in japan civic are not really compact cars, well they are but have you seen some of the small subarus... thoes are compact, like 6 feet long :P ... nothing in the states compares to them, but if they had them in the states you would see them modded up lol

Well where i'm from, in the midwestern states, if you have an import, you have to mod the hell out of it, or you're going to get lauged off the street/track by a muscle/domestic majority race crowd. And around here, you aren't even considered fast unless you're running in the 11/12's.

pretty much how it should be.

and by modding you meant performance right? cause thats how it should be to compete for real nowadays.

Yeah, pretty much any car with a body kit is frowned upon around here, even if it looks somewhat nice. Around here it's all mostly about performance.

Re: ever scared to race someone

nah not really.. I always tend to try to catch the fly by's when I'm not racing.

Awhile ago I left from a stop sign and I kid you not this cutty must've had 40-50 mph on me, wasn't paying attention in my rear view. Oh well, I was catching him looked down and saw 105-110 and it was near cop land so I said screw it.

Then just last night mid to late 60's stingray vette, guy laughing I was like yeah sure. Sounded like he had a cam it loped, but still I let him have it and murdered him from the light

maybe he'll think twice before laughing... but like someone said always something faster then you. Money talks!

Re: ever scared to race someone

driftkid, was just joking around with my comment cause if you cant tell i really do spell like shite and my grammer is umm lowsey, was say that to say i can under stand how someone might misconstru what i said.

mason, that is what i am used to in cali, you see a car there it is either a expensive car or a civic with who knows what done to it :P cause you just cant trust stickers in la area, here in japan you might see a modded car that is a dx civic, but unlike ca it will either say dx or have no badges and it WILL be faster then ya think :P

It's funny that most of the Civic owners here are the biggest JDM wanna-be's, and the Civics are what are the econo-shit boxes over there, not like aren't over here, either. I don't care what you have in a Civic, they are still econoboxes. You get them because they are cheap to buy, insure and modify. That means you're on a budget economy, and bought an econobox. If you had money would you buy a Civic? No.

This is why many zit faced, young punks and Julio's buy these cars.

I don't know why you'd be scared of something that cost less than my transmission. I guess they are fast because they bought a 500 dollar shitbox and put what they would have spent on a well built platform into mods or something.
