Def Fake. The guys over at team integra had the same engine, only on an Integra. And later revealed it was a fake.

Looks fake to me.

- As Boing82 said look at the front, more specifically look to the right of the left headlight, blurred.

- The rest of the car is pixelelated, but the reflextion of the engine... very clean, not very hard to do that with photoshop, sff900, cut, transparency, flip, tilt, and maybe redish tint.

- CRX = Front Wheel Drive, so no idea why the slicks are on the back tire.

So I think it's fake.

The only way to make a motor like that fit into that car would be to convert it to rear wheel drive. Plus any real dragster will be rear wheel drive. So that doesn't prove it fake. But you have a point with the other stuff.

That yellow blur is tellin me its photoshoped hard. The reflection in the hood is pretty good if it is photoshoped. There is a slight reflection in the winshield of the engine, but that looks a lil fake. Speaking of which, I have never seen glass on a dragster before, wouldn't that be kind of dangerous? Also notice the spots of light on the ground under the car, it does't seem that light would be able to pass through the small gap, and come out in that shape. I don't watch drag racing much, but are you supposed to have treaded tires on the front? And how would gain access to to other workings of the engine. You would think that they wouldn't have kept the stock hood! And where are the rollcage tubes and other saftey equipment? Point out any errors that I have made because there has to be a couple. Based on the information that I believe is true I think that is fake.

Actually, there IS a CRX with a Chevy small block, converted to RWD. Just not the one in that pic.

Fake

ok, lookl at the reflection on the door, now normally if the car was on an angle the reflection would still be straight, but it isnt its on an angle with the car, meaning the car was standing perfectly flat when the picture was taken. Plus a crx wouldnt be able to take that kind of weight in the front, no not possible ever.

Wow. that was mean ! Who pissed in your Kool Aid?

That statement does make sense though. As evil as it may be. That time isnt incredibly fast for the amount of work that seems to have gone into that CRX.

Hell, my Accord does the 1/4 in 12.3





















minutes

actually sorry to say that is a real car. Its just one Sh!tty ass picture. About a year ago when I first bought my car I was looking for ideas for what to do to my CRX. I went to some website that had a whole bunch of CRX's in it then I stumbled across that... needless to say that was an end to my idea stealing... But I've seem about 10 pictures of the same car i will try to find the website if it is still up....
