ok...

i understand what you're running. that's great.
take your car to a road course and run a quick time there too... i doubt it will happen.

you're missing my point.

my car is nicely sorted, and the motor has been rebuilt, and the head worked over and what not. it's got way more done than any other third gen with a b20 still in it this side of a turbo.

my point is that my car is well sorted for both the straight and the corner. that's how i like em.

let not diss my car just b/c i said something against honda..

the point is that i own one. i'm just making a point.

Yes they are all sports cars. Who are you to say there not? Its all opinion right?

Fly What's your Idea of "heavily modded prelude", evidentilly you don't really grasp short lift technology and high RPM? you can still do that with your prelude.
my ass you run low 11s with a FWD car. Unless you have gone nothing short of tubbing the entire car getting it under 1500lbs, are making over 450hp, have skinnies in the rear, and have hop bars in the back, there is absoultely no way on earth you will come into 10second territory.





when your car looks like this, then I will believe you.

my delsol runs mid 11's without a drag conversion and DOHC's car possibly runs lower than that. I can vouge for his above statement. Look guys everyone has a preference, "Honda's can be made fast utilizing low funds" was the only point I was trying to convey. (It all comes down to preference) Again our CRX is a perfect example, and I have not yet finished the drag conversion on that car.

PS- self nu image sounds very familiar, what color is the ITR?

WRONG...





We're running very low 10s @ 25lbs

The Integra is red, Norris also has an all motor SI that is VERY quick, he races that one all over the place as well. The SI is dark purple. Yea, NU Image is a great shop and pretty well known around here.

this isn't about timeslips..

i understand what you guys are saying, and we've both said our parts. i think we can come to some type of agreement there.

i understand the low funds idea, and that works for you...

i'd rather have the rwd car myself, given the budget. there's much more potential going that route...

but that's my opinion...

Perhaps you should take a look at this, a FWD K car doing 10s.

Self: What tires do you utilize to run the low 10's? Not those 17inch rims with low profiles right?

poly...
i understand what you're saying. but how does it handle?

that's my point... i'm saying you would have to build it pretty much purpose built one way or the other with a fwd car.

rwd is a bit more versatile...

that's my point..

i know you can have a fwd car that's quick both ways, but it's usually one or the other...

Who gives a crap what it handles like when it is a 10 sec. car. If you are building it to be that fast, are you going to be taking corners in it? Or, are you going to be draging it?! Exactly!.....Click!

considering this guy doesn't want to have a drag specific car... hmm...

he said what should he buy as the "best stock street racing car"

i don't know about you... but i've been known to drive a street car around corners.

and why not have a car that can handle? that's kinda nice every once in a while.

I don't know, probably not too bad, but I was directing that pretty much at R1-Rider.
