Closest race Ive been in.

This guy's car is fast I must say:

http://www.modinstructions.com/showt...G-vs-H22-Civic

He has a built bottom end, cams, and 50 shot. All done himself along with the tuning. My mods are in my sig.

e55
I think your e55 is a tad slow.

89 mph in the 1/8th with those mods is really bad. You should be at least 93mph.

And I had a turbo h22 hatch before so dont think Im hating on the Civic, just an observation from your sig.

Might be the cleanest Civic in the world, but at the end of the day it is a Civic that also happens to sound like a Hyabusa. Pull up to valet in that turd! Your benz is a heavy, luxury sedan. That is a stripped down tin can.

Oh I don't deny that at all but I just value a person who can make their cars look clean and go fast approprately...I of course would never own that but hey its his fun car. My fun car is just slightly more expensive and comfortable...lol

Was trying to get my friend to race me too with his HPF Stage 2 M3...but he wouldn't of course he'd beat me but I wanted to see him running without meth because I think it'd be a good race.

damn Hadi-
I wish we had that much interstate room to run !! In Atl, you are lucky to have 2-3 car lengths at any given time. Unless it is 3 a.m. !!! Then all that is out is cops !!
Nice run,. Your car sounded great.

How bout these 10 year old design 2 ton boats. All the money the ricer has spent and with just pulley and a tune you held up nice.

^^This guy doesn't sugarcoat anything, but he does speak the truth. I can't talk smack about Civics because my mom drives one. My mom drives a Civic. Mom...Civic. I won't go near my brother's university in my mom's Civic.
