[QUOTE="ArmedSuspect, post: 14344265, member: 153570"] the other week i managed to run into the "big dog" Civic in my area. we've been trying to get together for a few weeks and never seem to work it out. ALL of the local import guys wanted me to line up with this car, as he is the only one they say had a chance against the Cobra. looking at the race on paper... numbers weren't on my side but i'm not a Pro Bench Racer so i decided to see what would happen. taking a scenic drive up to Canada we found some open road to have a little fun. first run was from a dig and boy did i get murdered. never before had i raced from a light and it clearly showed. Civic got out on me from go and i wasn't going to get it back. i accepted defeat and just let out. second run was a 30 roll. i started in second and it was even for the first bit then he started pulling away. that little car is fast as hell. much respect to the owner, builder, tuner, etc. i'm impressed with how well it runs. can't roll the windows down, no horn or anything but damn if it isn't fast! somewhere in all of this i blew my FRPS and ended up setting on the side of the road for several hours until we could get the part from a friends car to get me home. don't know when it blew but after the roll race i drifted to a small gravel area and the car shut off... didn't restart. getting info out of the owner about his car is next to impossible. he's a great dude and he will talk about anything and everything... EXCEPT his mods. **speculation and rumors** gave me this: curb weight under 2,300lbs built K24 block built K20 head supercharged, 9psi professional dyno tune est. 390whp drag radial (confirmed ;-)) i'm running ported, pullied with all the normal stuff and full weight... less spare tire / jack. and because i'm not a sore looser: VIDEO BITCHES!!! dig [youtube_browser]x0DGus247A0[/youtube_browser] roll [youtube_browser]2Wa5Y1K1_fM[/youtube_browser] .
