He does have a point, though. I have seen so many N/A guys bragging about beating SIs, but I have never seen it myself.

I never lost to an Si in my GXL, no matter how much *** **** they had done to it.

Find a nice one with a turbo thats not all gaudy and its a different story. I might almost like it then.

Is your GXL stock? I should have been more clear that I was talking about stock ones. If yours is stock, then color me surprised...lol. I have 3 friends with SIs, and they will all beat stock TIIs. The one that is still N/A will beat my modded TII. I am not saying that all SIs are fast, or that those ghetto-ified ones are sweet...I am just talking about my friends' cars.

Ah yes, the almighty Civic. Eeewwww, gives me goosebumps. Had one line up to my left last nite at a light, so right before the light turns I rev to 4000 because I'm not going to have his chump *** chirpin' his ***** in front of me. T
There was also a 2nd gen Eclipse with the token windshield sprayer lights to my right.
Neither one of them bit. Some of the brightest ricers I've come across yet.

I can't believe the guys with the vipers are talking trash to the honda driver.....duhhhhhh how would nhra handle that? spot the honda like half the track? then the honda would have another kill...hehehe amazing how those guys who spend 60K on their cars think they're real tuners. i hate vipers and think they look rice, stupid crappy looking flared fenders....they really look like rice. also everybody making excuses about the vette guy not being able to drive is LAME. who cares if the smartass punk has 4000 horsepower, it's don't count if he can't make it go fast.

That Civic runs at a minimum low 12's... He's dropped 18 grand in mods alone. He took MD for a hundred bucks, which isn't much at all. I tried to get him to run me in my FD, but he would never respond.
