******* honda guys...haha I like the first 10 pages or so are cocky. They swear its racing a mustang(which obviously theres no such thing as a good dragstrip mustang ) Then they hear a story of a 10 second mustang walking all over a b16 ex hatch, and they get all mellancholy...then they start to rebuild confidence (There can only be one or two mustangs in the world putting out more than 300hp, right?) Then smack. lost to a 7. "Must be one mean RX7 to beat an FWD POST like that huh..."

Whatever. Rx7 > Civic in every-single way. Period. If you don't believe me, watch Pinks and find out for yourself.

Second race – we “take the bottle out” give them 2 lengths, they bog, tony rips them out of the hole, car slows down at the beginning of the track, the rx7 pulls off the win?
Third race, tony tries to do a 3rd gear burnout, the car can barely spin the tires. He launches, the race is over, RX7 wins
Fourth race, we think the motor is done, I hustle as many lengths as we can, the car is going nowhere. We lose the car.
Torn intercooler coupler is deemed the problem! So even when you think you have your **** together, the simplest and stupidest crap goes and kicks your ***!!

Sorry I'm a little late coming into this conversation, but isn't that the show where they race and give the other car so many car lengths to make it fair. Then at the four race they hope they have worked out the lengths for the head starts and they hope to have a some what close race?

ONE IS FASTER THAN THE OTHER SO HE THINKS THAT HE NEEDS SOME SPACE. sometimes they cheat. the first one i saw the guy was running low boost always smoking this car. the other car wanted more space so when they ran the slow car won. but on the last run the other guy ran high boost and smoked him even with 5 car lengths

I just read the thread and I didn't realize that the negotiations were the biggest part of this competition and the race was second. I guess this is the only way to make it fair when you have to very different cars lining up. It just leaves a lot to trust between the two racers, I would be worried that someone might sand bag a few runs just to get the head start they need to win.
I'll have to keep my eye out for the next time this is on Speed.
Thanks

when they did the Go-kart races they didnt do a drag, so something like a time attack could be an option for the show

The car itself is beautiful but those wheels do not belong.
Those rims are like a 400lb behemoth dancing at Rick's in Seattle. Seriously.

Post whoring what? Look at my post count, pendejo.
Did I not say the car itself was beautiful? Those wheels just do not belong on a 7 besides an FD.
Besides, if you don't like it, pinche mensa, just put me on ignore. It's not hard.
But hey, don't go away angry, just go away! Life's too short to be retarded.
