I SAY BS. A B16 Hatchback would of killed you even if it were stock. The NA rx-7 aren't that fast and with your mods compared to his, he definitely beat you. I have been around a lot of hondas and raced a lot with my 91 NA, and I never could beat a B16 Sir II Hatch. Yes, it was the jdm, but the us b16 isnt that much different. Its pretty close. If it was a 2000 civic si coupe, I might believe you if your car had a good running engine, but if its a swapped hatch, I call bs. seriously. you dont need to lie to kick it.

Either the Civic doesn't have the engine he claims he does, or you're bad at making things up. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt, but a b16 swapped hatch would have owned you. Less weight, and a good bit more power = you lose.

I raced a 99ish SI with mods, not sure what, and stayed about even or he might have taken about a half car from 70-105. That's the end of third and somewhat into fourth.

I'm guessing the dude had full exhaust + headers, and maybe some kind of computer, cause normally I can take them by around a car or two.

I also had a bunch of **** in my hatch, full bag of clothes and ****, but he also had a passenger.

That SI was loud as ****, too, heard it EASILY over my car. My mods in sig.

I couldn't talk to the guy cause we took different exits off the highway.

It was pretty cheap b/c the body is an absolute piece of ****. Its got black fenders, hood, and front bumper. The rest is turquoise.

I think it is the funniest thing in the world to see him walk Mustang GT's. I'm not saying it's stupid fast, it just looks so wrong lol.

I'm more worried about the Full Race turbo kit sitting in his closet lol.

I don't know what kinda crack some people are on but my 1990 CB7 bone stock accord with 177,xxx miles will get to 120 on the freeway with no problem. Maybe it has 130hp, but it also weighs a few hundred pounds more than a hatchback civic..

If you don't know ****, then don't say ****.

I said got damn, GOT DAMN!
