You know the funny thing is I was showing someone your car on You Tube when you ran 10.87....I then saw a Silverado 1500 make a 10.5 run.......I realized it was one of the mechanic's at Vengenace Racing ( Charlie ) truck.....I was simply amazed at his truck and your car.

I am so confused about all this forced induction..turbo's, S/C's etc...... I havea Duramax 2500 HD and it has 28 lbs of boost and nowhere near the speed.....My friend has a Honda Civic with 9 lbs of boost and it flies.

This little Honda cars are amazing in that they are relatively cheap to build and you can make big usuable power.....they just don't have alot of torque but when they get to boost they take off like a rocket, especially when sprayed.

The good thing about the Honda's is that it allows people on lesser budgets get into the "Car/ Hot Rod" thing even though they are ugly but as one guy told me...who cares about ugly, it's all about the 1/4 mile. LOL
