Default I Just got smoked by a Honda

Well as bad as this sounds its true. Heres my story. I was going home from work. I was gonna stop at micky d's for some dinner. Well at a walmart parking lot they had a bunch of guys and all there hondas. So I went in there pulled up and started syaing yo any you guys wanna race? Most of them stayed quiet. Then others said hell no im not racing that thing. Then I started to run my mouth. Then the one kid says the guy in the crx will race you. So he agreed to do it. Then we pull out hop on the highway. I knew he had a turbo because I could hear it. I was still thinking no problem. Well we get on and start from a 45-50 roll. we both hit it. I thought I had him then after 90 He shoots ahead of me and i mean way ahead leaving a horrible smell of smoke in my face. After that I was shocked and felt like a idiot. How ever I was not a sissy about it. I went back to the parking lot and told them all he really did beat me. I thought they where gonna talk **** but no one did. I was talking to him. He told me He was boosting 18psi and had 5grand into the motor. I told him i respect his car. So we talked for a little then I left. Btw. It was a beat up honda to. I just thought it was some junk. Well it kicked my butt. This goes to show you that you never know what people have until you race them. My 98 ls1 only has lid and exhaust

One day people will learn not to take a car that weighs 2000lbs lightly, especially one with a turbo.

Had kinda a complete opposite run in about a year or so ago with all these guys talking trash about this honda that would smoke me. Completely gutted little civic with a suposed built turboed motor and it ran 11's.... and on and on. So I say screw it and go race out of town with litterally like 80 people on each side of the road. We went like 25-130 and I ended up pulling him about 2 cars. I also raced a mach 1 the same night with all the cars on the side of the road. It was like a drag spot. The cool thing is the road is not available to the local cops around there and only the sherrifs could go on it, but as soon as we got off the road on to the main road they had a road block set and we all got trapped in. Luckily they had no evidence anybody raced so we all got off free, but it was a scary moment

Too funny!



It happens. At least you were cool about it. Throw some money into it and see what happens! I tend to put a couple tens in the glove box overtime hoping I can get a bit faster.
well im just getting long tubes and a tune and thats it. thats been my plan. after that im gonna save for the new ss. I rather have a new ss then dump money into mine just so i can go back and beat him
