Viper guy options...

1. He stole it.
2. He is a mechanic test driving the car.
3. He's a filthy rich ladies' man who likes his fine tobacco.

I'm really leaning toward number 3 myself.

Yes, probably true but it doesn't take a whole lotta driving skill to stab the throttle from 60 mph. Since I've seen more than one turbo Honda trap right at 100 mph at my local 1/8th mile track, I've become more of a believer than ever in forced induction.

I bet that little honda has torque steer like a ****! Good kill. I think the weight advantage was to the honda driver.

Hey 25psi, do you know what #'s the civic is putting down?
