Default Honda owner here no hate please

Hey guys my buddy 95z28 wanted me to sign up just cuz im so sick of the drama on the other forums im on. He said most of the guys here are more about racing then running there mouths so hopefully this will go well.

Yes i do have a honda civic but i race the track more then on the street. No body kit its just gutted, cut up for slicks, has 1000lbs springs, and is turboed. The car makes 417whp and 317wtq(dont laugh at my short comings lol) My best pass with it was a 11.1 at 126 in the 1/4 and a 7.2 at 99 in the 1/8 both on a 1.6 60ft not bad for a street car right. On my 11.1 pass i almost hit the wall coming out of the whole so 10.5s are my goal for next year with some suspension tweaks should get able to get at least close.

Heres a pic of it at the track


O and the time slips only pic i have this is just showing that i can cut 1.6s at both of out local tracks some ppl like to complain that one track is so much worst but there all the ppl that have no clue how to set up a car.


Again not looking for drama im not a domestic hater or anything like that i help 95z28 with his car and he helps with mine just wanted to get away from the drama of kids on other sites and hopefully will meet some knew cool ppl.

No hate here. My wife has a 01 Honda Civic. No performance mods, but I installed a full custom stereo and she is adding wheels and tires soon.

I've got a Honda too (see sig pic) Fast cars are cool cars in my book, nice job. I give props when no body kit or wing is used.

Isn't it spelled weird like syclone or something like that, I could be wrong. I do remember seeing that somewhere though.

Welcome to the boards Mindless, and congrats on building rice correctly. No bodykit, no wing, no bullshit...just speed. I must warn you, though...hang around here long enough and the LS1 bug WILL bite you...might just find yourself driving an F-Body soon
