for one, trust me the police know where the streets are. there is no such thing as a secret street. Another thing eugene is not a ricer, he actually owns a speed shop. PROSTREET. He builds fast shit and owns some fast cars. Also the real races do not have a bunch of ricers with big wings. The hondas that race now are all atleast bottom 12 second cars.

Thats funny because @ irwindale i saw a turbo honda with a fiberglass front end that was slow as shit. And it had a prostreet sticker. I don't know if it was a shop car or a just some guy with his sticker but it was slow.

I don't care if Eugene owns General Motors itself...you can tell by the POS he was driving that HE IS A RICER!! fkn gay ass civics are econoboxes, if you race one then i'm sorry but you're a ricer.

Wow man you sure defend the ricer community alot. Im starting to think you might be one yourself.

Reason

- you think a all motor crx is fast
- you said camaro drivers are called rednecks
- you seem to get offended when we say ricers.
- you are going to get offended by me calling you a ricer and will come up with a reason why you are defending the ricers.

Funny that you say that all hondas that race are all in the low 12's.
here's vid of a guy in a 07' Honda SI who said he wanted to race me.the guy claimed to be in the 11's and had spanked a shit load of fbodies in the past.he works across the street from my GF's work place. he actually kept harassing my Gf telling her that I better show up and race.What a waste of time and gas they can be...lol!

I saw a turbo hatch @ irwindale with full cage, gutted, turbo and slicks. The guy ran somewhere in the high 7's and these mexicans next to me were so excited like if it ran something unbeleivable. Then a tube chassis 69 camaro rans 5's while letting off, and the same mexicans had no reaction. The moral of this story is ricers are gay because they think just because it has 4 cylinders and runs 12's they are special.

All those guys are fags IMO.....I've raced most of them and spanked them at that. I hate racing ricers. They always take 30min's to prep their POS and do burnouts with 10 people holding the car. Just to race a 11 sec drag radial lt1 on the street that probably won't even see mid 12's on the street.

yea def a old vid.... but civics are just SLOW. thats that. all the races ive seen them in were slow and sounded like it was going to explode. still dont understand why they buy these cars and think there hella fast and put tons of $$$ and its still not as fast as our STOCK camaros

and that blue honda in the 2 vid... roll cage and cutted and is still slow.. wow. i love how it says after that he isnt street racing hes road course racing and it shows a vid of him running off the road!!! hahaha

eh, hondas, are good cars, but for economy, and reliability... thats it. i would never buy a honda hoping for it to be fast at that time or anytime after. i never saw the point of spending the money on a "fast" car but it didn't make any power till 5/6k rpm. i almost got an 04 V6 6spd Accord coupe a couple months ago, granted it was quick, i just wasnt expecting anything spectacular like f body quickness. and thats how i see it when it comes to hondas (or most imports) racing, its just nothing spectacular to me. but then again, its all about preference in cars.

im a GM muscle car kinda girl, and i dont plan on changing anytime in my life. :)

I still dont see how they would be running 12's that easily. I mean if an s2000 has 240hp and weighs 2,800 and will run low 14's then thay would have to pull a ton of weight out of the civics to make it run 12's and they would also have the fwd disadvantage to deal with. Can those cars get less then 2000lbs?

I know a guy who has a 8 second street driven fox body that I have seen race on the street, I have still seen fast hondas and crap. Just because they aren't going 9's in close to street trim doesn't mean they are not fast. Think about it this way, we start with a mid 13 second car and take 3-4 seconds off that and you have a fast fucking car, especially if you can get it to hook on the street. Now take the honda that stock runs 15 seconds and take 3 to even sometimes 5 seconds off that and I would say that makes a pretty fast honda. Yes a fully built camaro will almost always beat a full built honda, but the fact that the hondas can still get down to 11 or sometimes 10 second street passes with shitty FWD set up and less displacement than a bottle of soda is pretty impressive.

You have a good point ryan, But let's just say you have a golf cart that runs 25 sec 1/4 mile and you beef it up and do weight reduction (chop off the top) and it runs 19's. Would you consider that fast? It would be fast for a golf cart but its not "fast". What im trying to say is if you want to call something "fast" it should accually be "fast" and not "honda/golf cart fast".

I wouldn't call anything that ran 19's fast unless it was a person literally running. But as far as 11 and 10 second cars, I would say thats fast. 12-13s I would say their quick, and sub 10 second cars (in close to street trim) would be a stupid fast street car.

Street racing is not only dangerous because of crashes, but like the people on the video said "people don't like to loose" My friend that has a 11 sec fox once beat a "Fast" honda. The guy didn't like the fact that his "fast" honda lost, He pulled a gun on my friend and stole all his money and watch when my friend was trying to collect his money.

Lots of people ask me to race my car on the street, But I didn't spend the extra $$ on the SFI shit to be speedracer on the street.

Very few cars even in compton make low 9 second passes on the street. most of the faster cars run from 10.50 -12.0. street fast and track fast are 2 diffrent things.
