The car moves out I'm not doubting it, and the guy doesn't seem like your typical honda doucher, but I highly doubt it would ever hit 195. I'm sure on a dyno it would but it's another thing when you throw in resistance. That's all I'm saying.

If it has the power to push 6th gear through its normal drag limitation, it should be able to. 6th gear is k series true overdrive, big drop from 5th(.92) that barely qualifies as overdrive, to like .7 (traditional od)something...lot of power needed, but is plausible.

Hes just a friend of mine and its a good video with some good races. The RX7 is also a local here; Turbo LS1, made close to 600whp on 12lbs. It gives the civic a very good race nowadays...

Maybe I should buy one of these. At least I would look cool like Uncle Ben's rice when an F-body whoops my ***. Honduh's are onto something here.

I'd much rather be seen as a snobby, ignorant, douche in my M3 than drive that.
