yea the honda is pretty fast and it looks good from the outside as far as I can tell, BUT you notice the inside is gutted and ugly as ****. Cant hate on the performance of the civic, sure is fast.

Now days though we want more then just fast, we like comfort and technology at our fingertips.

Speed-Civic
Looks-ZR1
Potential-ZR1

Sound-ZR1
Mileage Per Gallon-Civic
Everything else-ZR1

Awesome how it pulled though, looked like it was gonna be close then BAM!

Civic is definitely not dialed in for the street lol. Looks like a track car that the owner said **** it lets put street tires on it. Hed go faster not spinning even if he turned the power down.

This is a racing forum not a comfort forum. Zr1 got yanked , no need for the reasoning on why you would prefer a ZR1 as that should be obvious

Oh its a forum? Great, guess I can say whatever the **** I want? My opinion. Thanks



Fast civic but its an all out racecar. ZR1 isnt even close to its potential.

Damn.. ZR1 got blasted! That should/will force the ZR1 owner to extensively mod his car. I'd mod and get a rematch for sure. Can't go out like that man lol.

600rwhp isn't that high for a zr1. Is that tune-only?

its a race, the object of the game is to win

His point was it was an all our race civic gutted to its fullest. It had holes drilled in the rear bumper for **** sake lol. Against a full interior car with full comfort creatures, reliability, and a/c. Was a really cool race though either way. I bet a lot of Honda guys out there jerk it to this every day.

Exactly, but I would almost disagree on the civic getting better gas mileage. I'd almost put $ on it that the zr1 is better there too. All the civic had was roll racing up top speed. Zr1 would also out handle it if you wanted to put that on the list lol
