Not to take anything away from him bc I like the car and enjoyed the vids, but I wouldn't call any of those cars "big boy cars", they were all 4-500hp cars. That's average at best by today's standards. I've mentioned to his builder who I'm friends with, that I would like to see the car run on a level playing field, would be cool to see it play around with some 650-750hp v8 cars to see how it really runs! Like I said not to downplay the car it's obviously mean, but let's see pick on someone it's own size those 4-500hp Hondas and such are bait for the cam/bolt on v1's! Lol

There are as many 10 second 500hp hondas as there are 9 second 1000hp supras.

Majority of hondas dont move out of their own way until 80mph. Those guys just cant seem to grasp what needs to be done to build a solid car. There are definetly some that flat out perform though.

you can compare cars all day, but that guy with the civic cant turn his navigation on and plan a trip to the mountains.... it is what it is (he can, but it doesnt come with the car)

you can build any car to XXXX/HP and XX.XX in the quarter mile, but it's all about what you want personally

in the end, I like ur V, a lot..... and V does not stand for vagina to be clear. I wish I would have done what u did before I threw a supercharger on my old one

EDIT: tell that dude to take the stickers off his car, that was so 8 years ago

I drove my v from michigan to cali and the navigation did nothing but get me lost....so i wouldnt use our navi as one of our selling points.
