Did anyone figure out which queer in that avatar is the kid with a saturn? I guess it doesnt matter cause I'd like to smack both of them, preferably at the same time. I seriously didnt even know people raced those cars until I heard him looking for a race with a bolt on ls1. Maybe we can get some mad tight civics looking for some fun too.

you know vtec kicks in so hard it shut off the camera most of the time. It might of been bad torque steer or a slipping clutch.
On a side note, You think Matt and Nick can hook me up with a good VTEC package. I want to swap out this ls1 and put a 4g36a*2 in my car. Car is gonna be a stage -2 after the swap.

"When this baby hits 88 your gonna see some serious ****!"

Thats the reason I don't street race anymore. I kept getting sent back to the 50's. It's a waste of 3.1 gigawatts! Those MSD super conductors really work wonders.
