Should i be worried or should i just go there and hand him his ***? Cause i know if i get a close race or he somehow beats me I WILL NEVER hear the end of it... especially since i think i have the fastest car in the school. Oh one other question at 120 MPH if you put a LS1 on cruise what does it rev?
Oh and if i put this in wrong forum I apologize for the mistake.

I haven't come across a ricer yet (I'm just a 3 wk. old ls1 owner), but when I do rest assured whether it's a teg, rx7, supra, whatever...I'm laying the SMACKDOWN on his RUDYPOO __________ (you know the rest!) Whoa!

"with all the mad goodies couple of stickers probably a nos under the hood and 6 inch exhaust"
You sound like a ricer and your worried about getting beat by a ricer????????????
Either race this guy and ANY other ricer idiot that comes your way or sell your LS1 and get a honda. Don't ever back down from a ricer, that is what they want, because they have slow cars. Don't post about being concerned, or "will you win", just race him and tell us how bad you beat him. If you loose, kick your own *** and buy a NX Wet kit and some tires.

I wouldn't sweat the integra if I was you. Unless he has a turbo his integra's worthless. Nitrous on a honda has never been that impressive from my experience. Except maybe the light show under his hood when he hits it. 
I'm glad GM got rid of those 3.4s and went to the 3.8. It's a much better engine.

Heck - just look at the guys tires. They will tell most of the story. If he's running regular street tires you'll probably waste him. Saw a Honda Civic turn a 10.6 in the quarter one night but he was running 14" wide slicks on the front. Really funny looking - but also really fast!
I ran a twin turbo 300Zx that same night and took him by a couple car lengths and I was on street tires and have a restrictive exhaust. Be cool and "school" him.

I wish I could find a few more ricers here down south. I see all of them on the street and when I mes with them they always seem to look away and never want to play. I always end up messing around with Stangs and Porche's

There were only a small handfully of respectable cars in my senior year of school. A friends '69 Chevy PU, a beautiful early 80's Camaro RS/SS/Z28/something, a later-90's LT1 'bird/trans-am, and my old '70 Gutless.
