I can't remember the last time someone on a forum, especially this forum 
, "stuck a nerve." Been around these parts a lot longer than you guy, you don't know about how I post. I don't post at all like I used though...

And that must be the case in every other race right? Because races always turn out the same way everywhere?
Were any digs? If so, list isn't really surprising. It's probably a poorly setup car that only shines from high rolls.
I'd love to see it work from a dig. I couldn't care less how it works from a roll really. Let me guess, majority of said videos are 40-60+ rolls. I know a few 4xx F-bodies that would run away from said Civic from a dig, which takes into account much more than a roll. Total package of the car + driver, that's a good race.

Really, we didn't need to get into all this. You just fail to realize that peak HP numbers and weight aren't all that goes into a race, even a 
roll.
roll.
Now the problem with you is you fail to realize that just because its a turbo honda does not mean it will make 500rpms worth of power lol. Thats retarded, its all based on the setup. **** setup, **** powerband.
My friends turbo b16 would start building boost around 2,800 RPMs and make full boost around 3800ish and hold it till 9k+. Thats 5k+ of usable power. Herp derp.
For ***** sake look at lightnings teg, full trim with 450-500whp and look at the cars he is racing. Def not in the same league as a 4xxwhp f-body no matter how broad or efficient its powerband is.

Please post videos of the 20-40 rolls before I comment further on that (because you obviously know how I feel about
"races"...)
Again ive said this a million times go out drop 400lbs out of your car and report back and lmk if it gets faster.
Tell me more secrets please!!!

That's funny you say that. Here's a post I made just about an hour ago, completing an Integra on it's good powerband...Foot in mouth.
I asked for your advice and expertise! And you know that last part was ironic. 
And I know.
