"If the RSX was on DR, with a good driver and a correct setup from "The Racers Edge" with overnighted parts from Japan, vs a home built setup, then the RSX would have won... by 10 cars"
Good Kill OP. Sounds like the RSX ran hard and he wasn't a dick about the run. Thats always a good thing. He doesn't have to defend why he barely lost. Apparently he has Adamantium here to do it for him and state how bad of a setup he was running...
Yeah, no kidding. I have nothing against fast Hondas and I know they exist and can respect good builds like Lightning's, but jesus christ... 6 pages with no video of the OP's race and it ALWAYS ends up being Adam who shows up with dyno sheets, and videos of 900hp cars. And I thought Automach was bad... Its bad when the first video to hit this thread... isn't one from the OP. Come on man, just about everyone expected it to be what it was... you're the only one who expected the man to put down 50+ more fwhp and then you seem upset that it lost the roll by a small margin?
I just want to know...
Who raped your Formula so bad that you have so much fear and respect for these cars?

Whats up man? Why does every honda have to beat everything to you? Why do you feel the need to justify this thread with videos and dynos from cars non-relating to OP? It made 220ish on motor with cam and bolt ons which is about CORRECT. It lost by a nose in the roll, and lost (as expected) from the dig by a decent amount. OPs on DRs...
I share dyno sheets and vids as evidence to show you what they usually make. Since no one on here even knows what a honda should make with x setup, im just simply telling you guys what it is since ive been around them since i was 15.
Ive been around hondas long enough to know what can and can't be done with whatever setup you name. If you guys think a 4xxwhp h/c 4th gens a riot imagine what that same power in a civic is like. Doesn't take much to get those cars to move, so i respect em.

If you think Integras/RSXs are girl cars, that's fine. But people in here said "That should be a pretty close race," other ignorant people said **** like "It won't be worth your gas," and then it was a really close race. Nobody tried to turn it into anything else except for the person that thought it wouldn't be a race.

Might be a close race. Race him and turn your traction control off, so there isn't any excuses with it.

You're right Adam... not alot of people know what k20, b18b, h22, etc all put down... but there's no way 221 on a NA RSX with boltons is a shitty built. Thats a healthy number IMO from what it was. Again, good kill OP. You managed to get a thread on here at 6+ pages of disputes and we still haven't seen the goddamn race video... LOL

221 with BOLT ONS is healthy no doubt about that, but the one OP ran was a "bolt on cammed" rsx. Not taking anything away from the kill just saying its pretty weak for a cammed setup and usually those numbers are bolt on territory. Also you guys gotta realize i don't drop the honda knowledge to rub it in you guys's face or talk about them like they are superior i just want you guys to know whats what. Wish more of you on the SRK section were a bit open minded about it.

Definitely.
Exactly what I said on page 1. Didn't doubt the RSX or throw it in the dirt vs OP's LT1. Just figured it would be a close race and it was. I had my money on the z28 though (whether i mentioned it or not), especially with the dig, considering OP was on DRs. I did expect him to have pulled better then a bumper or so, but I'm not surprised at the outcome.
Thats the issue right there. We get it. Regardless of how big of a muscle car guy you are or aren't, we all know there's faster cars out there in both genres.... import and domestic. There's no reason the first vid in this thread should be anything other than the one we're expecting from post 1.
