FYI----Tondss BURNED my 6 speed 653whp camaro ON THE FREEWAY by 5+ cars. His car is a bit heavier than mine too!

It is just real hard to get traction on high HP boosted cars with a 6 speed. The way his TH400 stays in FULL BOOST the whole time is hard to keep up with when you have to shift and respool for a spit second a few times.

LOL at Wants a LS1. He ate up that GT40 on the freeway with the t-tops off and the windows down. The GT40 jumped the third honk too and he still held it ~3/4 of a car back from 50--140mph.

do your best not to be ignorant. there are many many b-series motors making well into the 500+ fwhp range, and are streetable

Yea, and several jerk offs had a problem with the "commentary" but they can suck *****! If ya dont like what the dudes sayin, then click the little X in the top corner of windows media player and stop whtchin the ****** thing. Its that simple! What? You think the dudes really gonna go retape the whole thing cause you couldnt handle the humpty hump nose? So what the guy thinks his victim payed too much for th GT, SO DO I! I think that video has to go down as one of the LS1 greatest ever... and MR.PRESIDENT you got my vote!

I gotta laugh at some of the ignorance over there. I guess a lot of them don't know about how much power a TH400 eats up, beside the fact it's got a built rear. A 550 car vs. a 800 car? YOU MUST BE CRAZY, THE DYNO CLEARLY SAYS THE COBRA WILL WIN!!!

No disrespect, but if those dyno numbers in your sig are your current setup. You'd get walked like a dog.

sure there are. the percentage of them are about .01% of the civics out there. i think you should try your best not to be ignorant as less than 1 in thousands civics out there is hardly even a statistic. having a handful out there does not make these things commonplace, and the last word you should use to describe these cars are "many".
