Honda Civic.



WTF was he thinking?

I had 1.5 car legnths on him before we were out of the intersection, and I was far from full launch. I just stabbed it in Drive from the light.

Kid coudn't have been more than 18 or 19. I doubt he rattles his fart pipes next to a Z28 again.

Hey, I ran a civic hatchback with my 91 Z. I only had the car a few weeks and I was supposedly the first car he ran after working on it all winter and he was the first car I ran also. He kept up with me into third gear, then I stopped spinning and handed him his ***. Sorry for jacking the thread but, it needed to be done.
