corrections: VR4's run low 13s stock. They are actually quicker than stock mkiv Supras(and I think they are quicker than C4 vettes, but I could very possibly be mistaken). Of course that's stock. With a little bit of money they run low 12 easily.
N/A's are a whole different story.

Agreed, but damn you're harsh on the "nobody cares" part...

Sorry man, no hate intended. Its just that (to me) the looks of the NT just overshadow their performance. Its a great cruising car. If people want power in the platform they tend to go for the VR4. Similar to NT and turbo DSMs.

Congrats on the kill but if you actually ran away from it like you said it was either a non-turbo model or a very sickly AWD version. I've got a 92TT daily driver and a 93TT play car to go along with my Camaro and I swear my little turbo car (big and heavy actually) has competed very well against the SS mod for mod, dollar for dollar spent. Just trying to inject some reality here and mean no disrespect to anyone or their opinions.

the point of the thread was to announce my victory there are what ifs in any race i mean, you could go race a mustang with 8 lbs of boost, smoke him and someone on here would say oh well if he were running 14 pounds it woulda been a different story, point is you race what you have and dont make excuses, if it was a vr4 with a turbo it woulda been different, well it wasnt and im sure it woulda been closer, but shoulda woulda coulda, i mean no disrespect but speculation is just that...speculation

Nice cars though, just a bit on the heavy side.

I do miss that car though...

I like them too...I still like them and wouldn't mind having one as a DD. I got really good gas mileage...still used premium though 
I know my car was faster than the GS-R Integra (even without the bottle). I raced a buddies from a dig and roll and whooped him. He had "exhaust" and a CAI. Maybe I just suck at drag racing...
I raced an Integra turbo once from a 40mph roll and we were dead even (I was not on the bottle)
Wow, this thread got ugly fast!
