The driver of the civic had every excuse in the book why his car was a slow piece of crap. 600 horse?

JW · 03-15-2006, 09:27 PM

My favorite part was the "larger gentleman" yelling "Don't ask for 20 car lengths thats just rediculous!"

seriously the kid with the civic should be killed, shows up on street tires and wonders why he gets spanked the first 2 races, and he cant drive and needs 20 cars and and the t/a off the bottle to win, i hate people like that

oh one ls1 SS · 03-15-2006, 09:50 PM

civic =

that should be just about all of them

97slpss · 03-15-2006, 09:54 PM

i wanted to watch it...totally forgot as usual

foff667 · 03-15-2006, 10:52 PM

i know the one uhum "larger gentleman" was Jeff Creech who's a tuner at Carolina auto masters...but yeah they asked for 25 car lengths at one point...ended up giving him 20 & he STILL lost the race on a foul lol

NJSPEEDER · 03-15-2006, 11:26 PM

anyone who gets 20lengths and still tries to steal teh hit should jsut kill themselves.

ar0ck · 03-16-2006, 12:55 AM

Even my girlfriend was laughing at that race!

Yeah, Creech did some tuning for me. One time. Let's just say Jeff Rhoades is doing my tuning now. The Civic makes 658whp. That guy had no business driving that car. I would lose my manhood asking for 20 lengths. I hear the bumper from that car is at Creech's shop, deep in the ghetto of Durham lol

01ws6TA · 03-16-2006, 06:53 AM

well atleast he gets to keep the bumper lol, if i was the owner of the TA id go home and post that gayvic on ebay i like what he asked after he got the keys.

"So does that thing get good gas mileage?" The driver looked like he wanted to stab him when he said it. Classic! lol

yeah Jeff has lost alot of respect recently from many of the locals from what I've heard...but still has a good following as well from what I hear. Obviously dont get to see much of his work so I don't have an opinion on him.

He actually sold the civic back to the guy. Now the guy has it up for sale himself:

=[ missed it, and i really wanted to see it!

badzracing · 03-16-2006, 12:32 PM

The T.A. was blown ( procharger d-1r, I believe)not turbo'd, just for the record.

foff667 · 03-16-2006, 12:43 PM

blown, stroked, with nitrous & alky

11 Bravo · 03-16-2006, 12:43 PM

396 stroker with a Procharger and a small shot.

12secondv6 · 03-16-2006, 12:49 PM

I don't beleive that the civic made any where NEAR 600 hp to the ground.

No REAL car person would EVER attempt to race a 600 hp car on street tires vs another car which has slicks, blower, larger ci and nitrous.

BS

This is funny stuff:

Thread with civic side: http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1560932&page=1

Thread with T/A side: http://www.fbodycentral.com/forum/sh...5&pagenumber=1

Import guy claims that it's not a track car, only makes 400ish hp, and weighs 2500ish lbs.

Jeff (T/A guy) claims that it put 658 hp to the wheels and weighed 2100 with driver.
