Granted, it can give you somewhat of an idea... Like let's say, a civic running 16.5 isn't gonna compete with a gsr running 14.5... Yes that can help out. But at the same time a 13.8 front wheel drive is a little different then a 13.8 rear wheel drive on the highway. I think the FF 13.8 will pull the FR 13.8 on the highway. So granted, i think a rear wheel drive car running, let's say, 13.3 and a front wheel drive running 13.8 would be a good race on the highway!

Notice i said good race... I didn't say the front drive would win. You guys are jumping on a HONDA board complaining like I yelled out to the world, I SPANKED A CORVETTE!!! I didn't, i simply stated the results of the race and i gave an opinion on how i thought i could've had a better race if we took off at the same time! I don't know who would've won... The second race never took place. I just wanted to show the people the potential of a prelude motor in a civic hatchback.

Point taken?



bro...do you even drive an h22 hatch?.... if i remember correctly, they do DAMN well of the line.... a 2000lb car w/ torque well above it's head will rip up 1/8 mile times.... you're taking hypothetical situations, putting them together and asking everybody if it's possible.... let me ask u, when u ran that 13.8, did u lose traction til the end of first?... if you got such a bad launch, u probably would've clocked a high 14 low 15 1/4 mile time....if you nailed the start, your time is possible and your take off is not much worse than a vettes launch....
