Honda vs. Honda

[hutch1999]

Tonight I got see HONDA POWER!!! and the almighty VTEC lol. The are both my buddies. The race was between a early nineties CRX with a slightly built N/A ZC engine and a early nineties acura integra with a b16 vtec swap. The race was from a 20mph roll. Im the pass. in the CRX and I counted down from 3-2-1 and they took off. Instantly the CRX pulls a car. By 115 the CRX had put five car lengths on the integra. Needless to say my CRX buddy was pretty pumped that he smoked the b16. But I about shit when he told me how much money he had in his car. Including the price of the car he has 7,000 dollars in it. And that was with his shop class doing all the labor on the motor. But hey to each his own.
I will admit it was fun racing, it sorta reminded me of racing go-carts.

They can hit 115? :dunno:

[Rikki_SeVeN]

LOL, well atleast they are kinda built!...

I have to sit through my friends racing a Stock 98 Accord 4cil. and a Stock 2.0L Jetta... you have NO idea how sleepy those races make me... I'd probably be able to take a long nap, wake up and the race would probably not even be over yet....

[hutch1999]

lol, year It did take them forever to get to 115. I wish I had a slightly modded 3.8 to shame both of them

My friend has a 99 accord the v6, and he races v-tec cars all the time. Noone seems to know that the v6 accord was a 3.0liter vtec motor that made 240hp, he smokes stock integras and civics all the time, its hilarious.

There is an accord that lives across the railroad tracks from me, Every morning he pulls out and revs the dang thing for 9 billion RPM and he dont shift for like 2 mins between gears, He has a Damn 4" fart can on it. One morning im going to be waiting for him to pull out and send a 10gage shell through his radiator!!!:lol:

I have seen 2 actually built honda's around me, One had a B18b turbo on 12PSI, Had a very nice pull to it. His best was 8.80@89MPH in the 1/8 and a CRX im not sure which engine, it was N/A but he ran 9.00's I was impressed!!:brick2:

[hutch1999]

The CRX is built for a turbo he just doesnt have the money for one right now. His valvetrain is rated a 11,000rpms... but once again he has 7,000 bucks in his car the b16 integra only cost the other kid 1,300 bucks

[2000T/A Guru]

Isnt the b16 the civic si motor, makes 165hp and 120ftlbs and the integra GSR motor is 195hp like 135ftlbs, so he spent 1300 dollars and doesnt even have a car as fast as a normal v-tec integra, or v-tec civic because the civic is 300lbs lightier

[hutch1999]

This is an old integra early nineties(no bug eyes) he just got it last week. He doesnt know what the b16 came out of or where it came from...

[2000T/A Guru]

those are actually very light for what they are... and they move pretty well I guess... modded...

I raced one once in my old 99 Explorer... and beat the crap out of it... it was Stock with a Coffe Can Exhaust...

[2000T/A Guru]

Yeah they weigh 2500lbs, and civics weigh 2100-2200 which is why they come with more power. Too make up for the weight

yep, 130hp stock I belive... for those square-ish ones... Integra

[JHayesLS1]

Holy crap 130 HP!!

[hutch1999]

like I said it was like racing go-carts lol

[Sleeper101]

like I said it was like racing go-carts lol

But Alcohal Go-carts are fun!!!:snowboard:

Especially when you flip!!

[hutch1999]

lol yea im happy to say ive never flipped a go cart

[CamaroBlood]

i dont think that go carts like that even deserve my comment or opinion...

The kid with the CRX I respect, he did most of the motor work himself. And instead of doing a turbo on stock internals and head, he did all supporting mods. He has a built valvetrain, low comp. pistons, forged internals... Hes just getting money together for his turbo right now.

i have no respect for the vehicles because a already built one in the past and they arent anything to brag about... you can put that same amount of money into a real motor and get even more power... thats like saying hey lets put 7 grand into a lawn mower so we can keep up with a car....

[Hot Black Trans-Am]

Ricers are funny. I raced on tonight with my wifes car an 07 Eclipse GT auto. It was an older Celica with fart can, vinyl graphics, plastic chrome hub caps on black wheels, tinted windows, lowered, racing seats, some HP adding crap hanging from the mirror and a manual trans. I just kept his speed until he was into 2nd then gave him a good thrashing. I wish I was in my T/A for that one!

why dont we all just buy motorcycles and race those :coffee: .
Sure they spend a lot on that junk, but if thats what they want to do, i aint complaining. If all import drivers chose to buy F-Bodies instead, demand for the F-Body would just go up, thus PRICES for them as well, then it becomes more expensive (the car). 60's musclecars are already getting rediculous.........

:devil:

We do race a lot of bikes around here, those are real fun to watch. Being at the finishline and a bike flying by at 130mph is awesome.

for some reason i get incredibly bored with bike races, id rather watch stupid imports. Seems to me like most of the time, the dudes on bikes are just trying to show off.......

You just need to watch or interesting races like a chopper vs a cbr600rr

[Sleeper101]

At my local track we have Zx14R's with 3 stages of Nitrous and Turbo Busa's that run! Those bikes are insane to watch! But the smaller guys like the 600's and 750's do get boring after there 900th run.
