If you have ever driven an si or and rsx type s you would know the handling that those cars are capable of. Let alone their type r brethern with Lsd's, more power, better brakes, and lighter suspension components. That was not staged.

 

yup. Definitely not staged. Wet track, RWD, peaky powerband, all work against the S in this scenario.

 

Regardess of the outcome, that was a great video to watch. I found myself laughing along with the drivers a couple of times.

 

Great Video from 5th Gear

I think this race was a little bit fake.

Before the S2000 i had a civic type R ( I live in Portugal , we have the k20 ) and believe me, if it have the LSD it can race against a S2000 ......but the S2000 give's you more amusement!!

 

Everyone on here knows that the S is amusing. However it's those same people that have a hard time believing that honda makes any other car that is worthwhile or fun. I doubt that the race was staged.

Keep it up...

 

 

Now keep comments like that to yourself.

 

Does this mean the new Civic Si with the LSD will have just as good handling? Or is it quite a bit heavier than the hatchs?
