i went to friends house earlier today, and his g/f's uncle show up in his new challenger (5.7) and we start talking about his car, how it runs 12's at the track, i knew he was full of it, and i told him i run 12's too, and like the douche he is, he didn't beleve me, so i ask him if he wants to run, he accepts, and we go down a desolate road, and run from a digg, twice one going and once coming back with the same result, he got me off the jump, but from about 20 mph to 100(and 12lbs of course) i had him by at least 6 cars

when we got back to my buddies house, he gave me that same old line, man my cars isn't running right, i told him if it's not you'd better bring that POS back to the dealership being only three weeks old, my buddy started laughing, and i ask him if he honestly brought it to the track, his reply? no i did not


the moral of the story? ricers come in all ages shapes and sizes, and it doesn't matter what they drive

 

goodjob!! put his smart-UNEDUCATED A$$ in shape. Never underestimate a 4 banger

 

wow.. assume much? Did you know the guy? you seem pretty sure he was uneducated.

 

dude, its not that I dont believe you, but a 12 second Civic put 6 cars on a Challenger????????????????that would take a ton more power wouldn't it?

 

Power to weight is king.

a 12 sec civic is no doubt traction limited.

 

Cool

 

khan is right car weights 1900 give or take, and i do have traction issues on the street if we were on a drag strip with d.o.t. slicks i'd have beaten him by a bigger margin

 

Nice Kill

 

I think he meant "uneducated" as it relates to cars. The guy obviously didn't know what he was talking about. Now that he's run a 12 second car, he has been educated as to what a 12 second car is.

OP, nice run. I love beating up on people that are expecting to destroy you. People always underestimate a nicely done lightweight car. What kind of civic do you have and what's done to it?

 

yea i love beating on mustangs, and camaros
