Default hung with a C4 Vette from 60 to 140 this morning....

it was a wide open freeway, nother cars anywhere around us, so it was safe, i never race if there's a chance of putting others in danger...

anyway, we went from a 60 roll, and we were pretty much neck and neck all the way to 140, and then he started to slowly walk away, i got off it at 145 once i realized i wasnt gonna catch him.... nice race though, cool guy too, we pulled over and chit chatted for a bit at a gas station, his C4 was bone stock....

my car is far from stock... it's a 98 Accord Coupe, with a red top H22A swap, custum (i built it myself) ram air intake, and a 2.5 test pipe (no cats, no mufflers, dumped behind the rear axle) all in all, great race, im surprised i hung with him, he was astonished i did until i explained the moter swap to him...

here's a pic of my ride:

good thing you didn't use NOS dawg, you're car would have taken flight when you hit vtec. I'm noticing you're on stock tires. good thing since they are certainly rated for speeds over 100

I beat that same Corvette, then I put his LT4 in my 97. Those are custom EX knockoffs made out of compressed graphite powder, they weigh like 3 pounds each and I have a secret exhaust cutout at a bend in my midpipe about the size of a dime that adds like an extra 20 hp (It just looks like a dime-sized hole where a hanger tore off but real Honda ballers know what it's for)



Oh plus that dent in the rear is from my juice bottle draining so quick it imploded and sucked its trunk mount inwards. NAAWWWS!
