Default My race with a Civic Si

I personally believe i did well in this race....the outcome was expected in my opinion....

I was in the white Civic EX and the in-car view was my friends Civic Si...sorry the video gets dark and all you can see are the tailights and headlights....but you'll get the jist of the race...

Here are the mods....
00 white Civic EX-01 b18b, Intake,exhaust,clutch,flywheel

00 black Civic Si-intake,header,exhaust,cam gears,pulleys,clutch

oh yeah..sorry Tom...i was just posting hoping to clear up the b16a vs b18b rivarly....My take on this race....b18b takes it down low...b16a catches up...and catches up damn quick..but by the end of the 1/4 i'd say its pretty close...bottom line...they are both great performers..they just create power in different parts of the powerband...damn i should have gotten a gsr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Running a 15.8, you'd be hard pressed to beat a 92 Si, let alone a 00.

i've beaten a few Si's and lost to a few...no big deal really..i still believe the b16a and the b18b are equal performers....In the end...its the top end that wins a race....its what the b18b lacks....but i chose the b18b over a b16a because of the good midrange and low end power...

b18b has more torque than the b16, so I'm willing to bet that it was the poor gearing in the b18b tranny that lost the race.

i will agree..but b18b still has no top end..that torque is what got me off the line and kept me alive through 1st and 2nd...the lack in top end would have still killed me with a Si or GSR tranny...
