Civ was b16 turbo and a 75 shot I believe. The girl hit a 9.92 at 79 mph 1/8 mile on her first pass (or something like that).

This is HT, but I don't think street racing sucks

9.9 in the 8th is kinda slow for a b16 turbo.....

well they could have hooked her up with a lsd tranny at least and she would have had better times . alll that money into making it look ugly , like stickers and a body kit and crap . she didn`t even want that crap on here car and they still pushed it on her. lsd and some driving time and she would probably have torn him apart

i thought that show was going to be cool, but it was totally LAME, just the way they went out talking about car,s and wording there script's was really gay, the show was fast paced and boring, who run's 1/8 mile anyways.. they need to get some REAL tuner's on there, not some joe blows with alot of money,

But i think lei,did a great job getting in there and workin on them there cars..lol

I only caught the last half of it. I thought it was kind of boring. I didn't care for it. Just made both the drivers look like punks. Plus the chick needed some seat time I think. She drove that car like ***. But she did have a turbo and guess what, she is on HT, too.

didn't catch it.. But who would turn down the opportunity to get performance parts put in their car for free??? Afterwords you can take the silly stickers off and actually get to tuning it

There's no way that a street FWD without the proper traction devices can beat a AWD street car with almost identical HP in the 1/8 mile. The AWD car comes out the hole too hard and that's where the race is lost. Besides the 1/8 mile is too short for the FWD car to catch up!
