Your 1995 Max has 190 horsepower, and the '99 Civic V-TECHs have 127. I'd say you have more than a chance....

Your car puts about 150-155HP at the wheels (stock).

You could also beat him with your parking brake up

If its a civic SI, they have 160 hp. If its an EX, they have 127hp. They are both VTEC, one DOHC, the other SOHC. If your car is a 5 speed, you will destroy either of them. If your car is an automatic you might have problems with the SI, not with the EX though. Oh and lose the CAPS.

I agree...those 5-speed SIs are pretty quick....I regret to admit, but I got beat by a 5-speed SI with and intake and exhaust from a rolling start...and i hate to admit it, but it sounded good!
