my friend has a stock 88 civic with 189000 miles - who would win in a race were both auto and hes stock and i have a catback

 

you would cause halfway through the race his car would break and fall to pieces

 

You would tear him a new one.

Behold the power of cheese!!!

 

If you can press a gas pedal you WILL win, bet him eleventy billion dollars (Us Currency)

 

He will take you.

 

 

You are joking right...?

 

What you do is, you gradually place the car in "R" and take him out!

 

>88< Civic will win!

 

sorry man but the Civic can never loose.

 

ok, how bout this...my friend has a 1967 Mustang on cinder blocks sitting in his driveway...can i beat him?

yeah, you pretty much asked the same question bud

 

you probably could take em in reverse....

 

Geez, why do you even bother asking? If it's stock for stock, you'll whoop his a$$ so hard that he won't be able to sit down for weeks.

Then again, what is he running underneath the hood? I've seen some pretty extreme $hit down here in So. Cal...

...you definitely don't want to be surprised. Know your enemy. Know your car. Then kick some @ss.

 

uhh, no comment

 

do both cars have gas in them?

 

You can win and save gas money this way.
1. Put car in neutral
2. Get behind it
3. When its time to go push with all your might!
You'll kill him off the line but when that Vtec kicks in!

 

 

I think this dude is serious!

 

even with nos that civic has no chance i bet

 

Why even bother? I would definitely not waste my gas racing a stock 88 civic, wow that is horrible, please never ask another dumb question like that ever again, i almost died laughing.

 

I ran my friend's 91 auto civic, if I start off slow till 2000 rpm, then gas it 1/2 way & shift @ 3300rpm I'll tie him till 100km/h or so then I pull on it @ like 2500rpm.

if I race him he'll be like 30 cars behind me everytime

 

Race him on roller blades to make it more fair.

 

Stock 88 civics with 189K miles are fast as hell. He'll smoke you.

 

 

I can run faster than your friends CIVIC.

 

everyone else has and advice so here my newbie advice
- Of course you can take him, but becareful he might be hiding a "Type R" sticker somewhere inside his car, if he doesn't then yes, you can take him.

 

Maybe race him in w/ the auto in [2] It still won't be fair past about 30.

 

how bout adding an extra decade on to the civic and you'll still take him

 

This has been the best thread I've read in a while, I laughed so hard at the post and then all the responses I almost fell out of my chair...

 

You have to watch out for stickers. They are known to give civics like 50 hp. Oh, and if he has a big *** wing, 100 hp, you have no chance.

 

the only way he could beat you, is if you got behind him and pushed with your car
