Hey, update.

My friend with the Lancer OZ-Rally and I finially raced.

MIVVEC vs. VTEC
Winner: VTEC!

Auto vs. Manual. It was an awesome race. He had me off the line, but right around the midfield, I pulled ahead!![:'(] I beat him by about 1/2 a length. He was so pissed.[>:]

The funny things was the excuses afterwards. I think the instant I pulled ahead, would be the ultimate "VTEC Just Kicked In' Yo" picture.[&:] Score one for Honda entusiasts everywhere

Prob couldnt get a good jump with his auto, if you raced him at a roll you would have won by more. Plus less strain on tranny. Hey Phantom Getthow did you lunch, brake and gas?

congratz on your win.

Don't those SRT8 Jeeps usually run in the 13s with that kind of power and AWD launch?

In Reply to j-man-honda: It was cool. It was a fun run. He did have a K&N Typhoon Ram Air Intake in, oh, and adhesive hood scoops.

In reply to HondaRaer4VTEC: It was more or less a straight drag. I launched in D3, it was a great launch. Barely any wheel spin on my part. I pretty much floored it the whole way, I actually almost didn't brake in time. We Hitailed it out. It was an awesome run. Thanks for the congrats. I hope you guys all get one awesome race that you'll never forget.

I wouldn't say it's anything to brag about. My buddy has an '01 S-10 4cyl 5spd and it's slow as sh*t. I'm going to make the assumption that the "Xtreme" (LOL) edition is 4x4 slowing it down some due to weight. Your '92 will own him every time, even if you drive in reverse. Haha.
