OR



Pretty much even. I think it would be a good race pending the driver on that given day. My money is on Steven Papadakis

ya know whats really screwed up the black one is the worlds fastest civic for top end, but the drag civic is only 3 mph on the top end. as for a race goes it depends what kind of race quater mile the yellow one would kick the black ones a$$ cause its geared for the quater the black one is geared for top end. BTW both are front drive, the black one is a factory block.

Um the Steph Papadakis's drag car is not a CIVIC.. it houses a Prelude H22 or was it H23 i think...
so they are both different cars... like someone mentioned the drag is for 1/4 mile. whilethe Vortech SiR is for the longrun

The drag civic is just a "civic" body mold on a drag frame

Like others have said, 2 different cars built for 2 different things. The drag would most definately be faster through the 1/4 imo, while the black one would have a higher top end and be a lot slower getting there. Just my thoughts....

first of all the black civic is not black its dark green, and second it only reached 180+ mph over a 3 mile stretch. that is how slow it accelerates. If the drag civic can reach 180+ in a 1/4 mile then it would definately kill the green civic. Besides, the green civic has a vortech centrifugal supercharger on it with other mods, superchargers arent made for real top-end power. the drag civic has a greddy t-88 turbo. that is the largest turbo greddy makes, and the car puts out somewhere around 650hp to the green ones 250-400hp.

Steph Papadakis's car is definately faster.. not only will it leave the first civic in the dust, i'm sure if he were to keep accelerating after 1/4 mile it would break 200mph[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
