Talking honda vs. ford

So i was on the highway heading back from myrtle beach spring break trip and keep in mind my manual 04 ex had me plus 3 others in it with a full trunk of luggage lol... we came upon a totally gross riced out zx3 hatchback not an svt ....with one kid driving. the thing was ugly it had a red bumper carbon fiber hood and silver body with every light whited out and a gross scoopy wing. we were at a 60 mph roll when he stuck his hand out of his window and motioned us to speed up next to him and we pulled into a lane beside him....and we were off.... we shut down at 110 and we were a few car lenghts ahead of him... he seemedrather dissapointed. how much hp do those things put out? im not sure what year it was or anything and not sure if he was auto or stick...

Who cares how much horsepower they have? Obviously they don't put out more than an EX full of people and luggage!

Nice kill!!!

what does this have to do with anything even mentioned previously in this thread?

i see no claims of anyone racing an svt of any kind, so who gives 2 *****?

well let me interject my own "equally as condusive to this thread" logic.

I have an S2000 and let me tell you, I've raced a turbo'd SVT focus and it's not even close. The S2000 would destroy a turbo'd focus.

Consider this, you drive a na bolt on civic and a na bolt on focus. Racing should not even be an issue. Do something more constructive. Good kill I guess
