Rep Power: 0 Fared pretty well, if you ask me. I'm suprised it took that long for the RSX-s to start pulling.
I've never been impressed AT ALL with the new civic SI's. I don't know why, but it just doesn't really live up to the 6th gens, performance wise.

saw this @ crsx.
The vid against the rsx-s is about right, the torque advantage of the tC takes flight pretty quickly, the HP of the type-s takes over after... nice run, as exepected.
The vid against the sI is right, ive ran into a few sI myself and have put a hurting on them from digs and rolls, nice run, as exepected
The vid against the 300zx, was a kinda fluke... the tC shouldn't have pulled that much, still good win for the 300zx
The vid against the srt4 was a
, he put like 5 cars on him... crazy.
Nice rid.

Rep Power: 0 I filmed everything in that video, (cameraman btzzle)and yes its a srt 4 its my friend zach and he was toying with him, and yes the si driver was trying but he didn't know how to drive his car very well, I've beat that tc numerious times in my dads si. the 300zx was NA, and only put 190hp to the wheels at a dyno day we went to like a month ago, and the rsx was a legit race that we had setup

Nice vids. I own a Tc and enjoyed seeing how it compared to other cars. Every race went exactly as I expected, I actually think that SI driver was a lot better than most other SI drivers, because he did really good. I've raced many SI's and beat them alot worse than that. Finally a good driver in an SI. The Srt-4 is **** trying to go against a TC lol. Thats just an unfair matchup.

You have put a hurting on Si's from a roll and a dig in your LANCER? I'd love to see that.

Rep Power: 0 ^^^ umm yeah. I own a ralliart, 162hp and 162trq, I have intake and exhaust and yes, the ralliart is under-rated from the factory for insurance purposes (so we've been told). Guys have dynoed stock anywhere from 150whp to 157whp and trq 151trq - 155trq. Quite a few guys have broken high 14's w/ intake and exhaust... 
So next time, do some research before you come at me sideways

Rep Power: 0 I ran a 9.9sec 1/8th mile with a stock si, I think that translates into a low to mid 15sec 1/4th mile run. I'm sure the si's that u raced were like the ones I raced, which as u could tell by the video, wernt even close races, I asked him what was the deal and he said I dunno I was tryin my hardest. I swear it happens like that everytime I have ever raced another si, I seriously don't think anyone knows how to drive that car its deffinatly a diffrent experiance and I even had some problems shifting in to 2nd as u can see in the vid.

Rep Power: 397 I've never seen a Ralliart. Do they sell them at the mitsu dealers? I've seen like lancers, and "oz" lancers and evo 8's but never a rally art. Can you link me to like a dealer page I wanna see what it looks like =)

Rep Power: 0 I've had a few runs with a Ralliart and wasn't impressed with them what so ever. The reason for my comment before was because I've had tougher times with modded Si's than modded Ralliarts. Neither race was even close but the modded Si put up a much better fight than the Ralliart.

Rep Power: 0 ^^^ well, that could be because there are more parts/ep3 on the road than ralliarts. They only been out for 1 year. When I had a base lancer (120hp), a bunch of these ep3 guys would always bother me and taunt me, pissed me off cuz I have a slower car, now I have a RA... they don't wanna race me, lol.

Rep Power: 0 I think the guy in the rsx couldnt drive for crap.
also I'd say the TC held up pretty well considering it was stock and almost all the other cars were modded. put I/H/E on the TC and that civic woulda been behind. it should be pretty close though if the drivers were equal and clearly in this vid they werent.
