Focus vs Legend vs Civic

1) Ford Focus 4dr w/exhaust
2)Late 80s Acura Legend V6
3) Me - 2002 Civic EX A/T w/resonator removed

All cars auto.

We were all laughing at the light revving and the guy in the legend was over doing it (clapping, turning up his music, etc) haha.. so anyway we're at a red light. And we all floor it basically... I pulled on both of them half a car length and we stayed that way 'til 50 when the Legend starts pulling on me... we were around 60 at that time, so i shut it down( dont really want to go too fast on streets) and so the focus and legend battle it out and its hard to say who won from there but the legend was ahead the whole time..until he shut it down, and the focus did a fly-by. I was suprised to pull on a Focus. We all floored it at the same time and I took them both up to 50. Fun! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

Focus might have more crank HP, but they are still slower.
