Jhonda has a little shameless behaviour in the past
99 si vs svt focus

I raced a 99 civic si. It was from a roll at about 45mph (I think I was in second gear) so I told him to go first so there was no question about I jumped the gun. Well I beat him by about 5 car lengths and let off about 115 or so. Well anyway I pulled up to Automotive Anything and he pulled in behind me. He was a nice guy and told me he had a intake, exhaust,
lowered (sport line) volk racing rims (17") and a 100shot of nitrous (but I know he wasn't spraying at the time)
I have afx udp, off road pipe, borla exhaust, cervins hood mach 5, gutted hatch (still a spair), kumo 712s, 10% tint

Nice kill seems like it was somewhat even race since he didn't spray.

6th gen Si with intake and exhaust vs svt focus with afx udp, off road pipe, and exhaust. hmmm... I could break about 15 flat and an occasional high 14 with i/h/e on my old Si.

Bad driver methinks in the Si. ??

None the less... you won.

Or pardon my ignorance, what do you run at the track?

havent

I havent run at a 1/4 mile track yet but remember my car aint made to be drag racing its made to handle...Im pretty sure he would have beat me out of the hole due to shorter gear ratios, but remember we were going from a roll.
Also I dynoed at 160whp 140tq sorry but I don't know how to post any pictures but maybe I could try emailing them to somebody

The strongest gear on the 6th gen Si is 3rd. FYI.
