Great kill Yorchi, looks like you had him by at least 3 car lengths by the time you passed the camera.
Even though he was no competition for you, I still feel you did the right thing by not racing for pinks. I wouldn't take 3 of those civics for your Mach 1, and also you just never know....
Thanks for making us proud....another ricer bits the dust.

Little something you might want to know about the full potential of light imports with engine swaps. While I will agree with u about being able to beat this guy but tiny civics with somewhat potent 4 bangers can eat some muscle cars for lunch. My dad's friend build a CRX and managed to cram an H22 (190 hp vtech pulling 7500 revs) into the tiny engine bay. He also stripped the interior of just about anything and added a 75 dry shot of n20. So comes the time for him to test drive his little weekend plaything, he ran 13.5s with street tires. Now seeing as how this kid probably doesnt know what hes doing you will smoke him.
but damn
Beat up CRX body - $700
Used H22 Motor - $800
75 Shot - $600
Smoking Grandpa in his '69 Camaro - Priceless

I know the full potential of the 4 banger world...I used to have my own...an h23 Prelude Si...I love them too, I just know that unless it's a fully built b16 with some type of forced induction or n20...I should have nothing to worry about...I just wanted to post up the story and vid
he aint got a chance. just race the dumb beotch finally and shut him up. if you dont race him thats not cool. you should real soon so we can stop gossiping like a bunch of women.

good rule of thumb......dont ever race for pinks, and if you do, make sure its someone you can beat the living $hit out of. dont be as gay as paul walker.
In my opinion, stay away from him. He may just be overconfident, or he may be hiding some nitrous somewhere. I've raced both modded SI's and a couple of mach 1's and barely beat both of them. Granted the modded SI had an H22 in it, which obviously makes more HP than a B16. All in all, its not worth it. You dont have the money to lose and he really isnt worth it. Take it to the track and settle it like men. Heads up, from a dig. I think it will be close, but you should take him if you are a better driver.

let me give u all a lil history on this guy...hes the guy u love to hate...reasons why:
hes the kid that in the 5th grade, would talk about ur mom, sister, aunt grandma...any female u cared about, so you would whoop on him, then hed get up with a bloody nose and talk more smack then run home to his mom...
hes the kid that has every sticker that autozone, kragen, and pep boys make...
hes the kid whose spent more money buying every light, every whistle, every antenna, every gauge, he can fit inside his car, but nothing big under his hood...
hes the kid who shows up to every party, every gathering, every place u purposely dont invite him too, and talks smack the whole time...
hes the kid who hits on every girl, argues against everyone, for anything, thinks he knows everything in the world, never gives in, revs his engine at everything, loses big time and still talks smack...
i think ill race him and video tape it...
I think they have a word for those type of peopleRICER rings a bell

Well as we all know and have said one way or another this guy knows he is outclassed so he offers to put his $4000 car's pink slip up for grabs as a bet for your $20,000 car. All I have to say is what a ricetard .
I bet you a dollar if you give me two dollars I'll give you three in return...
Here's what I'd do. I'd accept the offer and show up with a friend's crotch-rocket cycle. He never specified anything, did he?
Step two: Put the moron in his place. You can either risk the fact that he'll stoop to the level of sabotage, or play offense.
Don't race for pinks. It's not worth it. Seriously. Not because I'm against racing for pinks, but for the cost of your car versus the cost of his car.
You always have to plan for that worse case scenario.
Take Glen's idea and slap $500 on his Hood and say "We race now, we race for this." and see what he does. If he doesn't do it, call him out. If he tries to say you're scared of losing your car, say you are.
Guys like him are easy to take down if you simply play with their mind. Give them nothing to talk smack about and they've got nothing left.
