What a suprise...
Actually Civic Si's have gone faster than 14.3 stock, thats just what I've seen in person...
I know for a fact they've been as low as 14.0. With I/H/E they can be a 13 second car without some kinda magic tune that seems to be the scapegoat for everyone. Given a good driver in the right conditions, and no not a 40mph tailwind, just near 0 DA and a good track.

Sure it's a negative DA, but even corrected for alititude the time is till a 14.3...
Dyno of the same stock Civic...

so yea anyone want any special request like what mph roll you would like to see. top speed cannot exceed 135 because the si's limiter stops there... funny because i'm not even out of 4th at 135 lol. but yea i'll be happy to take request from Slow Sho and Terminator... just shoot me a p.m. (slow and term.)
you'll still win, i've done it with an si, thats why i requested a 65 roll, they cant win from an even roll, i've never done a 20 so maybe that will be closer...

just because its not from a stop doesnt mean it isnt a race...

im assuming you say its not a race because it requires very little skill from a roll... and by back roads(involving turns) it isnt all about straight line or from a stop

i never said i race on back roads, read the posts... i listed common types of street racing. if i was some idiot racing through small streets in residential areas i would probably have had an accident or ticket by now...

i dont understand why it wouldnt be, its racing on the streets, one car against another = street racing
and canada sucks because one person acknowledged back road racing as street racing.... we have the same selection of cars here as in the u.s. and they street race just like everywhere else...

i never said roll racing wasnt real racing first of all, i actually said he is the better driver, dig races are real races from my point of view at least. he made a handle on here and has to wait a day to leave comments 08blackSI i think it is. dont talk dirt on him he's a cool dood, and he can drive the **** out of his car...
