    I want to know - how many street legal all motor 4 cyl Civics (of any body style, including Del Sols, CRXs, etc) drive to the track, run 10's, and drive back home? Are there any? I've never heard of one.

    per the rules, they must all be street legal, pass inspection, etc... that whole class runs 10's if i'm not mistaken!!

    You are thinking of the Pro cars, all out race, tube frame... Those guys run 9's..

    O well in that case the extreme street classes at NMRA and lsx shootout events that run 8s and 7s are street cars then...hell larry larson runs 6's in his street car...likelihood of seeing any of those cars just riding around everyday is slim to none...do these cars run pump gas when they race? do they ride around on slicks? Just cause its "street legal" doesnt mean they drive it on the street...just saying

    How come all the ones online don't seem to be doing that? I can't find any of them. You ran that class at IS, right? You weren't close to 10s, were you?

    No, no one running import showdown has run 10's, not all motor.. But in IDRC, Battle or the imports, etc they run 10's in their all motor class.. What is your point anyways? I feel your comparing a V8 to a 4 cyl again...

    I want to know - how many street legal all motor foxbodies run 12s, don't break down, get 30+mpg, and do more than drive in a straight line? Are there any? I've never heard of one. Oh wait. maybe if they are LS swapped.

    Why is the 30 mpg shit coming into here...no one builds a performance car or race car to get gas mileage...thats a useless argument and there are plenty out there...i dont see 12 sec hondas all over the place either so its not a very valid argument just saying...and lol on the ls swapped thats an awesome swap

    well what bothers me is most of the cars the mustang troll is talking about are cars you'd never want to DD on the street. if they are fast they most likely aren't manuals, have a crazy stall, idle like shit, get < 10mpg. etc.

    sure my honda only runs 12s but overall it drives just like a normal civic, only 3x the power.

    foxbodies are mostly like civics. any one that is fast is going to have extreme modifications. you don't take a 15.0 second car and turn it into an 11 or 10 second car with bolt ons. they are complete turds as they came from ford, and no stock foxbody is worth a shit until you change the motor, suspension, tranny, fuel system. etc. just like a civic

    IF we are talking TRULY legal, none. No car runs 10s all motor on 93 octane , has cats, etc.

    If you mean street legal meaning regular glass and body panels (carbon fiber) and not tube frame, then theres a few.

    Not comparing to V8s - comparing to 4 cyls.
    So, since all of these all motor Civics are street legal 10 sec cars, why did Bobby say that it wasn't fair for him to run his all motor Civic vs my all motor Honda?

    Ha well its a race car even if it is "street legal" is my point, they have the same type of classes as NMRA and lsx shootout events they call em street cars but they are never really on the streets..my car was a manual, got 16 mpgs, ac, ps, full interior, radio, etc granted the manual died and my broke college ass couldnt afford a 6 speed swap lol thats the only reason i went auto...and you car "only runs 12s" its still a fast car hell alot of cars cant touch 12 sec cars im just making the point that 12 sec na civics, crxs, etc are prob less common than 12 sec na foxes...it only bothers me when the mpg thing gets brought into the conversation because if i wanted speed and mpgs id get a bike as would most

    Complete turd is an understatement, now take that motor and put it in a vert sn95 even more of a turd lol...you can take a stock internal fox to the 400 hp range, im running stock fuel lines and rails, i know plenty of people rocking the stock t5 on 400+ whp cars, gforce on heres dad is runnin 501 on it...but change is good but what can you expect from 1989 compared to 2011 technology wise

    Ps...im ready for our race in november

    None of them. They all run 13's and break down constantly.
    All of them can take curves - there's a turn at the end of every dragstrip.....

    Mine is a 15 second, $25K money pit, that only gets about 2mpg, and ends up in the sandpit everytime at the track. Don't even know why it came with a steering wheel.

    Actually, I know of plenty 10 sec daily driven Mustangs, Camaros, and Vettes - and they are usually very minimally modded. Not all Mustangs are foxbodys. Not all are all motor though.

    I also know of several 10 sec Civics that are daily driveable - but none are all motor.

    I was specifing all motor earlier. Your's is the best that I have seen for driveable on the street, and I know you aren't running 10s.

    Both are 4 cyl Hondas, the Civic makes more power, but the bike weighs less. It's the same distance being races, seems like apples to apples.....

    Not any different than comparing V8s and 4 cyls, which you do all the time....

    I have no clue about them, I haven't followed that scene much.. I'm sure they are out there, like 10sec mustangs, vette's, etc.. I speak on the atlanta scene, and my car, which is a street car..

    We took a stock coupe this year, but a nice big shot of juice on it, with a set of slicks and a cheap converter, and went 11.6's consistently. Full weight, and full interior. Granted, it was being heavily abused.

    See this is where i beg to differ, i dont for see these heavily cammed, ITB, crazy high hp Ks just running around the streets on pump gas at least...i mean realistically what are they like 12.5:1 CR and up? Thats a bit much for pump IMO but nothing is wrong with a 12 sec car especially on a DR and ill be at ISD if you feel like gettin drug by a car that almost weighs twice what yours does

    Your right, most run e85 or q16 i'm sure, and atlanta don't have any fully tricked out k26 or k27 blocks so keep watching youtube...LOL

    But

    Remember no bench racing now, but since you started i'll ask this; How many MPH in 1/4 would I pick up on 100 shot? Just compare some notes, and you could calulate a time for me on spray... Just sayin!!
