    Well take a "pro" driver and put him/her into said truck and into a sportscar and the outcome will be the sportscar all the time.

    Take different drivers or good vs. average driver and then the truck is a possible winner.

    Sucks about your truck man, the roads have devoured many vehicles over the years.

    BUT

    Come on man, youve got the bed cut and running crappy tires with a lighweight v8 truck.. you really didnt expect it to oversteer?

    The Elise is one of the best handling cars in the world, the Civic... Not so much.

    A stock civic, you're right, but I guarantee you his will hold it's own with a stock Elise if not beat it on the track. I wish some of you Honda haters would do some track days. A lot of you would go home embarrassed.

    Glad you're ok. I know how bad rollovers can be (and I had a rollcage). Are you going to strip and rebuild or strip and sell?

    Oh...and how the hell did you not get a ticket? That's skill!

    Them damn civic owners and no one is saying it didnt have a suspension set up, but by seeing the pics, I guess it wasnt enough of an investment? Center of gravity will still own a truck regardless of what you spend on suspension and brakes, Proof is in the pictures.

    Only proof in the picture is driver error. I know what I did wrong, nothing I can do about it now other than start over.

    Yup. I tell you what next time there is a track day at TGP, if you can lap him in a 15 min session I'll pay for your trackday. If you can't, you pay for ours.

    It's only a 1.4 mile track so it shouldn't be too hard right?

    obviously u have never seen slow_hatch drive on the track or in the mountains, not trying to ride slow-hatch's diick but i have riden behind hi in the mountains and the man has skills. he also has something u dont, that is experience. slow_hatch lives up there and i dont me he goes up there on a regular basis either. he actually lives up there in a house, so he already has the advatage over u in knowing the roads and his limits. and im pretty sure his limits exceed ur's. but there is truly only one way to find out.

    IA.....We know drama....and morons.
    I said he would "HOLD HIS OWN IF NOT BEAT A STOCK ELISE". It's a small track, if you can get a few seconds a lap on him you'll be able to lap him in a 15 min session. I'm offering you a bet since your so confident. I'm not betting on him beating you, but that you can't lap him. It would only take gaining about 4-5 seconds per lap for you to lap him in 15 mins. If he "holds his own" you won't lap him. If you can only gain 2 seconds a lap, then your car is not much faster than his, and he's holding his own.

    If your car is so almighty, and you're so experienced put your money where your mouth is. After all it's just a honda civic right? Just a friendly wager man, a trackday is only $180. So if you lose you're only out another $360. You're so intellegent, and you drive an elise so I know you make enough money to make that bet. And besides I'm a "moron", so come take this "morons" money.

    Can you show me anything in here where I said that my car was the shit, or that I am the best driver out there?

    Let me give you some advice.....

    1. Read shit first, before you open your cock sucker.
    2. A Honda Civic is NOT a sportscar
    3. Get the sand out of your vagina and move on.
