If you give two people $10,000 and one has to do domestic and one import, the domestic will ALWAYS be faster. Plain and simple.

I still have to keep throwing this out:
Where do you import guys get that domestic cars can only go fast in a straight line? You know if FWD was really better for handling and getting around a race course then all the major race series would be using front drive cars.

i dont believe that but import cars have "better" handling around corners.

1. For all of you import guys who say "It feels so good to beat a 5.0 in my 1.8", how you think I felt when I was stomping on turbo Honda's and SR20's that had THOUSANDS of dollars invested in them (i can make a long list of TR members), when all I had was a lid/filter. Now that was some hilarious shit. 
2. For all the import guys saying "I can invest 15k in my Integra and beat Z06's". NONE of you guys have 15k to throw at your integra, so the point is null and void. Anybody with 15k in liquid cash lying around is not driving in a 89' Integra. They are probably in your STI's and EVO's, at which point the Cobra is still better bang for the buck.
3. Domestics cost 20-30k new, SPREAS OUT OVER 5-6 YEARS!!!!! Is that how long its gonna take you to build a fast Honda?? Not to mention I walked into CARMAX and bought my Z28 with no money down, no trade in. I didnt have a dollar in my pocket while I was there. I had a lid and filter put on the same day and was whooping import ass that weekend. Shit, I was running 12's before I made my first payment.
