So Slim is either running 12's or high 11's. This is still depending on what they ran up too.. I get all the import mags and I have to agree a 10 sec Honda is not streetable.. Weight does help a car move down the road and could give someone an incredible jump and the illusion that the other car is not going to catch them.. I am thinking we have not heard the entire story.. I am sure some kind of forced induction is in play here. Bring the gutted CRX out this weekend and call one of the modded f-bodies out. We will be out..
Very rational thinking. Raced from a stop, and yes... slim is either running 12s (as he was before) or high 11s. Maybe even better, who knows. Hmm.. which one is it? I guess whoever wants to know will find out when they race him.
