agreed with john and justin's comments. too bad traction owns ME right now...or well, lack of it.

also, 200whp in a crx (say 2000lbs) is good for 12s.
im guessing the civic is either a trendy hatchback or a coupe (isnt there a kid named mcginn with a white one? not sure if his does 220), and 220whp would definately be enough for at least 12s, fwd's do better on the street IMHO whereas RWD's hook better at the track (ever tried launching on the street and hitting those white painted stopbar/crosswalk bars on the asphalt? all i got was spin spin spin even when i was at 135rwhp), so its likely the honda could have gotten the rx7.

but if this rx7 indeed has 425hp, make the race from a 30mph roll, or just make it up to 150 and it might be a different story.
