Default Civic vs Lightning, Mustang, Camaro

well, tonight turned out to be kinda interesting...as i didn't make it out to the usual destination until 2am...

once i arrived i found myself being surrounded by ricers wanting me to run a 99-00 Civic Si with JRSC. i declined...and wasn't really in the mood to run anyone until the ricers left...etc...

so finally, that happened and i ended up agreeing to run a lightning (whose owner is on the board named "fusion" i think???) from a 40mph roll. we ran, and he was 3 deep w/ people and he pulled me by over a car to 115mph...



about an hour after that i found a group of v8 guys...one with 97 LT1 SS, Fox Body Mustang with some work done, and a 2000+ GT w/ 3.73 gears, intake, exhaust and something else.

first run was with the mustang, 40-115 was what we figured (as i can't go any faster with my ECU) and i pulled him by 2-3 cars easily.

second run came against the fox body mustang, not sure what he had but it sounded like the strongest of the 3 and i pulled him by a solid car before he shut it down at around 85mph.

third run came against the 97 LT1 w/ exhaust and i'm not sure what else...and i pulled him by at least 2 cars and maybe more.

they were all friendly and respectful toward my 4 cylinder economy car...and we talked for 15 minutes and then went on our seperate ways.

this setup still needs to be tuned, exhaust leak needs to be fixed and i need to remember not to run on a full tank of fuel.
