I'll give you that. But unless you turned out sub-15 1/4 miles the SI driver couldn't drive worth a damn

The car has a claimed crank HP rating of 160... it weighs 150 lbs. less than me. You wanna tell me that a car that has more torque is going to lose? I had the kid for 3 car lengths off the line and still was gaining slightly.

I'm sorry, you actually think your Cavalier is faster than a Civic SI? Bahahahahaha.

Jason's SI ran a 15.26 bone stock a couple weeks before that picture was taken, Laura's was never raced before she sold it. Last time I talked to him it was running mid 14's.

I'd like to see timeslips for it. This is my second Civic Si that I've beaten. I'll step back when I find the Si that can hang with or beat my car, but until then...
Oh yeah... and just for the fact... I race with full interior. I don't do any of this seat pulling, spare tire losing, jack throwing bullshit.

On a side note, the show Super TNR is actually a decent show. The hosts speak like retards, but its more tech than rice.
They show how they install stuff, talk about the various types of performance mods, as well as having that Californian style.
Btw, are people in Cali really like that? Do they talk that way? Because their style of talking irritates me to no end..but its still a decent show...much better than that Hi-Rev Tuner crap!
Also, I like watching Trucks!, Horsepower TV, Two Guys & A Garage, and My Classic Car. All very good shows from which you actually learn something!
Also, regarding the Cavalier vs Si. I don't care if the Si is slower (which I doubt, but anyway), I'd still rather drive the Civic. I'll take slow car over crappy-ass quality car anyday!

I don't have any doubt that you did beat those 3 Civic Si but don't make youself think that your car is a faster car...stock to stock.
You put 2 equal drivers in any stock 99-00 Civic Si and any Cavalier Sport coup and the Civic Si will win ever time.

Some people probably don't know how to launch their cars
Now street racing might be illegal, but whether it puts people's lives in danger most of the time is much more debatable.
*buzzer* Wrong! Mine are completely red except for the reverse light. Altezzas are ghey.
Plus it doesn't take an idiot to learn how to launch a car.

It's not debatable. A friend of mine was killed last november as two people tried to race in the street struck his car. One of the drivers already had a prior conviction for street racing.
Rice your cars all you want. Just don't race in the damn street, that's what the Quarter Mile strip is for.
That sucks about your friend, but those guys are not your average street racers. Most of the racers I know are at least smart enough to do it late at night on roads that they know are not populated.
I agree with you totally on it. Then again, I think I just like seeing the look on the person's face when I can spit out my 60 foot time, quarter mile time, and quarter mile mph without thinking. I either get the reaction that, "You took a Cavalier to the track?" or "Wow, that's pretty quick for a 4 cylinder."
But there is a chance that you yourself might be rumbling down that road as your friends roar down it. At least on the real strips there isnt' anybody else on the road guaranteed.
I saw an ep of stupid 2ner TV... it was ghey. "Import culture" shows are just horrendous. HiRev Tuners is da worst... worst car show evar.
... agreed, street racing is dumb... especially for cars that are just plain dangerous at those speeds with the addition of bad drivers behind the wheels.
