Maikl congrats, even if you lost that doesn't mean anything, at least you came close. Hondas have an advantage over us really, weight difference and the fact that they have loads of options to modify their cars. I'm sure he had more in there than just toda cam gears, no one will ever say the truth about what they have under the hood. And as you said he came with semi-slicks...i bet he was really scared...he took you and your car very seriously....Respect to the Celica and respect to maikl for beeing happy and keeping his head up

I like that you made the response without taking some silly pot-shot at Hondas... I figured you'd lose based on the ITR's mods and your whp. Comparatively speaking... both cars probably weigh the same. Integras of any generation were always around 2500 pounds, the relative weight of a typical Celica. He just has you out-gunned in almost every way, from mods, to overall performance, to slicks, etc... I'll tell you, if he was running camshafts... he woulda walked you by a long shot. Honda B series are no joke. The unfortunate thing is, we don't have any BEAMS 3SGE's here in the States so I can't really make a super accurate comparison... but yeah. So long as you have fun... You know he was serious and showed a bit of respect... that's all I'd ask for. -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"

I wouldn't bother though if the guy went against his word cause he wanted to make sure he'd win. |

Maikl i'm sure you would have owned him if he hadn't gone in to all that trouble taking out stuff just to save weight and also them semi-slicks, which gave him a serious advantage at take off. Anyway it's all good feel happy that you came really close and went into the race as you drive your car everyday
