you guys are starting to sound like a honda forum
 the gt does not weigh 2400 lbs, thats the st territory, the gts are more like 2500-2600 lbs, 2001 and under civics are close to 2200 lbs for coupes/sedans and the hatchbacks are nearly 2000-2100 lbs, and a bunch of mis-pointed info, blaghh.....forget it.....to the thread starter, you gotta be more specific mang, what year civic with what engine, auto or manual, etc etc,.....hondas have a good top end, sorry to say our celicas do not, the st can probably keep up with non-vtec civis stock for stock, for the vtec civics the st has no chance stock for stock auto vs auto manual vs manual and granted both drivers are equally matched, but seriously guys, lets not bench race here,.....just face the fact that the st are slow and the gt is not far behind according to my "quarter mile" thread and 5-spd gt celicas running 17s unfortunately, civic owners dont seem to realize how bad of rep civics are, untill they've become a non-honda owner themselves or similiar, |

This one’s kinda similar. http://videos.streetfire.net/category/Toyo...FFEC3382D34.htm dude. he had a terrible start too, he sat there for almost a second after the green light lit up. I think he might've been able to pull off 8.0 or even 7.9 if he had a better launch EDIT: wait, does he have to wait until that light way down the track lights up before he can go? (at about 37 seconds into the clip) sorry, I don't know much about drag racing. You start when the green light (the lowest on the tree) shines for your lane. The first portion of the vid does not show us the Supra's start light. The second part (in the car) does.  Yellow94GT |

right,..........but is it manual or auto? sure it has 125hp, but minus 10+ for the auto, if its auto, and you are manual, you might have a chance

man, last night I lost to a VW passat! I was at a red light, and he was pulling up to the red light... so my excuse is that he started from a 3-4 mph roll and I was at a stop. but I was accellerating pretty quick, but he was still accellerating faster... by the time we were going around 45 mph his rear bumper was pretty much even with my front bumper. so he wasn't that much faster than me... but still, it hurt...

QUOTE(devilsden97 @ Jul 6, 2006 - 2:51 PM) [snapback]452715[/snapback] ^ what is that! omg WHAT IS IT! RUN! ITS A HONDA! AHHHHH! lol idk, the civic has always had close to 100hp...same as the st, so idk maybe its because the civic is newer and has less wear and tear so it has better pick up? idk but i think that a gt (auto or stick) would smash a civic ps nice mkIII supra (note from background of civic pic) THAT JUST MADE MY NIGHT! thank you!
