Very true.

Though a daily driven 11s car isn't hard on a turbo car.

you should race this "13.8" Civic. When you beat him by like 10 cars, you can say you run 12s.

:hail: took the words right out of my mouth. I've heard several ricers talking about running 12's and 13's, then you ask what track they went to and it turns out to be an 1/8 mile track. I've given a few people that drive "rice" cars a ride in my T/A. Needless to say, after driving a civic or an accord around all day, they pretty much wet their pants after riding in a car with real power. BTW, after you beat the two rice cars don't forget to say, "owned" it's really funny.

I think he meant 18.3's not 13.8's.

Seriously...line em up and just tell him to take off. Get out of your car, check tire pressure and oil level, get back in, get some tunes going, check your hair in the rearview, then hit it and waste him.

All kidding aside, Ive seen turbo civics run much slower than 13.8

I think the main problems is people that aren't educated with track times. They have no idea what is fast and what isn't. People watch movies like fast and furious where all the cars run "10's" like it's an everyday thing. I find if you take these people who think 12's is slow to a near track, they will leave finding out a 15 flat is quick....
