I am going to be racing an 06 Civic SI, and an Rx8. My car is a full bolt on L98 that runs 13.5's all day long, and ran a best of 13.3. Races will be 0-80. Will it be ugly? And yes they talk alot. Both stock.

 

if its going to be 0-80 them you should have a problem with eaither car. the rx-8 will more the likely get destroyed out the hole unless he can drive well. the civic isnt all that fast eaither. whats your time on your 1000ft.

 

You are going to destroy them both like there is no tomorrow. In fact, you could spot them some distance.
Are you racing them at the same time? If you are not, I recommend you only race the rx 8 and not waste your gas on the civic, unless the losers fill up your tank. The civic is a low 15 sec car at best in its stock form. The rx 8 I think is about a mid to high 14 sec car.

 

I believe my 1000 was 11.1. However I do not have the time slips in front of me. Thanks for the responses guys!

 

the rx8 would be the only one outa the 2 to give you any trouble cause their pretty ligth an got 250 HP dotn even race the civic you could give him liike 7 cars an youd still beat him by like 5 lol

 

this rx8 has 232 hp i think.. pretty sure its an 06 as well.

It gets better, the civic isnt even an SI..

 

cant beleive your worried man both cars are slow. I've raced both in my L98 and beat them all by lengths

SI is slow and rx8 at the track is slow too. they struggle to break into the 14's some times

 

I have beat both cars in my LB9 before my rebuilt (my car used to run mid 14s in the quarter back then). You should not have any problems with either car. You are at least a second quicker than the rx8 in the quarter. That is a lifetime as fas as I am concerned.

 

Doesnt look like these races are going to happen after all. They dont seem too willing to put any cash down..

 

the only thing the rx8 will beat u in is a road course or some twisted roads.my bro has one there quick when they get going good.and the civic haha idk what it good at, maybe its good on gas lol.so yeah u should kill both car easy

 

My girlfriend owned an RX8 and it was slow. It got beat by a 98 civic SI with exhaust so about 15.3 car. (20-75) My girlfriends brother owned an 06 RSX type S aka civic SI and he could only get a 15.4 @ 91mph so i really dont think you would have a probleme at all. Unless one of them has a power adder, your car breaks, a large man like beast stops your with his mind powers; i dont see you loosing.

 

Unless you sit there and roast the tires at the line neither car has a snowball's chance in hell against you.

 

I just looked up the specs.

2005 RX8- 0-60 6.4 1/4 14.8. Motor trend
2006 Civic SI 0-60 6.8 1/4 15.8

Guessing the non SI is a high 16. lol. If they dont put any money down, this isnt worth my gas.

 

plzzz..my stock 89 formy auto 15.3 car beat them lol...v8 power baby

 

What do you guys think my 0-60 should be? like 5.0-5.2?

 

I'll race an RX8 in the twisties any day. Even a dragrace again one with my little LG4 wouldn't concern me too much - the RX8 is a tough car to launch optimally.
