ooops, was a big one then. Jerm done well LOL

Backoff: closer to a porta-power and a welder! lol and we need to throw in a couple of rims and a tire too!

some duct tape anda hammer and she'll be good as new!!!

and don't forget the right equipment! the front-loop gave instead of the driver giving! kinda like the crush-zones the engineers design! if i was racing for points this year, we coulda made it drivable tonight!

for sure, id always encourage anyone who wants to drive fast.... to do it in the right places with the right facilities etc.

Thats cool then :o)

he's fine, the car will be! no worries! just the result of a 14yr old feeling his oats! lol i guess it's better on the track than in his moms' car on the street in a coulpe of years!

oh dear, bad? Is he ok?

the kid whacked the car tonight! lol

LMAO

Stevie: ya know we love ya stevie! lol even if you do sit on the wrong side of the car!

MidnightMcMedic: i noticed that too! i just thought stevie was waiting for the real driver to get there! lol

LMAO minor detail ;op anyways.. i had to sit that side as the stickers on the windscreen would have been in the way LOL

Nice piccy Steve, but uhhh your on the wrong side of the car! LOL

ANTICHRIST: Thats trhe mercedes / mclaren i was on about a few days back :o)

just a normal vtec, 2001 stock standard
quite weak on power during overtaking.
A good grandma car, driven on sundays only (honest ;)

wayney: is that a vtec engine or normal 8 valve?
Ally's 1.6 vtec delsol (2 door convertable civic) with induction kit and sports exhaust doe sit in around high 16's ( not sure of the bhp of it).

It depends of if your civics are same as ours, and what age etc etc. can you show me a piccy on the net of the type you have, and Ill find out from my club members for you

somewhere in the 17-20 second range depending on which tranny and the caffine intake of the driver.

Stevie: just to put a 1/4 mile into perspective for someone like me who has never done it.
What time would say a stock standard normal little 4 door honda civic with about 125 HP pull in a qm?

I suppose I would guess over 20 but would be curious to know

yes,but it flies

tazman7474: so true LOL

nobleheart...thats ugly LOL

Stevie: lol, i've been trying to tell the guys for years, that you can make a million hp, but if you don't put it on the ground. all you're gonna do is make noise and smoke!!

tazman7474: Its 1/4mnile, just the same as the TAD and drag bikes etc all over the world do.

Wayney: yes it was from stand still ( best reaction time I got was 0.402seconds)

Bwildman: yep, thats on the engine I rebuilt

Backoff: you fool LMAO

Best bit is that Mr Chairman (me) won all his runs against Mr vice Chairman and other club staff who have more BHP and LB/ft than me :oD LOL

bwildman:

Stevie: very nice.
Thats an average of more than 100 kmh
Considering its from a stopped position, very very impressive for a street legal car.
I think I could pull a 14 second 1/4 block in mine :(

tazman7474: cant be too long...he'd run out of country!! LOL...WTG Steve!! is this the engine you replaced?

Ha, I can run that on foot!!!

j/k

good job!

Stevie: congrats!!! how long is the strip you guys use over there? just wondering

I got 14 seconds dead at 96Mph up the strip on sunday :oD not bad for a road car

Backoff:
Now lets compare that to the viper which can be found at most Dodge Dealerships in the US.

500 horsepower
525 lb-ft of torque
505 cubic inches of displacement
Acceleration1 0-60 mph in 4.0 seconds
Standing 1/4 Mile (stock) 12.1@119.3 MPH
Lateral Acc. 1.02G (Lets see the benz do this)

I had a 1994 RT/10 which was just about 400 HP. There was a kit that the shop on Long Island would install for another $15,000 to drop the 0-60 to 3.7 seconds.

There was one drawback: this sidepipes would get red hot! Occasionally when getting out of the car, my left leg would get too close to it, and damn!

I don't like the body style of the new Vipers, but 500 HP is nothing to sneeze at either.
