so i was driving down the street and a honda del sol pulls up next to me and says do you want to race im like sure. well i lost from a stop twice i couldnt keep traction through 1st or second. then we went from a roll and im an idiot wasnt thinking and started in second at 25 so i was at his bumper. we stopped and talked it was the si vtec version with a cam header back exhaust and a cai. point of the story is either way i dont want to lose to him again and i dont want to stay close to him either so i think my next mod is a trac-lock, 4.10 and practice my launching.

 

he wouldnt of killed me

 

"I coulda had a V-8"

 

Del Slow... the red headed FWD step child of the S2k lol...

Don't feel bad, the thing weighs like 1800 and if he had vtack and those mods it only helped.

(O_o)?

 

i wish i coulda had a v8 but $ is always the issue

 

Get some spray.
4.10s and a trac lock are a good start though.

 

I think i know the problem, its the V6...

get a v8 or do a stroker turbo v6 with supporting driveline.

but hey, you can put the new dodge charger v6 down, i raced an auto one in my 99 v6 vert, and won 3 times from a dig to 100 by about 2 or 3 cars, i was stock btw

 

Get some spray....or two more cylinders.

 

that sucks that you lost. but, like someone else said, they dont weigh anything. and the sohc vtec is i think @ 130 or 150hp, i cant remember. but if they did a swap and had a B16 in it, thats 160hp stock in a LIGHT *** car. so, no shame in that in my opinion. its not your fault Ford built an overweight, underpowered car.

 

If you were spinning through 1st and 2nd I'd recommond some wider/stickier tires and not 4.10s for your next mod. oh yeah.. get a procharger & new pistons for that 400rwhp and go smoke some modded GTs
