Be CAREFULL.

If they start adding stickers, they gain like 100hp.
So if you see a guy at the track with a squeegee, look out.

umm...............NICE car chevykiller. very clean hood shot. i like it. and i wouldnt worry about the imports........well, at least not the ones who run their mouth. if they dont run their mouth, its because 1) they DO have something done, and they are fast, or 2) they kno you can beat 'em. but, i wouldnt worry about it. just keep shuttin 'em up the way you are now..........theyll learn someday.......maybe....

Shrug....I know a way to get myself into the low 13's, there is a lot of crap I could rip out to save weight.
But why? I got a nice car, I love it, and I'm keeping it in one piece. If I'm going low 13's or 12's, I'm probably going to go through and TT it, since that's the easiest option.

On a side note, since I am in the 13s, once I get a new clutch (just released!!), pulley, and rest of my exhaust, the Accord is done.
And it's on to either a bike or a project car (something rwd/awd). Been looking at Fox's, I love 'em.

Who cares really? let them think what they want. I dunno why you get worked up over something as inane as this.
you get worked up over a lot more stupid stuff than this.

I dont need to rip out my interior... I always run full interior
that's why you only run like 12s. take out your head unit and seat covers and you'd be running low 11s all day.
Maybe 10's

The Accord V6 is a nice car, my previous car was an '04 TL, with the AT it ran 14.7@98mph, not too shabby for a stocker.
