Went to a co-workers house for a BBQ earlier tonight, bunch of guys talking about cars and being in Abilene Texas(for work), musclecarville, people of course started talking shit about my Integra. "rice burner" this, "4banger" that, blah blah blah...after a while I told them if they really knew anything about cars they wouldn't be talking shit about mine.
Long story short, the guy that owns the house we were at has a '69 Camaro with a moderately built small block 350 and we ended up setting up a friendly race.
95 Integra GSR 1.8liter 4 banger vs. 69 Camaro with sb350 5.6liter? V8
Now the guy with the Camaro actually knows cars very well and understood why my car would be competition (forced induction FTW) but everyone else was still talking.
Lined up for the first race, 3rd honk we took off, he had a bad launch so I got the jump and took it all the way with 5-6 car lengths by 100mph. Should have seen every ones face, they didn't believe it. They demanded a rematch because of the crap launch.
We lined up again, 3rd honk he flat out launched the piss out of it and raped me off the line by a couple car lengths, once I got some decent traction in 3rd gear I rolled right on by and had a car length on him at 100mph. All we heard after we got back was "WHAT THE FUUUUUUUUCKK!???!"
Ahh, it was .
Technology FTW.
Will have pics up tomorrow.
