less weight= better acceleration = better 0-60 times. also, corners. 500 hp dont mean shit when you try to turn and the massive anchor in your engine bay makes you sledge into a parked car. herp durp, 500hp 80/20 weight distribution. waaaaaaaaaaat
@HamishRoake yeah, that's why I think Rotar engines are the future for racing because they have a better power to weight ratio then the average V block engine or 4 cylinder engine.
@TheSnowman4791 you are full of shit,... this video dates back easily 12-14 years ago, and was filmed in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Not in the US. You can ear them speak freanch ( french canadian).
If i remember correctly its one of the ISRC crew honda's. Thats when i started racing too, the last era that street racing was "legit".
I DONT AGREE THAT JAPAN CARS ARE BETTER THAN AMERICAN WELL NOT ALL OF THEM THEIRS A CAR THAT IS THE BEST AND THATS THE GTR YOU CANT MESS WITH THAT CAR BUT I THINK THE ZR1 CORVETTE COULD TAKE ANY OTHER CARS LIKE 350Z,370Z,SUPRAS ETC THE ZR1 IS THE KING OF DRAG RACING BUT OVERALL I THINK THE GTR ARE IS BETTER.
For anyone downing the ford mustang please look up the definition of a pony car. And for anyone who hates on any motor company well your just a plain idiot. Quit Hating and reapect the car.
Thats a god video. And the fuckin retard sayin "if it was a gt mustang then maybe there would have been a real race there" that corvette would walk any gt up till like a 2009 one and then the gt would only lose by like 2 car lengths. There is not a poonstang gt that stock can beat that civic I am betting it has a h22 like mine. Get your heavy ass ford poonstang and come race my h22a turbo crx and ill put $10000 on the race. FORD(Fucked on race day, for overly retarded drivers. VTEC FTW
I hope you are trolling, if not learn more about cars. a corvette = 10x as much as the little civic. also, chevy are junk you dumb twit. Ford are where its at. if it was a gt mustang then maybe there would have been a real race there.
@ContrabandRap your an idiot and know nothing about cars i could get 1000+ hp out of my 1999 mitsubishi eclipse GSX......... the cylinders have almost nothing to do about hp
@twintipskis360 yea they do..who u calin an idiot u fukin fag..the more cylinders the more power...if u can get 1000hp max outa a na v6 u can get well over that wit a na v8 v10 v12..just like ul never c a single cylinder lawn mower motor makin 1000hp.or even a 2 cylinder bike...idiot
@ContrabandRap yea and youll never see ANY American made car beat a toyota supra, rx7, subaru Imprezda WRX STI, 95-99 eclipse, evo,the list goes on and on and on..... "idiot"
@twintipskis360 hahahaha r u fukin serious???? i beat ma boys 2009 sti wrx in ma trans am..from the 80s!!plus they all got twin turbos or a turbo...if we put a setup on our cars u guys wldnt have a chance...a na supra or 300zx is bullshit its like a v6 camaro.they aint fast til u slap 2huge turbos on em..any car can b fast wit twin turbos..our shits r all motor
@ContrabandRap besides once again you know nothing about cars...... a 1999 mitsubishi eclipse GSX has a 4 cylinder engine retard..... and i know that my moms SUV which is a v8 could not get 1000+ hp
@twintipskis360 1st of all i kno maaad shit about cars..real cars.american muscle..a 4 cylnder dont even exist in ma books..i built ma trans am from the ground up.n ur moms suv v8 can get 1000 hp much easier then ur shitty lit 4banger..y do u think they use big v8 in funny cars?n all other real drag racers??n not 4cylinders??lkearn abt cars b4 u start talkin shit
@twintipskis360 also do u have any idea how hard it is 1 get 1000hp outa a 4??like u would need 2do everything known 2man wit spray 2 get it at 1000 hp..u can get a v8 at 1000hp wit not much work at all..change ur internals n throw a super charger on it..if u diod that 2 ur shit box ud have like 350 hp..which v8s can come stock wit
@twintipskis360 are u serious...u seriously think NO american made car can compete with thos weak ass cars u listed...i can make a list of my own...03-04 Termi cobras ..2011 5.0 mustangs run 12.6's stock!!!...any new C6 vette...the newer Z06 vettes run 10.9's STOCK!!..and the ZR1 is even faster...and the comment u made about cylinders have almost nothing to do with HP...are u fucking serious!!!!....dude...have some COMON SENSE....IT's called PHYSICS!!!...mod for mod..V8 will mureder EVERYTIME!!!
@ilovechevy1 ummmmm no it wont i just got a 2004 350z single turbo..... it completely smoked my friends comaro...... and my other friends dads cobra....... dodge charger are the only good american made cars
@twintipskis360 what are u talking about?...i'm talking mod for mod buddy...like.. my boosted 99camaro ss will murder your boosted turbo 350 Z..and if u think otherwise u need your head checked out..my car run's 10's....a STOCk 350 Z has no chance in hell at beating a stock LS1 Z28 camaro..or a Termi cobra.....and the dodge charger looks good but is a heavy ass boat.. new dodge challengers weighs 4100lbs..did u know that?...take your turbo car and go race other equally modded V8 american cars
@ilovechevy1 first of all im not your buddy, your a asshole which knows nothing..... Just face it man the American performance car industry just isnt as good as Japans and Germany, they are the dictionary term for "sports car"
@twintipskis360 yes u are my buddy lol...cuase after i raced u and owned u with my SS...i would just pat u on the head and say "it's okay buddy..u can still beat a stock civic tho"
@ilovechevy1 ok man lol we can both agree that they are both nice cars imo.... and pretty much whoever would win between us is the person who has more mods
@gheeener okay dumbass Chevy is worse than Ford? I think not. Compare top tier muscle cars against each other. 2011 Camaro z28 - 556hp. as to the 2011 Mustang barely breaking 300hp? Ummmmmm.....okay. hahahahahaha you're fucking retarded. if ford is so amazing then why do they have to let shelby motors make their engines for them?
sorry buddy i believe your wrong. on my way to work this morning in my si i ran across a speed demon in a vette. never raced a vette in this car only my prelude ive modded and i smoked that one. so on interstate dropped to 3rd gear we took off we was even. hit fourth gear the vette pulled slightly off from me...maybe 3 car lengths....redlined and shifted to fifth gear closed the gap in a second or two and blew the brakes off him. didnt even have to use 6th.
@Mr450 you stated, "thats sad that 450 hp cant get you past 12.5 without radials." 450HP is not going to have the same effect on a car that weighs 1500-1600lbs more bud. a small 4 cylinder engine cannot take high HP numbers without having forced induction. therefor, absolutely everything has to be top of line, pretty much racing parts. those are not cheap by any means. go try to find someone at a track that actually has a 400HP civic and ask them how much they've dumped into it.
@Mr450 because if you really do have experience with them, you would realize a 2000lb car is not going to take the same amout of HP to go as fast as a 3600lb car. Not to mention the 400whp Civic thing.. that probably wouldn't even be street legal in most states... and theres the whole money thing again, you're looking at probably almost $20K to get that much power. any car with a V8 is going to give you way higher HP numbers for probably not even half the cost. do you realize that?
@Mr450 i've driven a 08' Shelby Mustang.. no civic can beat that car without some serious help (; and a 400whp 'Stang would be hittin 12.5's with drag radials. now dude...all i'm saying is that to me, and many many other people, is that blowing money like that just isn't really worth it on a civic! haha. but all in all... you should probably start working on some cars.
@Mr450 you don't have to, nobody said you did. i take it you've never actually tried to turbo a civic.... let alone have much experience with building them. its a pain dude. i would have loved selling you the car since you don't believe me.
and yes i know that the civic in the video beat the Corvette. but i'll guarantee you that whoever built it, put way more than $5K into it. i've seen people invest over $15K to break 11s with civics.
@Mr450 we didn't tune it? we brought it to a highly praised shop in the area. it was dyno tuned. i'm not sure what else you would mean by the right hands.. my uncle was who got the best time out of it... he's been building and racing drags cars for 20+ years.
@Mr450 wasn't gutted because that wouldn't be street legal here, and yeah.. thats gay :P the best quarter mile time anyone could get out of it was a 14.45. all our times were right around there. it couldn't beat a stock mustang dude. now i'm not saying the car wasn't fun and a quick little sucker... but its way to much money for such little outcome.
@Mr450 sure, but barely. and to get that kind of HP out a civic engine.. its gonna cost at LEAST twice as much. a friend of mine and myself started a build on a civic last year. we turbo'd it and had put about $5K total into it for performance stuff. all that money for only 230 at the wheels... we came to our senses and decided it was gay haha
wow you people are stupid as FUCK hating on Hondas. i have a 92, yea a fuckin 92. honda hatchback with "upgrades" that cost more than your whole fucking car. i make 450 to the front wheels thats most than 75% of cars MADE. i beat vettes, camaros, mustangs, trans ams and every other fag who thinks racin 5000 pund deathtraps is better than going 0-60 in a few short breaths.
@nug4life i'd rather spend about $1500-$2K on a car with a V8... then spend about $5K on "upgrades," then have 550+ HP to the wheels (; how much have you put into your car?
Honda civic? seriously. You would be better off with a geo metro. Civics don't even sound beastly, it sounds like a high school student who just got their cheap car and put a whole bunch of "upgrades" on it.
@animeduder i doubt it, this video is over 12 years old, and was filmed in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I know because thats when i started racing in the street, that civic was one of the fastest street car back then,....
