Must suck not knowing how to drive stick well..
One of the guys I work with has a 08 Civic SI Mugen and he asked me if I wanted to run my 08 tC which is 100% stock. So for ____s and giggles, I said yeah so I could be able to compare my tC now, to when I install my DME headers, Dezod S-Pipe back exhaust and Injen CAI. I know it isn't going to be much but I expect to see a lil difference. well.... we got to the highway and ran 4 times.
All 4 were at a 50 mph roll.. I was down on 3rd gear but from what it looks like, he was up on 4th or 5th. I was just pulling him from take off. I took my foot off the gas when I hit about 110 mph and didn't see him catching up anytime soon. It would of been better if I recorded it.. i know, i know
Must suck leasing a 30k+ car and not being able to drive it. Or............. that car is all show and no go just a thought...

i know a guy who got pulled over by a cop for racing.
the cop goes to his window and asked if they were racing.
the guys says "no officer, we were just driving really fast next to eachother.."
