There is a punk in my town with a del sol and he says hes a 'streetracer' and 'he races for money' I really want this dude to get beat, and I was wondering if i should challenge him to a race,(at a track) so before i embarrass myself will my 97 civic ex beat his del sol if we both have intake and exaust?

I suggest finding out exactly what he has under that hood before you go challenging him. If he wont tell you, then race him and find out for yourself.

where in south carolina? I live in charleston. If he has some bottom of the line del sol you might get him... do you have a 2 or 4 door? I could see him posibly winning because of weight factor. If you have a 2 door youll have a good chance to get him.

Lexington, near Columbia, i got a 2-door. My dad lives in goose creek they got some sick rides in charleston.

Yea, there is this one guy who has a stock looking civic but its lowered and has some rims and a stock spoiler. Its jet black and has a friggin H22 swap with a s/c in it... he eats 350z's alive.

All depends on his motor. I belive you have the weight advantage though.

Dont forget the B16A3 was givin to us in the del slow. If thats what hes got hell dust you.

How many guys would go around saying they were a "street racer" and race for money if they didn't have the B16?
