first race in new truck
I raced this 2007 Honda Civic, wasn't an SI but it had the usual ricer mods (wing, huge coffee can exhaust tip, neons, ect.) My girlfriend and I were coming home from the city and he pulled up revving the **** out of it, i pretended to not even notice it. Right before the light turned green i revved up and popped the clutch and absouletly smoked him. I find it funny that I haven't done any mods at all yet and still american cars and trucks kick ***.
I love the V6 haha however i would kill for the eight.

Even the stock Civic runs a 16.1 @ 87 mph (according to Car and Driver) and you aren't running that fast. He wasn't racing you...

If you didn't put down him personally, make fun of his wife, or his mom, kick his dog, or spit in his drink then it wasn't harsh.

the first race is always the best wether you win, lose, or think you win. even if you aren't 'really racing'
