the pattern is right, but they look slightly "thin," compared to the OEM ones. hmm...

do you see in the passing videos at the track how all the cars slow down to let those civics pass?

they figure "$1800 junkyard car?!". it can't have good brakes, i'd better get out of its way. the last thing i want is my ride to be hit by a cash for clunkers car!

hehehe

seriously.... a junkyard car should be racing in the demolition derby, not dropping loose bolts and parts all over the track! hahahahaha.

i was really hoping to see some more coupe-ish hondas in the FF squad video.

can't help but, i'd prefer to see some DA, BB, or CB chassis putting it down. though EG is one of the most simplest and lightest chassis, i'm not a huge fan of its looks. its inherent high visibility makes hiding interior mods difficult if it were to be modded as a track car, with its high profile/theft rate and all...

they just don't seem to make honda's like the good ol' days anymore. clean, and small simple coupes.

VTEC hasn't died on me, but if you can get over the power hype... it seems to be easier to enjoy other honda cars.

or was that just me sounding old?

nah, vtec just kick in (the del slo) yo!
