Ok honestly why do all these kids with D series Honda Civics keep talking about how they run quarter mile and thats all that they run and their car is quote Fast as hell.

WTF Im tired of all these retarded kid parked next to my car waiting for me to come out and talk shit to me trying to race me.

I come out of work tonight and some civic lowered with rice tails is parked next to me. So when I walk out I kinda look over my car and get in then the kid rolls down his window and is like lets race. So im like WTF I tell him quarter is for little girls its to easy them he procedes to tell me hondas are the best on the quarter because they are so light then he goes on and on about D series. Well to make this long ass story short I ignore him after a min or two and leave well he follows me on the highway and procedes to ride my ass so I break check him and take off and leave his ass well I get on another highway to head home and he tried to follow me so I nail it on the onramp which is like a bend right then 90 left and I never saw him agen.

Someone please tell me why everybody loves the quarter mile so much. Please ease my mind im begging.

end rant

its just to brag about who can accelerate fastest for the most part. and who can do it without fucking up a shift. i think running the 1/4 is a little more about the car then the drivers skill as compared to auto-x or running on a road course

that I am going to agree with. Because I can and have run down a STI on the time attack because the driver didnt know how to run the car. Then after the event I gave him some advice and when we were having free runs and he did what I told him he was killing my times. I just dont understand why kids who drive civics with a intake and catback exhaust that run 17 seconds 18 second sit here and talk all this shit about how they are so fast. I mean if you love it thats cool but dont go bugging and talking shit to people that you know you cant beat.

damn... thats bad...

I have people trying to race me in my civic... I just look at them and laugh. seriously... NOTHING on my car right now says "I want to race you". It's BONE stock. I have factory side markers and foglights. those are the only things I've added that you don't see on other 4-door civics. MY CAR ISN"T EVEN LOWERED YET! No fart can, nothing, and I still get shit like that. only in my case, it's usually cars that are 1000x faster than me. (civic's are slow. I know. lol)

I can't believe he followed you that far tho! and to be just sitting out by your car waiting for you... wtf?! seriously... I'd call the cops and report the car for stalking you! lol

That's pretty much right on, lol. The quarter mile is good for seeing how well your car runs as a complete package; engine, tranny, shift points, suspension, tires.....it's where you go to see how well you've really put your car together. It's a better indicator of how fast a car is than looking at a dyno chart.

I love it when people try to run me when I'm in my Civic too, taking off from a light, riding my ass then blowing by me and crap. I'm like "Congradulations, you're faster than a Civic." lmao. My Civic is bone stock, leave me alone. Though I did smoke a Corolla who was riding my ass earlier tonight, that was fun.

lol! seriously tho... they see a teenage guy behind the wheel of a import car and automatically thing I'm a street racer. Hell, I have people come up to me randomly that have "heard of me" first thing they ask, "so what do you have done to this car?"

me - "nothing.. she's bone stock"

them - "yeah right... seriously, what do you have?"

ect.. ect...

it goes on for about 5 minutes before I finally get across to them that the car IS stock!! and even then I don't think they believe me.... it was cool when I was 16/17, but it's been going on for 3 years... that's fucking annoying now!!

Yeah right dawg there's no such thing as a stock Si, you added VTEC right? I heard Si's are the easiest to add VTEC to.

dude. I'd put vtec on my civic too, but I heard you can't do it easily on the 4-doors.

but you are right tegsox, SI's are the easiest to add vtec too. thats why most of them have it.
