Silly ricer speed is not for kids

This may seem lame but currently am having a pissing match with this guy on YouTube who thinks his 180whp Honda CRX can beat a GTP...... -_- just....no... He says the GTP is slow and that he beat a modded GTP, seriously? Has this ricer like the Vtec get to his head?
 


If he doesn't believe you then tell him to get some numbers to compare with. Real ones too, not ones that he pulled out of his @ss. Get some yourself too, and be prepared to show him where you got them....getting the same numbers in more than one place wouldn't be a bad idea either.
People can have battles with words all day but factual numbers are where the truth lies.

-Edit-
Just looked the specs of those up on wiki and wow....yea, a 1.6L I4 with 108HP. Even with the EU version it's still only 150 out of a 1.6L I4.
If hes getting 180 to the wheels he's gotta be heavily modded and then some.

No, thats 1/4. A 180hp CRX has a power to weight ratio of 180/2100=.0857. A modded GTP lets say makes 240hp. 240/3500= .0686. Its simple physics. That Civic would beat a lot of cars.
 


Easily. Honda swaps are crazy easy. Hell just swapping a B18C from an Integra Type R will put it around 160 whp with no other mods. Throw some mods at it like cams, header, etc and its easily at 180whp.
 
I could shut the guy up very easily with this video...

If thats not his car, that video doesn't mean sh!t.

Get over it kid, his car is faster than yours. Whining about it over the internet and trying to find videos of other cars beating other cars isn't proving anything.

Not to mention if that GTP isn't YOUR car it doesn't mean sh*t. The guy that does own that GTP is a member here I believe.

Unfortunately, guy.

Even a lightly modded GTP/Regal GS is just keeping up with current grocery getters. 250whp is no longer in just a sports car's world.

I had to make my Regal technically Illegal to drive in this country just to keep up with current V6/Turbo I4 family sedans. Sad huh.
