We poke fun, but that "little Honda" made 345fwhp on 18psi running pump gas. It also weighs about 2200lbs. He trapped at 114mph but had shifting issues so the ET was 14.0. First and only run at the track before he sold the car. I did beat him though.

Yeah I know those rice rockets can fool you. Glad you spanked him.

If it makes you a bad person we'll blame it on the Evil Twin!

Default I was going to come here today and remove it

I put that picture of my daughter on yesterday and fully expected to see nothing or objections, with the idea of removing it today because it wasn't C5 related and putting a picture of my car. With the kind remarks and no negatives. I think Ill leave it. Thank you for the kind words.
