Yeah so about 40min ago I'm driving down 92nd and come to a red light and stop right on the line, for some reason it sounded fun. A few seconds later a dropped, pasty, off white crx pulls up next to me right on the line, looking like hes gonna race me. I was thinkin "hey....I beat my girlfriend.....racing a crx should be fun!" Light turns green and we pop of the line, and for a whole half a second he was actually keeping up with me lol. Well after that brief moment in space and time I pulled away fast and left him behind. Good times.

Watch out with the whipping on helpless, worn-out, crapbox Rexes... for one day, you'll pull alongside what appears to be a helpless, worn-out crapbox-- because that's what it looks like, complete with crappy steel wheels-- but the guy has a B18c5 under the hood and he'll eat you for lunch and spit out what's left over.
We're messy with them in SoCal. A guy with the rattiest half-primer/half-white '88 CRX pushing 200hp from JDM-land lives round the way from me, and a guy with what can only be classified as a "POS", early/mid-'90s Accord down the block has that F22 block boosted all to hell. Beats the snot out of whatever happens to be in the lane next to him.
I wouldn't drive either car-- they look like they were bought with leftover beer money. But they're fast enough. These are the type of guys putting $7k worth of K20A into $1k worth of Civic hatch. 220hp and 2100lbs. Do the math.
The tC is more tuxedo than tracksuit. Beating up on the 108hp DX Civics shows no sport. But curmudgeonly as I may be, it sure is fun when they try.

Few Mustangs are fast. I beat them frequently, however the latest crop of Cobras are pretty fast. Also, a good turbo'd Honda is very tough to beat from a roll, I've seen a couple that humble stock Supras. Nothing like power to weight.
