Do you think a brand new 197 HP Civic Si can beat a 914 with 3.0 6 conversion? My buddy who doesn't have a preference either way says that the civic will win hands down (he has a VW symbol tattooed on his calf too). Even if the 914-6 has 260 - 280 HP. What do you guys think?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) 914 with 280hp, weighing around...What? 2200lbs? Civic with 197hp, weighs?? Weighs what? Unless it's gutted it weight MORE. How can a heavier car with less horsepower do the spanking? Um... Traction? What else? Well, bottom line is PROOF is in the pudding. I would love to hear the actual results. |
