Went out to an empty street close to the school that had no cops...street was about a mile and a half long. Was just me, a friend, and like 15 mexicans lol. Some guy in a Celica wanted to run, so we lined up. I jumped him off the line and kept pulling. My car is slow and heavy, so I only pulled about a car and a half on him.

Second race was against an orange 93 Civic. He had an intake, exhaust, bodykit, spoiler, some other dumb shit like APC decals. He was a cool dude though. I jumped him off the line but we stayed even until about 50 and I started slowly walking him, and shut it down at 90.

Third race was against an Accord. We lined up and he jumped me off the line, shifting into 2nd I was neck and neck with him. Shift into 3rd and he gains a little, then I reel the bitch out all the way to redline, shift into 4th, and get back even with him. He shut down at 90 at a tie.

The Accord was faster than I had thought, though the only thing he had was an intake. He raced a newer Celica and the same 93 Civic I raced and beat them by a couple of cars.

Is your ESI stock? Some of the accords come with H23 engines and if you drop an H22 (prelude engine) they can be pretty quick.

It's not stock, but it may as well be. I have an eBay intake and cat-back exhaust.

The Accord is the one with the F22. I checked some Honda website and it said that the engine only has 125hp, which with his intake MIGHT reach 130hp...compared to my car which should be close to 150. His is a four door, so I don't think I weight too much more than him. I dono why he kept up so well.

good kills.the accords didn't come with an H series engine,but they were swapable.I beat all the accords i ever raced in my 2gnt,add an afx/underdrive pulley and open her up.celica gt's were pretty even,but gt-s pulled on me all the time,civics,well i never lost to a d-series engine,but i just never went against a heavyly modded one either.so,you win some you loose some.peace out.
