Post FF Junk Vs. Mr's

I dont want to sound like i dislike honda's....well...actually, yeah i do.

Frankly...they're just good for nothing straightaway cars. I dont see many of those FF rubbish cars doing track. And frankly, they dont poise more potential than a oversized go-kart. I dont like civics, and i hate integras.

Let me see those ***s Race a 50-50 weight ratio, Rear Wheel drive machine on a track and see who wins. It's about attacking corners at lightning fast speeds, and true handeling. Not to see who can shift faster. For gods sake, give me a break. Those A-holes dont know the first thing about Heel n' toe. Bigots.

Sorry, had to vent. I hate it when they try to race my Mr on the street. It's a waste of time and gas. Not to mention a chance to win a big fat ticket. Get it through your heads morons, the street isnt a place to race...especially for you're cheesy Civics and Tegs.

i guess u've never seen an integra type r on the track....those things can really drive themselves.....u can't knock all hondas...theres alot of them that are built simply for track days...just because a few ricers out there.....shouldn't make us all honda haters....because they are just as much car enthusiasts as us toyota owners are.....

i get challenged all the time on the streets....most of the time i'll just ignore them and cruise at my own pace...but i do admit i give it to some of them once in a while.....

honda's aren't bad. they are just overestimated and overhyped. i would say that they are decent cars for the price. but most hondas that are running at Mr2 speed are costly to build or buy. look at it this way, an Mr2 turbo will run 14's stock. that's on par with the S2000 or a turbocharged teg with heavy engine work.

did u lose to a honda on the street? u sound irrate. don't worry about it. i saw a picture on the net of a handicapped kid running at the track and it read "Racing in a honda, even if you win, you're still retarded." haha.

There are quite a few impressive FF's, especially in rally. I can think of a bunch of FF's that outhandle some FR's. Dont be so closed minded.

You can discredit their racing and tuning potentials, but Civic's and Integras arent bad cars at all. In fact Integra's are great cars, and quite attractive.

And racing them isnt always a waste of gas and clean cut victory. The 2 runs a 14.7-14.9 stock. I've seen faster modified FF's, much faster actually. You never know what they're running.

Im glad you have mid-ship pride but theres a difference between pride and biggotry. Im quite ashamed that one of my MR2 brothers could be so closed minded, honestly keep your mind open about other peoples interest and hobbies.

^... that's a close one. You've got the 320hp and the turbo's. But then you have a mid-engine rwd v6.... that would take some serious thinking. I like my 'yotas though so I would probably take the supra.

Civics can't handle???

yah I suppose that's why lightly modified civic hatches win year after year in auto-X.

The EF(?not sure about civic codes) Hatch is one of the best handeling FWD cars ever produced along with the CRX...

And forget about the Integra Type R, that's one of the best handleing stock cars ever produced, FF, FR, or MR.

You sound like an ignorant ricer, the EF chassis considering it was designed in the mid 80s as econo platform is one fot eh best bang for the buck cars u can buy. FF cant handle? maybe the cant drift but with minor mods they certianly can handle. The DC2 Type R is faster round tsukuba circuit than the E46 M3, stock for stock. A true enthusiast appreciates everything whether it be FF, FR or MR or AWD

Aiya, I can see this getting out of hand. Keep it clean and nobody gets their feelings hurt.

Bubble back + DC2 Type-R helical LSD tranny + B18C5 + Coilovers + Rubber = Crazy Track Bitch.
MR2 + Rubber + Coilovers = Crazy Track Bitch.

The front driver requires more work, but its just as lethal.

As a side note, comparing a big heavy Bimmer to a nimble ITR is a bit of a mismatch.

A big heavy bimmer? the M3 was designed to be a beast, hence the 100+ hp advantage, and we all know it handles.
