This was a fun one. On my way home from work today a hot boi in his BRZ pulled up to me at a red light. It seems like most guys in a BRZ/T86/FRS have learned to leave even lightly modified Civics alone. This guy didn’t have such reservations. He revved up at me and it was on.
My Civic Hatchback: Engine mods are only a cold air intake and ignition coils. I’m on lighter wheels, but tires are stock.
The BRZ: Looked pretty much stock to me.
Result: I probably wouldn’t be here talking about it if I didn’t win haha. I got him by about half a car length before having to back off due to traffic. We were around 65-70 mph at this time. The guy turned out to be a good sport about it and rolled his window down to give me a little clap and a smile. It’s nice to see that with mild upgrades the Civics can consistently outperform the entry level sports cars out there. Now I wonder what it would have been like if I got a tune ?
