Explain Honda track cars. Explain 600hp K-series RSX's. Explain 500hp B-series Honda's. I've been in some of these cars where they are extremely quick in a straight line and perfectly at home on a track. Only thing FWD really sucks at is digs. Which is dominated by rwd land yachts that can't corner worth a damn.

Nigga only the gt convertable weighed even close to that. Hell a bare bones coupe weighs less than 3000lbs. And to be honest no foxbody is stock anymore.

>>14558216

Most of my car """"""friends""""""" are regular John Doe who watch Top Gear and want to race their shitbox, not knowing basic driving knowledges (understeer/oversteer, trailing braking etc...) and generally don't know a single shit of how cars work.

One of them is worshipping his shitbox like if it was a god machine.

I still have that one guy I play with online, who is not a retard and know pretty much a lot of things, because he likes to learn things reading magazines, but he has no money for the moment.

Sucks to be alone.

A decent turbo + bolt ons will make a K-series go into the 400's and 500's easy. 8th gen SI is about 2900lb stock without driver. Maybe take $10k for the whole setup, and considering you can pick up an 8th gen for about $10k you have a "professionally built race car" for about $20,000

QUARTER MILE 13.9 sec @ 100.1 mph
bench racing is fun. This car is probably fast enough for some high school shitheads.

I didn't see any real noticeable understeer, and I'm pretty sure he was left foot braking.

Plus he actually oversteered at 1:20
