Truth!!! THANK YOU! LoL!

Would you please explain this to that 'domestic guy' that keeps trying to bench-race me on this site?!?!?

With a lightweight car/rims/tires, I'm G-O-N-E off a light, leaving the chump back there hooking up! Then, it's just a matter of catch-me-if-you-can, you know?

Given enough time and space they might be able to beat me (that's what they always say) but it's academic 'cause by then the race is over and I'm sitting at the next light waiting for them! And, I can do this all night long - run after run!

Makes a lot of ppl mad! Some guys even try to crash me, like it's a demolition derby or something - no joke!

Anyway, glad to see someone else understands this phenomena...

EDIT2 (Let's try this)

Show n' Tell

Here's a snappy, I took this afternoon, of my CiViC with the Si rims installed...



They look okay, I guess, but they're heavy, IMHO!

Listen to the people who fail. They know what they're talking about!
