slicks are only a few hundred bucks away

yeah but I still have to buy rod bearings, cams, springs, retainers, a p&p, meth, and retune...drag radials will come after that stuff.
I don't doubt that some of those hondas are fast. there was a 90 civic with an ls swap no work done motor with 190,000 miles running 9.7. most hondas all motor or not are gutted no power steering no ac and all the other creature comforts that I am a fan of. But lets not wave our E dicks around lets just race....well next season. motor won't be in the car much longer...i hope.
