Alot of work went in to both cars if the civics running slicks then I think it will win looks like a very sorted set up engine moved forward, tilted more and everything over the front axle.


Any more pics of the mk1 or the civic?

Just hope there are no pigeons on the strip when that cosworth roars past, by the looks on that phat turbo the poor fker would get sucked in!

we'll just have to wait and see at the next event, should be a good battle! at the last event there was a '91 civic, with a b18c turbo that ran 10.9 and an evo 4 with full trim that ran 10.0, 10.2,10.2 and yet another 10.2!!!
