I personally have only lost to one Honda, That was when I was a modded stock cam ve, and lost to my buddies 236whp k-swapped hatch by literally a fender from 5mph 1st gear roll to 120, we were neck and neck to 115 then he started barely creeping.
And ive raced a crap ton of hondas.
Yeah well back in 03-05 there were not that many burtally fast hondas, most were just basic swaps or modded up single cams running 16's at best while my all motor was running 14.3@97mph consistent. Boosted single cams were having trouble running into the 14's, boost b-series would run right where I was, ah the FMU days. Usually resulted in them leaving a rod on the track on their Single cam slammers.
Yes times have changed and our cars are far outnumbered by civics and integras and so on. Just quantity. lol
