NOS'd Civic
To my Bay Area peeps, watch out for a plain looking grey 95 civic coupe. This car smoked me like I was standing still. I tried running him at a light and he just launched on me and was gone. Then I tried a rolling start (giving my S a huge advantage). Once I was in VTEC I was quickly edging him out, until he had a burst (a HUMONGOUS a$$ burst) of speed and got me by 5 car lenghts. One of my friends told me that he has a GSR engine and squeezing a 50 shot of NOS. I'm completely convinced that he squeezed on me when we were running, since VTEC never gives a crazy shot of power like that. I have never been beaten by a B18 transplant that bad ever. Oh well...time to boost the S with Comptech 
. By the way, he has a RIP Mike Tom sticker (Frisco people should know what this means). Latez!

I love getting flamed for this but I`ve seen many Civics that handle much better then s2k`s
If he pulled from you that hard he was ruiing more then a 50 shot.

for some reason, I do not count NOS as being a credible power upgrade to a car. When the bottle runs out, game over. that's like an athelete that is junked up on steroids and power producing injections going up against someone who can apply the slightly less power indefinetly, not just for 5-6 minutes of max out performance. I agree with who ever said "at the end of the day, he is still driving a civic"; this coming from someone who's car is not quite as fast as a civic EX 
Next time you meet him on the road, just say " hey, look up and tell me what you see."

Trip though, it doesn't matter what you got...All that matters is winning. For me, winning will not ever include NOS (I know I won't be able to control the urge to up the shot). BUT, that doesn't mean that I won't go forced induction. I'm just waiting to get enough money to go supercharged. There are waaaay too many fast Hondas in San Francisco, so I already know that I'll probably get beat. Either way I still know I'm driving a MUCH better car then theirs. Let's see them try to put their top down
