He showed up with stock axles and was afraid slicks would break everything..civic driver cried and was taken to hospital after the race..civic drivers dad told him he would buy car back or buy him a Z06 if he could get his car back.. A bunch of kids showed up to race real racers and were made fools out of
I remember in high school seeing this episode hoping the import would show out but he showed up on some heavy ass Si wheels and street tires for some reason.
😂😂😂😂😂 He agreed to it, pulled the "i dont have 2nd gear, I need the bottle" trick. It's boosted 8cylinder with nitrous vs boosted 4 cylinder no nitrous with only 2. Of course hes gonna lose. I would have said "if you guys want the car that bad, just take it!"
@@BumarAssassin i think the car making close to 600 cause when he put the slicks on it was moving but the granny shifting and not having the slicks on from the beginning was wrong hopefully he grew up and learned how to properly shift a trans
No way that Honda has 600hp. He didn't start with slicks because they cause Honda transmissions to go out quick. I use to run in nopi nationals and threw trans all the time. Then I grew up and quit driving Honda's (imports). The kid looked like it was his first time on a track.
Exactly that cracked me up..typical import guy claiming their Honda faster than anything but they always ask for 10 or more lengths and cry about only having 4 cylinders..lol
I doubt it's even that high tbh. I've seen stock 1,5 liters not even hit 200 hp even with 15 lbs of boost and a bit of an octane booster. 300 max assuming they were actually getting boost.
I knew one of the civic guys. It was rigged. Trans am was 10.5 off bottle. Civic was 10.3 on slicks and full boost. He wasn't allowed to run slicks and the show wanted it turned down. They got his front bumper as a trophy and paid him 300 fir the car.
Imports do beat domestics here and there under certain conditions. However more often a import just isn't gonna do it. The lack of torque struggles on track. HP doesn't get ya down a track. Torque does.
I think it is more I have very little low end torque . The acceleration isn't there but once they are moving and get on the power band they will keep up or be faster.
If torque was as important as you claim, why doesn't a 400hp diesel blow the doors off a 400hp gas truck? A lack of torque is easily made up for with gearing. Anybody that claims torque is more important than horsepower in a drag race has no idea what they're talking about
@@jridenour31 there is more than just torque to consider. Its just one big piece of the puzzle. Hp, Weight, gearing, rpms, tire size. All matter. If a 3000 pound 400hp v8 races against a 1500 pound 400hp Honda, the v8 will normally have more torque and probably beat the Honda in 1/8 mile, 1/4 mile that Honda will probably be in front. Diesels weigh a lot so for drag racing they will always seem slow for Thier power but make the same HP has motor truck weigh the same and it will be a huge anchor.
Because it's not nearly as quick (even on slicks) as some of these comments are saying. pretty much all tracks require a 5 point harness when your car is capable of exceeding a 11.99 or better time. Unless someone thinks this was the first time this car ever saw a track, and only raced on the street then it's obvious this isn't a 10 or 9 second capable car like some comments are suggesting.
Having somebody cut their wires cause your scared is low, I mean you looked over the car, if it had another bottle, you'd know. Next time bring something that can keep up
20 cars Wth who asks for 20 cars!!! Might as well as put him at the finish line 2 inches behind the line!! Keep your car at home asking for 20 and learn how to drive!!! That’s punk racing!! Keep them Hondas in the garage god bless USA made cars! Need to put cameras in cars that’s how I would do if I ran the show see who is faking and who is not!!!
Civic:we need a 50 car length start.
Trans am:stop granny shifting!
But that’s how I drive 😂😂
Does it get good gas mileage 🤣
@@johnstout25 i fucking cried
That kid in that civic couldn’t drive a greasy stick up a goats azz lol
@@54raceman lol not even half way up
" He needs to remove 3 pistons, give me an 1/8th mile lead and drive from the trunk "
lol drive from the trunk
Honda guy in last race: “we will do two car lengths and you get the bottle”.
Firebird guy: “Say no more thanks for the Civic!”
Civic:I need a 1/4mile head start.
And he still would’ve about got pulled around lol
Without boost those 4 cylinders have nothing, with boost, thier capable monsters.
That civic needed a driver mod 😂😂 why would u not start with slicks on a track 🤦♂️
You u
Because civic transmissions might as well be made of glass there so fragile
He showed up with stock axles and was afraid slicks would break everything..civic driver cried and was taken to hospital after the race..civic drivers dad told him he would buy car back or buy him a Z06 if he could get his car back..
A bunch of kids showed up to race real racers and were made fools out of
I bet when the Honda was testing for this race. He and his team was like this bih is fast man. We bout to put imports on the map lol 😆
😂😂😂😂😂
I'd be embarrassed to ask for 20 lengths. Sad AF 😂
Well he’s a honda guy and we all know not much embarrasses them
let me start 20 feet from the finish line and you cant use nitrous - Honda boy
“We need 20 lengths!” - said with a straight face.
And then sighed and complained about 10 🤣🤣
He has a civic it’s not the first time he’s asked that.
Remove 2 of your cars wheels take all your spark plugs out and give me 100 cars and it's a race 😂😂😂
Pretty much an no gas
Rule number 1 when racing on Pinks:
NEVER believe your opponent!
I would show up with a funny car and ask 5 cars
@@bigdavedayday1581 pathetic
No way that bottles coming back in last race. 2nd gear my ass. He wants bottle, we ask for 10. Last race should have been boost for boost heads up.
20 lengths might as well just give him the race
Rich: What are you looking for?
Trans Am: Run what you brung let’s get the first one done.
Civic: I need the title to the Trans Am
Rich grenaded the negotiation with the last suggestion. Absolutely ended the Honda 🤣
I remember in high school seeing this episode hoping the import would show out but he showed up on some heavy ass Si wheels and street tires for some reason.
He was trying to hustle dude and he got out hustled
Spinnin' ain't winnin' LOL
There is NO replacement for displacement... 4 cylinders are no match for 8... Unless the v8 was driving in reverse 😂...
Not true I can tell you now I know a few four bangers that would whip the dog shit out of lots and lots of V8s😊
Imagine getting such a huge head start and actually being excited to win like that lmfao what a joke
That hose wasnt cut by anyone because its not a knife cut, it looks to have been pinched or smashed, and you can easily see that
Dude had absolutely no idea how to drive that civic
19.03 the moment when Rich Christensen told that kid you lost your car like a man.
😂😂😂😂😂
He agreed to it, pulled the "i dont have 2nd gear, I need the bottle" trick. It's boosted 8cylinder with nitrous vs boosted 4 cylinder no nitrous with only 2. Of course hes gonna lose.
I would have said "if you guys want the car that bad, just take it!"
Dude says mid 10 but yet he brings his 13 sec car to race it cmon now. The civic driver thinks his street tires will perform better lmao 🤣
Needs a 2 step. Bros just rev banging it and not dumping it. Why didn’t he put slicks on he’s crazy
For all import owners , this is not our guy for representation
Yea not a honda fan but I've seen actually fast ones before that made me appreciate their build💯
Oh yes it is!
Definitely agreed
Yeah this is your people
Slowest civic I ever seen
in case you never noticed he was never launching the car right and he didn’t put the slicks on till the last race
Bruhh meee tooo
It gets good gas mileage though🤣
Lmaoo especially considering it’s supposedly 600+ horsepower. Should be flying
@@BumarAssassin i think the car making close to 600 cause when he put the slicks on it was moving but the granny shifting and not having the slicks on from the beginning was wrong hopefully he grew up and learned how to properly shift a trans
Bro got taken to gapplebees😂
Sometimes I wonder how some people actually thought appearing on this show was a good idea.
Never gets old seeing these imports lose
No way that Honda has 600hp. He didn't start with slicks because they cause Honda transmissions to go out quick. I use to run in nopi nationals and threw trans all the time. Then I grew up and quit driving Honda's (imports). The kid looked like it was his first time on a track.
The firebird out hustled that civic..when he was told the firebird lost second gear he panicked and said "I lost 3rd"
Exactly that cracked me up..typical import guy claiming their Honda faster than anything but they always ask for 10 or more lengths and cry about only having 4
cylinders..lol
He has experts In his show that lose every race. Lol.
Charles won his race, wooly mammoth
thats pitiful 20 length 😂🤣
21:43 does it give good gas mileage 😂😂
Honda: sleeved pistons, huh???
It's sleeved and it has aftermarket pistons lol
“Represented imports” so they need a head start? Got it 😂
19:35 You just Represented Imports! 20:35 (1 minute later....) You just Disappointed Imports!
Asking for Anything more than a 2 car headstart is Absolutely Absurd! If you need more you already Lost
These kids don't learn that imports aren't worth Adam against a powerful domestic
You legit sound dumb af.
You bring a race car with no racing Slick's 😂😂😂😂
with how slow that civic is, you shouldnt even need to put your helmet on
17:51 in the description it said he had a powerglide though
Says trans brake th400 in the description
Honda driver looked like he was about to cry
Was thinking before the last race race they should give the Honda 5 lengths. Would have been a lot closer I knew once they said 2 cars it was over.
me when I get into the barber chair: 4:51
"Import vs domestic, this is what people came to see!"
If it was that simple, run what ya brung, heads up, everytime.
20 links? Might as well just started at the finish line….
600hp on stock tires in a fwd car. What are you trying to do win a burnout contest.
He'd lose that too
If they had slicks why did they try to race on street tires? Jeesus
You sure they didn't mix the hp numbers with the cc of the injectors 625cc but only 350 hp.
I doubt it's even that high tbh. I've seen stock 1,5 liters not even hit 200 hp even with 15 lbs of boost and a bit of an octane booster.
300 max assuming they were actually getting boost.
Twenty cars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is 320 ft headstart... that is almost half an eighth mile
Yeah almost 1/16th of a mile
Only Import Driver's, would aggressively low Five 👋 a stranger, after a 12 car lead win! 🤦🏼 16:31
What’s crazy is that civic is decently well built it’s the driver
The car still had a procharger so it was never on motor 😂
Muscle will forever be better than imports weedeater motors
Lol "they cut the line" you can clearly see it blew a hole in it, unless someone meticulously cut a jagged line in it 😂😂
Tubby should have got a rent a racer 😂
They needed to not lie about having second gear when I heard all the gears shift going down the track at that last race
And they needed to not lie about not having third
Hard tires and no lsd. You never had him you never had your car!
Famous words of Dwight from Fast and Furious 😂😂
Im gonna need a 10 mississippi head start and you can only put wheels on the left side of your car
And the moral of the story; go fast parts makes every car faster not just imports😉👍
Best man and Sportsmanship won !!! 😀🇺🇸😀🇺🇸😀🇺🇸😀
As soon as I notice sandbagging, you can count on it that i'll be handing over my car with a blown engine.
Honda needs a driver mod ... that dude should be on slicks ... popping the Rev limiter ...when he leaves
Civic needs to start at finish line
I knew one of the civic guys. It was rigged.
Trans am was 10.5 off bottle. Civic was 10.3 on slicks and full boost. He wasn't allowed to run slicks and the show wanted it turned down. They got his front bumper as a trophy and paid him 300 fir the car.
Why tf would u run on street tires and you have slicks lol
Because hes never launched on slicks yet or his axles may not be able to fully handle them.
@@minimanadam that's why he should've spent money on that before bumpers and fenders🤣💯
Civic makes 600 HP my ass. 😂 That team embarrassed themselves, everyone of them. Buncha clowns.
Why didn’t the import guys put the slicks on from the start
THIS IS WHERE "STREET OUTLAWS ", STARTED.
uncle bens needs a driver mod
sandbagging that bad should be an instant disqualification losing your car
We brought a front wheel crap car and now I want you to make everything possible so I can get your car because I have bad choices in life..
Those little rice rangers set imports back 20 lengths, um....years...20 years.
Am I the only one that noticed that line was NOT new? It was dry rotted for sure, and definitely not new.
Right if they just put that line on it must’ve rode around in the back of the truck for a couple years before they installed it
Bro brought a stock civic🤣
14:24 🤣🤣🤣
Noooooo. Monicaaaaaaaaaa
That civic makes 250 tops. I don't even think the bird makes more than 450
20 lengths 😂😂😂
Real racer vs boy racer
Does it get good gas mileage hahahaha
These kids watched Fast and Furious and tried it in real life hahahahaha. Take that shit box straight to the junkyard lol. DETROIT!! 👹
That driver in the civic is pathetic
Slicks why weren’t they used for the first two races ??
They knew they weren’t gonna make all 5 possible passes on one stock honda transmission with slicks
Grs and type r transmission are strong.. i ran plenty of passes on stock transmission and slicks and high hp.
Why would you pull up to a drag strip on street tires when you have slicks in your trailer

Honda was nice he just didn't know how to race it
Can you imagine in Nhra and John force says I need a head start! Run what ya brung!
Put the Firebird on the moon! C'mon what is this? The bs is unbelievable
Street tires?? Kid just wanted to lose
I had a 95 trans am. Same color. And I miss it
