A little harsh, but it's the truth.
Dude, there is also alot more to racing than how much hp and torque you can dyno.
If you cant get it to the wheels effectively then it doesn't matter. You need to get the jump at the line with a good launch. If you can make it through first and second without spinning, pedal third as soon as you let off the clutch then give full throttle without lifting to shift (if you're fast enough) then you might be able to walk his ass.
I race people N/A all the time. I have a busted rear motor mount, fucked up transmission, a cold air intake and a fart can. I dont bother people for the most part. They chase me down and follow me until there's room to race. I lose 8 times out of 10. Beating ricers does not count considering my moms crysler concorde is faster than their shitboxes.
Just try and work on technique. Knowing your enemy is fine but dont ask us like we know every car out there on the market.
Look up the factory specs on things like weight, weight distrobution, torque, factory clutch specs......anything that shows if you do (X) thing, you can win. This is the reason i walk over ricers all day long and why they dont count. One less cam, 1000lbs of body kit and audio, exhaust that actually takes away power, and rims bigger than what the drivetrain can handle moving......... I know what their cars can do. Sit around, look tacky and be loud as fuck.... That's it.
What you can do is practice, learn what you can do to prep your car to give you an edge on the track and start racing. I mean real racing. Go to the track and get reaction times, 0-60 times, 1/8th mile times, 1/4 mile times......et, stuff like that. You can get a better tune with your car putting down actual numbers for you to look at than you would bullshitting on the street and making comparisons to nearly stock hondas....
You built a nice car (in my opinion anyway) but you've still got alot to learn. Goodnight sweetheart...yes its time to go...bum bum bum bum bum...good night sweetheart yes I am one little a$$hole......bum bum bum bum....
