That was the other car, not ours.

The car is currently all setup for SFWD. Has all the necessary requirements for this. Actually, now that I think about it this pass was the finals at the last Atco event.

The point is to do it with it. I know we can put the car on a diet and make 9's but that is not what our customer wants.

He is a NHRA certified driver Felix Gato Medina is the tuner, he has the 4th fastest FWD turbo honda in the united states. Just needs a couple more passes and to stay intact.

The STOCK 1995 Civic Si hatchback weighs 2700lbs. Remember, this has a fully motorized sunroof and all. Factor in leather interior, air bags, chromoly rolly cage, parachute and the list goes on.

Also, its B-Series, which weighs more than a D. So to say you doubt it, I doubt it ;)

We can put it on the scale if you want next time were at atco.

Given I know nothing about civics but:

Isn't that unusually heavy for one of these things (including added weight of cage and motor setup)?

It seems like this car has a lot of room for cutting some weight, especially in windshield and windows alone, which will get this thing in the 9's without a problem.

EDIT: Just read two subs and leather interior, WOW. Get gone rid of it.

Customer doesn't want that. He wants to just run 9's as is. She has more than enough power and tire to do it.
