Dude, those really crappy manual trans hatch back civics are born racers. Don't fret, you never could have stood up to him under 55.

I raced a civic a really crappy hatchback (man trans.) and to my surprise he kept up to me till the end. I was in "s" mode and i floored it.
Is this a regular thing and i just expected to much outta the 535. or is something seriously wrong with my car.

Assuming this is on the street, thats a worry. how many days is that you have held a licence for? 4 or 5
take it to the track and vent yourself there before u hurt yourself and maybe someone else.
You tell him MattyB. Joel, pull your head out of your arse.
Your behavior gives immaturity a bad name.

After about a mile, he was required to change into the left lane behind me as there was a car in the right lane. After i passed the car in the right lane i was slowed back down to the speed limit and the envoy floored it and blew past me (i didnt even twitch the gas pedal, as we were nearing a rather large town).Originally Posted by McWatters

Seriously dude, you just posted last week about getting your license!
You aren't off to a tremendous start in your driving career, and BTW, racing a Rice-Burner is demeaning to our cars.

just great, thats all he needs is encouragement from someone who should know better. you guys need some help. maybe gayle knows how to help u. perhaps a trip to the morgue to see what happens when it all goes wrong
considering he is pushing around 6 thousand pounds i wouldn't say he did bad

I was going a maximum of 60-65mph in a 55mph area, what could happen that wouldnt under normal driving conditions? The worst is that someone could change lanes in front of me, but that could happen even if i werent "racing," and the speed difference between "racing" and non-"racing" is negligible in this instance. If i could go out of control while driving in a straight line, i shouldnt be on the road in any case.
