Just as the OP name states.... Unexpected. I guess this means we will tons of "out of their league" civic runs against us. Now we got clean up the mess he made.

Seriously? And you didn't even tell him you started in 3rd gear (which is horrible for 30 mph). No joke, I'm sure there's a thread somewhere about how a Civic Si can whoop a modded G8 GT. I wouldn't have told this story to anyone. Major fail.

If it was a MPG race; you lost ! ;) lol

PS: My buddy has a bored & stroked 427 in his '99 Z28.
Went 1/4 mile racing at a drag track.
& he could not get traction until half track.
All the import tuners thought he was sporting...giving them a chance.
In truth he wasn't getting traction until half track with the late fall night weather temps...& the track wasn't prep'd either :(
They were loving it...he would catch them by the line like a freight train.
Running 12.x at 130+ mph lol

WTF..... is wrong with you? lol

I'll take quite a few cars from 30mph in 3rd! Lol

There are a few boosted civics by me talking smack. I told them they can get a head start, 6 lengths. I don't care. I'll run them down!

Please, never lose to a civic, unless it's fully built, making serious power.

The screen name Unexpected stems from a 340fwhp Volvo wagon I used to have. 13.x car that trapped over 11xmph. It was laughable at anything below 40-50mph.

The G8 has better off the line ability.
