I'll tell ya.....
I've always said as much as I love Hondas, if you want to go fast in a straight line why would you want to do it with a FWD Honda??? I mean, your fighting physics. It makes no sense, with all the Domestics out there it makes so much more sense to start with that platform. Leave the FWD cars for the road course and autocross.......IMO

haha, i could discuss this at length but i personally believe the biggest problem with FWD drag cars isn't the physics, it's the limited tire sizes. If you throw 205 width tires on the back of a Camaro SS it'd be a joke... and that's only 300hp. That's just my opinion though.
If you want to run 8's though, you need a v8/rwd. There are a few Honda's/FWD's in that territory but there just isn't enough knowledge floating around on how to do it... yet. |

A good deal on a 98 comaro with a LS1 is the only thing that could drag me away from my rex.

AWD, $$$$$, overweight, and unreliable. That's all i'm going to say.
The Supra is the only car really in that group that can be mentioned in the context of serious drag racing. |
