Definitely didn't run 7s though. LOL
haha, yeah... the cars that run 7's are 1800+hp... with fwd you really need that top end to make the 7 second run since they can't launch as hard. but I really think a 8-9 second civic can survive drag week, and it'd be awesome to see..

We always used drag radials, so our 60' and 330' times weren't stellar, but we sure did trap a lot of MPH.
Even our 300whp Civic did 12.1 @ 116 with a 2.1 60' LOL. My goal was to run 11s with that setup, but I just couldn't peddle the launch well enough.

Anyway, it would be cool to see a Civic running those times and cruising along with all those 1000hp monsters.
