I just don't get challenged in this car...and it's just as well, cuz I'd snicker and resume cruising smoothly down the boulevard and back roads.
Even if I got in a weird mood and wanted to risk it on public streets, chances are I have my wife and kid ("kids" as of next Monday 8/20
) with me anyway.
After you've done it safely on a track (autocrossing in my LGT over at Texas Motor Speedway & hitting the oval on my Harley) it makes the street stuff seem even less desirable.

you beat a very poor driver lol you'd never beat a bone stock N/A tc with anyone that could launch & shift.
there's no excuse for a stock tc to not have atleast 4 leingths on you down a 1/4 mile drag. in the case of a tc, they'd outrun you till you hit about 130, then you'd reel them back in & overtake b/c of their low limited top speed.
the civic si would be a rediculous race. they're low 15 second cars stock with mediocure drivers, real drivers put them into high 14's, and they can do > 140mph while ES's are low 16 second cars & can't run 140 stock.
that would be a dumb race to put money on the ES.

he wasn't racing... what's done to your accord? enough n2o to put it to the moon? stock accords from that generation are 17 second cars. abysmal times.
the hard limiter is 137 on a 1994...
