Mulv, Madik,
This is starting to be a bucket of worms and it was also my immediate response. Mulv, said "he was talking to the wrong audience." We all insert our own images of the Cobra and Accura in this mental race image. The statement does allow you to insert any car and configuration. The Spec racer is limited to 302 inches I think, and do not have a clue what limits would be on your 135 HP Honda but guess the HP to weight in this case is a little lopsided, am I right? You said your laps were 10 + seconds better than the cobras. As a known HP track how would your Honda do agianst the average big inch small block stroker to close that gap? Think this is a fair question unless your Honda is STOCK configuration as the spec racer would be clost to a stock SB cobra.
Madik, I feel the same way but have had a couple of rice grinders surprise me with how quick they are and you never know if running tons of boost and on the bottle too. I have not been embarrassed yet but scared a few times for sure. What is the bumper sticker.... I would rather push my Ford than drive a Chevy. I run a vette suspension and Dart gen 6 here but do offer Ford engine adapters and appreciate the loyalties we all have. Remember even Mulv said
" On the other hand I doubt that the Hondas will elicit the nostalgia of the Cobra and that is what we all own them for... "
