13s has never been fast?...STOCK NSXs, Z32 TTs, FD3S, Supra MKIV TTs, Vette C5s and older, BMW M3s prior to E92s, even Ferrari F360s...all hit 13s...and they were CONSIDERED fast for their era.

I'm not trying to start a flame war. I don't like ricers neither because they're posers. But well built Hondas are fast for what they are.

The "sleeper" is what shocked/embarrassed the smug challenger.
Great. You're in the wrong place to defend your straight piped civic. Plus, you're focusing on ETs to determine "fast". I'll bet you lunch evey one of those stock cars traps noticeably higher than some fwd crapbox.
