~04 Echo:
1.5 liter VVTI I4. 108 HP 105 ft/lbs torque...
2035 lbs

~04 Civic (specs from EX, since he said it was a VTEC, unless it's an SI which would be no contest at all):
1.6 liter VTEC I4. 127 HP, 114 ft/lbs torque...
2597 lbs
2000< civics have 2513 lbs or so...

I really dont see where this kids gets off saying echoes run circles around civics...Theres only a slight weight difference??! :WTF:

follow-up

man, this sucks. he pooed out, no show. i was all ready, had my subs out, spare tire out, tire pressure down. and he didn't show, oh well, shows that some people are actually scared of the echo.

no, what really happened was he got in trouble the day we were going to race, and got suspended from school. he dont wanna get in anymore trouble, so hes not gonna race for right now.
sounds to me like two 16 yr olds....:thinking:
