Don't know if this was already posted but there is some awesome racing here. Lots of stupid fast cars breaking records and a lot of insane crashes. I wasn't aware how far a lot of these cars had progressed since last seeing them, like the Speedfactory Civics for example. That damn Lightning is fast as hell as well as the full sheetmetal and interior Nova! Really entertaining racing going on there.

Some serious friggin cars there!

That L was awesome!

If you asked me before that what the fastest Lightning was running, I would hsve said mid to low 8s. Definitely never in my wildest dreams expected 6.80s and the same goes for Civics. I even watched Speedfactory run that Civic hatch at Pacific Raceways maybe 2 years ago and was blown away at the 188mph trap speed I witnessed. I dont follow any of the drag racing religiously so it was crazy and a pleasant surprise seeing how fast they are now. Seems like technology in motorsports is progressing at a much much faster rate these days.
