One in a neutral color (white / black / gray) vs red or blue would work.
The things run, for sure.
And a 40k track weapon. Way more reasonable.

Performance wise, it's a great hot hatch. But the look......way too "flamboyant"
I guess Honda thinks all tuners are rice boys.
You spyin' on the fella?
HA HAAAAAAAAAAATreed!!
Haha sorry @tones_RS3
I dont for a second doubt it. Those times you reference are old and before a lot of work was done on that track.Has anybody called bullshit on Honda's claimed times? 7.43 is the same time as a 997 GT3 RS, C6 Z06 and 2 seconds off C6 ZR1 and 997 GT3.
I read in a forum that the Civic hit 166 mph on the straightaway, which is in league with a Carrera S, which is lighter, more aero, DCT, and has 100 more horsepower.
Honda must have been the same driving team that pushed the Demon to a 9.65.

Why would anyone call bullshit when there are videos of the run available?
The last TypeR ran it in 7:50, I don't see why 7:43.8 is hard to believe given the clear improvements and the super sticky tires they apparently used. The last Type R had a top speed of 170mph.
If those cars you quoted ran again today with a factory effort in perfect conditions they would all be faster. This is why I hate ring times.. They are often confusedNeither run was done in a production car. Which is why it is fishy that a 300 horse Civic is running with 911 turbos and C6zr1s

I don't think I could ever justify paying $37,000 for a Honda Civic!!!!
It's a 300whp car. The European version is conservatively rated at 316hp. The US cars are putting down 290-295hp at the wheels.
Besides the floating roll cage (and offsetting weight removed via rear seats and head unit) and the tires, what wasn't production about it?
Also, I imagine tire technology is also a big part of the difference between 10 year old ring times.
I didn’t know they were that strong, wow.
Definitely underrated by Honda it appears.
