[Music]
for this final episode of modified this
season we wanted to go out with a bang
and do something that nobody's ever done
before we're on a three-mile runway with
eight of the fastest Honda Civics in the
US that are competing and a one-time
quarter-mile drag race
this is heads-up drag racing first guy
across the finish line wins no redos no
do-overs no crybabies
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
so all the cars got in last night and
they're looking sick yeah there's a lot
of high horsepower cars here so let's go
check them out
[Music]
we've got ohm in it is 94 Civic
hatchback this engine is super clean and
the turbo is a monster gary is a fun
looking 95 civic with the turbo although
it looks almost stock this hatchback has
more than enough power to compete
Alex's 93 Civic is definitely a sleeper
no turbo but the high rev limit should
help give him the advantage he needs to
get out in front Xavier from Haan data
brought a solid competitor with 300
foot-pounds of torque his Civic is sure
to get off the line quick Ricky's 93
Civic is probably the biggest sleeper
here it looks stock but it packs a punch
with its all-wheel-drive conversion this
thing looks sick coming in is one of the
fastest civics in the world
Ulysses car is all custom and all pro
there are very few cars that can keep up
except for his brother Wilson who has a
2000 Civic that can throw it on over a
thousand horsepower and compete right
alongside his brother
this is our second na setup in the
lineup while though tucks not telling us
his horsepower
I think he should can be well against
all the turbo civics
all carbon fiber front yeah and a super
clean engine bay things looking good
yeah that's definitely one of my
favorites this is awesome - super
sleeper probably tons of horsepower
looks garage belt yeah I like that I
like that too
yeah Jeff and I might not be racing
today but that doesn't mean we still
can't get a little friendly competition
going after all these are the fastest
civics in the world and they're ready to
throw down but before we make any
predictions or pics let's see some more
insight from our drivers and what they
brought for today's race Xavier here
he's got a 92 DX I see a huge inner core
and obviously a turbo tell us about the
car how much battery this car has got a
99 acura integra type-r engine built
it's got a 62 millimeter turbo that
makes around 700 horsepower what's the
fastest time you've ever read lamb 4
days I 155 is offensive awesome looks
like you guys did a good job there oh
yeah I like that you guys kind of did
all this but everything fits tight this
is pretty much literally like a street
car yeah a lot of our customers you know
their entry level so this is what you'll
see a lot of our customers run yeah
come back here he's got a chute right
he's got a cheetah
I feel like he's just telling us nines
just to make be real humble big turbo
big wheels quality roll cage big-time
big-time parachute I like you yeah
this Civic is pretty crazy this is the
only all-wheel drive competitor among us
yeah this thing's got a custom all wheel
drive conversion
it runs an Acura RSX k20 engine makes
roughly around 900 horsepower
what was your fastest quarter time this
cars been 80 Wow about 167 so it's
definitely one of the faster cars offer
a 67 Miller bow
they said it's a 2-liter engine does
that say got oh yeah this is in cat yeah
not gonna get it this thing is just bone
stock in here you got an air fuel ratio
and a steering wheel that's it this one
is definitely my pick for who I think is
gonna win it looks totally stock from
the outside it's the only car that runs
the same size tires front and back but I
just think that all the guy was like I
can't not traction speed that's that's a
game plan we got Alex here in his 93
civic I just see a crazy intake I heard
this thing's na how much power does this
thing have right now the mostest mate is
a 430 on our dyno yet okay natural
aspirated no nitrous no turbo just all
motor yeah that definitely phased me I
thought that was leading up to a huge
Trevor - I definitely did but since
you're n/a what's your rev limit it we
take it up to like ten thousand eight
hundred Wow so I mean there's a lot of
turbo cars out here how do you think
you're gonna do with the NA setup in my
opinion I don't think it's like the
power is getting it to the ground and
like how they say is spinning ain't
winning so we're here I feel like this
is my pick I just like the whole setup
you know I'm super into the ITB Zen a
stuff like that so can you stick your
head in there don't start the car you
know that he is my pick okay you going
down all right go put your head in there
[Music]
although we're on this awesome
three-mile runway it's definitely
different from your average drag strip
they've got little grooves in here and
the macadam is definitely different from
a normal drag strip these guys have a
lot of work to do to get the tires and
horsepower correct to get that perfect
launch to win this quarter mile race
horsepower you know there's difference
between 450 and 1200 but ones na ones
turbo one could have a crappy launch and
have tons of turbo lag or the NA one
could just take off like a bat and win
the race these guys are a little bit
worried about the crosswinds we just
have some rain the wind really affects
these guys because they're going so fast
and they're losing traction in the front
the back is so light that all that
combined with a little bit of a
crosswind can really make them lose
control and the cars don't have a lot of
steering either so we're kind of just
waiting it out letting everybody get
ready
unfortunately for our boy Wilson he
broke third gear this morning and is
gonna have to sit today out yeah it's a
huge bummer
I mean 1,100 horsepower these sized
tires and the type of surface were
racing on sometimes aftermarket
transmissions can't hold up to that type
of power that's right well these guys
are about to hit the start line so let's
go check it out let's do it
[Music]
this is heads up drag racing seven cars
at once
nobody does it guys are lining up
there's some tons of pressure autumn
they only got one shot at this if they
dump the light
they're disqualified if they screw up
they lose this is gonna be intense
drivers ready
and
three
go
Oh
Rickie's just crushed everyone my guy
Alex came second Jaffe down there how'd
it go buddy it's gonna be pissed
so the NA car came in second Ricky came
in first and Omid came in third pretty
interesting to have the NA car there so
pretty cool
Alex came in second with 400 horsepower
that just shows you that like it's not
about horsepower setup and driver
capabilities let's go congratulate Ricky
[Music]
we're here with Ricky winner of our
world's greatest drag race tell me what
was going through your mind you know we
came here with one intention we wanted
to win we did just that
come down the track from A to B without
any issues and you know that was all she
wrote
definitely I mean you smoked everyone
off the line yeah we definitely had a
little bit of an advantage you know we
were kind of worried about the surface
when we initially got here but after
making a couple test passes we knew like
yeah we can we can let it eat and it's
gonna take whatever we throw at it well
since you're the winner no way open the
box my friend
oh no way yeah dude you get to take this
thing home oh my god yeah dude go check
it out man thank you good work yeah dude
killer job you definitely deserve it you
guys are the best I honestly don't even
know what to say we're gonna tell you a
couple things about this car oh yeah
we've been working on this 2017 Honda
Civic all season we first started out
with a Honda out of flash Pro upgrade to
the ECU also added a AEM cold air intake
a Grady intercooler and a Grady full
catback exhaust we finish it off with
some raised wheels extreme contact sport
tires by Continental and Hondo is cool
enough to throw in their floor mats
new rotors and roof wing it's got some
upgraded power so let's go take a first
spin
ready thank you guys yeah no problems I
think you you deserve I called back
shadi
[Music]
after seeing Ricki beat everybody in
today's insane competition it was so
cool to pass on the keys to our very own
project Civic experiencing the world's
fastest civics battle it out and a
quarter-mile drag was wild these guys
trying to push their pedals through the
floors of their cars fighting for our
first-place trophy they had no clue they
could win it's been great driving the
country and checking out competitions
like formula G
top Suites shootout
and rallycross these are some of the
biggest tuner events in the country
seeing the fans meeting the enthusiasts
real right now and getting to compete
against Jeff was a blast and a perfect
way to spend the Sun the board rode it
is board it is not stroked it is a stock
stroke in there there's no way it could
be board it has 1,100 horsepower could
be things pretty excited not poured joke
no pun intended
