    Accord at race track

    jlaccord89lxi sent me these pics to post on the board. It appears to be a little tired-looking Accord hustling around a race track

    all those ammature race cars like that look tired, but the motors are usually strong as hell. Of course, i guess you cant compare it since its behind a metro.....

    Maybe it's just me, but I hate looking at 3geez in that shape. : (

    That's got to be the cleanest living DX I've ever seen.

    Wow, that's absolutely amazing-that car does not look like it's 20 years old!

    it is actually a civic in front of him. Most of the cars in that class (thunder) are civics, they're just all stripped down. This guy's accord is pretty slow. Its an automatic so that doesn't help him out much. The non-funtional hood scoop is flimsy sheet metal and it bounces around all the time. Its meant for fun so i guess thats what you could say he's having. If you look close enough at the second picture, you can make out the Chevrolet bowtie he's got painted on the trunk lid

    Thanks again 87accordlxi for posting those for me.

    It looks like there is a red 3G behind the yellow one. That could be a 4G but I doubt it.

    I was talking about the car with the white front end. On closer examination it does look like a civic, but if you dont look close enough it really looks like a metro.

    either way it looks fun as hell.

    MAN are you calling me a hick!!! That is just one of the races. The main features are always the Nascar type cars. But they don't have as much fun as the little guys.

    if you mean the picture with the 3g on the track, then the car behind it is actually an old regal, or some other olds or buick, i've never walked up to it and taken a close look. If you mean the second picture, it's just another civic.

    yeah man, i agree with you, at first glance it does look like a metro, but they have smaller rear side windows (i think). There is one firefly that races, but the little "3-bangers" don't do too well. At least even an old civic has some prestige in its name.
