well since plus c hates me for speeding i still cant say i raced anyone yet
once i break in the motor i will take it to MOROSO and run the 1/4 and see what E.T. i get...maybe there might be some yaris guys out there...who knows,but with this small HP we have on the FIT it will be hard to find competitors on the streets, but i dont street race anymore...the risk of getting caught is high and these cops here dont play that S**t...i will keep it on the track for 1/4 races...autocross is on my mind to

Of course with my Honda Jazz 1.2 L12A iDSi 05 model.

Raced my friends Renault Clio 1.2 with pipercross air intake and full system exhaust, dropped 60mm , kept up nicely but he beat me in higher end.

Raced my friends VW Polo 1.2.....beat him easily

I've maxed it out to redline 6k before and I've done 110mph.

I'll probably do an Auto-X or two once the car is broken in and a few track days I'm sure.

Uhh I kept up with my friends S2K on a wide looping freeway overpass. She has Apex'i N1 coilovers too! We were both doing ~65-70mph. She was quite surprised to see a fit hugging the turn on her right side!

My first Auto X is on the 20th in H Stock. We are testing to see how competetive it will be in H Stock compared to where it will be in STS on the 21st. I have ran it easy up to the 600 mile break in and pulled 68mph on 35mph off ramp. Fit feels strong... I will let you know what it pulls are FT now that it is over the 600 miles...

New Ford Explorer tested me. I barely beat him from a stop at a red light to 60mph on a 30mph road. If I redlined it I would have beat him easily.

ROFL... The fit handles well but not well enough to keep up with an s2k driven by a competent driver.

HAHAHA I don't think your friend was really racing you because if she did, good bye little Fit.

I was going to counter your statement with something like, "A Fit most certainly could keep up with an S2k, if the S2k driver was totally dogging it just to make the Fit driver feel better!

There are places a Fit might be able to dust an S2k, though. Inside a shopping mall might be one...remember "The Blues Brothers"?

There's videos of a the Fit keeping up and even passing Evo8s, Skylines, RX7 I think.

It also passed an S2K on a track, but on the straight it couldn't keep up, but on corners it over took.
