Well, the Type R is limited to 155, but you can take of a limiter... I don't know... just d/loadign the vid, thanks gis :)

no probs TT

well,i just watched the video again,this is a tough call.the other 2 cars are an audi RS4 and an M3 BMW,he gets in behind them to get a slip stream effect.

to me,personally i think its genuine

I think it's real, as gis said, it's the slipstream effect of the BMW...really cool video though...thanks for sharing

It can be real, slipstream help a lot and the cars where pretty close, so it can be real...

BTW, the sound of that Civic... I have to say I never saw a new gen Type R flat out, but it seems so "open"...

Sounds like a landmower...and it's not because it's a 4 cylinder, it's civic's they sound like that, if not check out the Alfa's 4 cylinder, that's a sweet noise..

dl right now, Dam 160 in that lil thing must be crazy!

gis 08-06-2003 05:24 PM

to be honest,the car seemed so comfortable and stable doin 160mph.i was very surprised when i saw it,but i think its genuine

Looks real to me. I wouldn't be surprised if a Civic could go that fast.
