Take racing to the track = you keep your civic.
Civics are prevalent in Southern California street racing. There are a ton of hot hatch civic's crawling a l l over California. I have less friends now due to illegal street racing. Cops are not fu(kn around. And all you UK folks complain about are loud exhausts...lol
There are 5 civic's, 3 ITRs, 2 vtec preludes and 2 GTRs at my work alone, just to give you an idea of the amount of civics we have out here, not that a GTR is a civic...but still a cherry car. I try to park close to the GTRs to keep attention away from mine. lol theft decoy.
