good story

i have a 99 si and one of my freinds has a 99 prlude sh. we raced a few times before and i always had trouble hanging with him , he would always leave me in first gear pretty bad , well recently i lowered my car and we decide to race again and this time he has major trouble outrunning me i pretty much stay side by side with him, people always told me if you lower your car then it makes a big difference but i never beleived them, but from my own espereince that was the best 150 dollars i ever spent. our cars are pretty stock i have a cai and he has an exhaust. i was never so proud of my si when my freind said that "lil fucker runs, what did u do to it."

well simple physics....you have alot better weight transfer now...stiffer springs ( I assume for 150), would keep the car planted more firmly. I just love the way my SiR handles now with the Koni's and GC's I put on....haven't raced anyone yet thou....roads are still a little wet and slippery..post some pics man
