1995 Honda Del Sol

Welcome to the SolSpeeder project. This project was started in 98, as a daily driver. It has progressed into a track car. This page was set up to track the performance of the car, and it's track times. This should help myself and others track what mods help the most.

The race is ON!


So I think I put my foot in my mouth today...While talking to Corey we got on the topic of how much it would cost to get a car to 10sec's in the 1/4 mile. He was talking HUGE numbers like 30-40K in mods. (not including the cost of the car) While I was on the other end saying it could be done with about 10K. So we took up a bet.

My car + 7K from where it is now in the 10's (anything less then 11sec). We counted up the mods to my car and said it was about 3K in performance parts. Much more in other mods...The rules we talked about for almost an hour...

The winner gets:

If Corey wins: $100 + 1x lap-dance at his fav. Strip bar

If I win: $100 and Corey is my track bitch for one year (I'm not into lap-dances...unless it's from my wife...)

The question is...what should I do to get to <11?

What should I do with the 7K? If you have any ideas of how I should get to 10sec please send me an e-mail: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
