Do you know why it is being restricted to NA cars only? That seems
a little silly for a show that is supposed to be about the fastest
cars from each camp. It is common logic that tells you that well
buit NA for well built NA, the civic is the winner hands down.
Both camps have a slew of nice, built, forced-induction cars; and
having more power does a lot towards leveling the playing field in
civic vs. se-r. It seems to me that restricting the contest to NA
cars is heavily favoring the honda camp. I'm not suggesting that
they are wittingly handicapping the se-rs, but I don't anticipate
a very exciting show if even the most built NA se-rs in the
country are racing against even a garden-variety CRX with a
b-series and well-sorted suspension. For each of the 5, 10, 20+
fastest NA se-rs in the COUNTRY, I'll bet there are 20 faster
hondas in Southern California alone!
