I figured I'd entertain ya'll with a few racing stories while I'm stuck at home. Well thursday night is the usual night everyone meets and cruises the streets... you know the usual stuff. Well anyways theres this guy there that drives a stock srt-4 (actually he sucks at driving and has ran a best time of like 15.4) and he always talks shit about my cb7. Stuff like "why you driving that piece of junk when your in the military making all that money." Hehe he doesn't know I have a h22 yet and still to this day doesn't know. Well we take it on the street and pull out from the parking lot I left a stock z24 cavy and a few other civics and finally got beside the srt. We go from a 40 roll I put at least 2 cars on him by the time I hit third. It was more of a murder than a race. I tried to get him to line up with me at the next light but he turned off and went home after that lmao. Instead a new 05 v6 mustang pulls up revving the engine... I'm thinking why. The light turns green and I give him the bottom of first, my car hits vtec and I snap off a 8200 rpm shift and go tire spinning by him and put about 3 cars at around 90. Him and I go at it at the next couple of lights with this nasty sohc civic right on my tail ( he runs 15.1s at the track all day long) and we're both whooping up on this mustang. I kinda felt sorry for the guy. We turned and head toward the highway where my buddy in his sohc neon (13.8 sec car on slipping clutch) the mustang and this 13 sec golf gti are speeding off ahead of me. We all finally make it to the highway where the mustang, neon and gti are about 15 or so cars ahead and everyone else is behind me. Cars include civics, prelude, another srt-4, z24 cavy, yada yada yada. Well I hear the guys up front jump on the gas so everyone behind me and I get on it at the same time... My car is bouncing over the bumps making all sorts of rattles and sounds as I top out third at around 110 or so. I snap off a shift into 4th and contiune on all the while I'm sucking up the mustang. The gti and neon are putting crazy ass lengths inbetween us. Well at about 8k on the tach and 128 on the speedo there about 5 cars inbetween me and the mustang and the inevitable happened... My car suddenly loses power like it hit a governor or a rev limiter. I throw the car in neutral very confused cause the rev limiter is set at 9k and I dont have a governor. Then it happens the oil light comes on and I shut the car off. Limp the car to the off ramp and park... Somehow the car burned, leaked, ate most of its oil. Everyone else finally pulls up and we fill the oil back up and the car starts backup like normal but only with a slight knock from the bottom end. I talked to the guys in the mustang and they said their speedometer was well passed 120... close to 130 when I was pulling up on them... So I'll never know how fast I was really going.
The motor held up for a few more days of driving and got a few more kills under its belt too. But as of yesterday the rod called it quits so I parked it.
Oh well good by stock h22. Hello built all motor monster.
Sorry I couldn't tell a better story... Maybe I'll go back and edit in some more stuff that happen that night. Well enjoy

Oil leak?What oil leak? That's just sweat from all that horsepower!
Well let that be a lesson to you you didnt even have a h23 manual tension conversion on it serves you right. You should set your redline lower your not gonna make any more power beyond that point anyway. Then you got rodknock ontop of that more abuse i see pointless.
how far are from winston?
