    I agree with myko. Too many civics and accords out there not to customize. I don't own one myself, but if I did I'l mod the heck out of it.

    If you come to SoCal then you will stop complaining about everyon on their Civics try to race with you.
    Yes, my family member did own a 98 Civic, and I have nothing against the car. Just the suckers behind the wheel. The car is freaking good for city driving especially with gas milleage and somewhat reliable.
    Seriously how can you race with a Civic DX with just a coffee can muffler and tons of sticker? Some civics owners also go extreme with turbos their civics, but I don't see the point of turboing the civics. Sell it and get the S2K or RSX if you like honda.
    Sometimes, there are coffee can muffler Civics do want to race with me in my Supra. I just laught.

    Children are just influenced by what they see on TV. Plus, they market tons of little plastic pieces to add on like it's a toy or something, sound thingies, and flashy lights, and stuff with some "make your car fast & furious" hype just to trash out a perfectly good, economical car. Some of them look nice, like the ones that go through the trouble of painting the new parts, and others think they can take a turn like a Porche and brake a wheel off or something. That's kinda bad.

    I think it's only entrapment when the cops (or an agent of the law) does it. Though you might br braking other laws (the do-not-incite-idiots law ), who knows.

    its not entrapment. when a cop goes and buys drugs from a dealer. they bust the dealer. that is not entrapment.
    when a cop pulls up in an unmarked car and offers a girl a ride, then asks if she would sck him off for a hund bucks, she says yes. she gets busted. thats not entrapment.

    so revving your engine on the line. getting someone to race you and bust them. is not entrapment.

    sheesh guys read a book.... it helps.
    When in doubt, moo at things.

I'm gonna try the revving, then creeping on green. Be especially cool after my S/C kit arrives. Oh, and my probe is red so maybe that has something to do with it hehe. I should go get a job with the police as an instigator. Basically, you instigate ricers into racing, then creep off the line. The cops catch the ricer for street racing and give you money :P

    How can you have a '97 Ford Probe when their last year was 1996

    Entrapment is where you force someone into an illegal act. Nothing is forcing them to race, other than their ego.

    I am ashamed to see these kids in their ricer civics on the street, but I rarely see any. Civics are very good cars, and even better for racing. Unfortunately movies like the Fast and the Furious come out and give them the wrong idea. Since they can't own Italians they have to have the next best thing.

    As far as the turbo goes, you can buy a d-series engine with VTEC for about $500, and put a turbo on it for less than any engine from and Integra or Civic SI. Turboing a civic can produce a lot of power for a very very small amount of money.

    I lived in Nashville for 5 years, and during that time, the police had a tricked out BMW with limo tint that they had confiscated and turned into an unmarked police car. They went around inciting people to race, then busting them. Someone (I think it was a lawyer, if I remember correctly) with plenty of money and time, appealed his ticket in court. He also got several other victims involved. The end result was that it was ruled to be entrapment. The police department was fined, warned, and forced to give up the BMW at auction. No book needed for this, I lived through it.
