Friends don't let friends burn rice

I was drving down the road yesterday and I saw one of those hooked up honda civics. Among the ground effects and big a**hole it had one of those spoilers that stands a foot high. I don't know why I had never thought of it before. The civic is of course a front wheel drive car. Maybe somebody can back me up on this. Doesn't this render the spoiler nearly useless. I may be wrong in this, but in this case wouldn't the drag created by the spoiler actually do more harm than good.
Anyways, I'm driving home from work in my 84 firebird. now my firebird is a V7 with a 4bbl carb and 200K miles. I pull up next to this civic and I can see that he's got a monster tach and a fire extinguisher on the inside. We were on the highway doing about 65 and I here him drop gears. Feeling somewhat challenged I drop out of overdrive and give the old bird all she's got. To my own amazment I watch the civic steadily drift behind me. I can hear his motor racing but he doesn't seem to be picking up any speed.
I'm not trying to brag about my car. I'm not even trying saying I've got any driving skills. I'm just saying that honda's suck.
