Civic AWD!! Nitro RallyCross! ChatGPT

 Yes — there have been Honda Civic race cars campaigned in top-level rallycross (Global Rallycross / Nitro Rallycross) — most famously the OMSE / Honda Red Bull Civic Coupes run in GRC/NRX from ~2016–2018 and revived for NitroRX entries around 2021. Below I summarize the publicly-documented specification highlights (what the race teams built into the Civic rallycross cars), with sources.

Short answer — headline specs

Car / base: 2016 Civic Coupe (production chassis heavily modified by Olsbergs MSE / HPD). 

Power: >600 hp (race-tuned turbocharged engine). 

Drivetrain: All-wheel drive (race-spec AWD / rallycross layout) — purpose-built driveline (not the stock FWD). 

0–60 mph / accel: ~1.9–2.0 s (published race/car claims). 

Chassis & build: full motorsport conversion — roll cage, reinforced structure, bespoke suspension mounts, rallycross-spec bodywork. HPD (Honda Performance Development) helped with technical development. 

Suspension & running gear: competition coil-overs / OMSE race suspension (race dampers such as OMSE / R53 spec on cars sold later), big brakes, rally-spec hubs. 

Transmission: motorsport/sequential gearbox (race spec), heavy-duty driveline components to handle big torque.

More context / what these numbers mean

These rallycross Civics are not stock Civics — they start from a production shell but are effectively purpose-built race cars (engine, gearbox, AWD conversion, tubular subframes, safety cell). Sources from Honda/OMSE and race reports repeatedly describe them as 600+ hp, super-quick rallycross supercars. 

The Civic rallycross car was campaigned by teams such as Olsbergs MSE (OMSE) with factory support / HPD technical assistance and ran successfully in Global Rallycross and Nitro Rallycross programs.

If you want I can next (pick one):

1. Show photos / video highlights of the OMSE / Honda Civic rallycross cars (I can pull race gallery images and YouTube highlights).

2. Produce a more detailed tech sheet (engine type speculations vs. confirmed items) and mark which items are officially confirmed vs typical race-team modifications.

3. Find current-for-sale OMSE Civic rallycross cars (listings + prices / parts included).
