at a stalemate with an RSX

the other day i was drivin down the serivce road on the expressway and some hot shot flew by me in his 2002 Acura RSX Type S so i figured id go after his little 4-cylender pimper...now unless he put any mods on i was stumped....i was flooring it and i just could NOT pass him...i have the stock 190hp V6 in my 92 SE auto. We were actually even in speed, he was ahead of me and we were almost dead even in speed to each other....i didnt think the RSX was as great as the magazines say...maybe it was just a dose of bad luck hopefully

this is a no brainer

200 hp vtec motor w/ 6 spd w/ a significant weight advantage

vs

190 hp VTC motor w/ slush box

think about it for a fraction of a second and you'll understand

Yeah dude, give yourself a pat on the back for even hanging with it. Those things are darn quick.

You're lucky he didn't smoke you... he must not know how to drive the thing. It has 200hp, 6spd manual, and weighs a good bit less. He should have smoked you pretty badly...

Take care,
