I think the S would win maybe by a bit, just simple mods on an Rsx S helps so much!

The RSX-S is faster on paper, but the extreme high-end biased power means that most drivers won't be able to get the full potential out of the car. In a 1/4 mile race, the Maxima 5spd has the edge. Most RSX-S guys don't get better than a 15.5, and a 5spd Max can beat that.

Stock to stock the RSX will win. Trust me I know from personal experiance. I use to track race a lot with my max wheh it was almost bonse stock aside from a Drop in filter. And I have a consistent .520-.550 reaction time. And there are times out on the streets when I raced bone stock RSXs and gotten beat. now if you have yer max modded a little, with maybe Y pipe exhaust or chip and he is stock then you may win. But if he gots his upgrades then it will be a driver race then. Good luck though.

We'll the starter of this thread has an auto so unless the RSX-S driver really sucks he's dead.
And no a car that falls on its face above 5500rpm is not made for top end. The RSX will eat you alive up there.

It really depends on how the race starts, is it a stop or a roll, and how fast????
