i would have thought a Maxima '01 could take out a 99 v-tec even if the Maxima was Auto.

yeah cuz i could have sworn the 99 preludes didn't have more than 200hp anyway. so the prelude he raced probably had like a turbo or nos or some kind of damn big mod.

I dont see what the problem is. A stock 5spd lude can run a 15.1 in the quarter mile, if not better with a damn good driver. It seems i have always been mistaken by ludes as well, but they really are quick cars. Low 15's stock, 14.5's with intake and exhaust, and they will run into the 13's w/o problems with JUST bolt ons. The auto max is good for maybe what....15.4??

i know their are good, but i'm still surprised. from the posts i read the auto max runs 14's. that's why i'm really surprised a prelude would beat a Maxima (both stock). Celicas have 200hp and a Maxima can easily kill that.
