LOL.

I think the RSX is a big disappointment. I have been lurking on clubrsx cuz I was interested in that car but there are hardly any people running 14's stock on that site. So that was a major turnoff about that car. I dunno if it is the car or the drivers.

From my experience with that car there is about 2000rpm of any real power and you have to be a damn good driver to get the most out of that car. I will say that car has the best gearbox I have ever felt.

they say they are still "learning" to drive their cars.

Alot of people might not try to take them too far yet considering that people might just be passing the breakin period now.

I like the Integra better...the RSX's are too "fat" for my tastes, just looks squashed or something.

Hey, Mark. How does the RSX gearbox compare to BMW's stuff. Similar?

i think the seats are amazing, and the steering is simply perfect, but changing gears for every slight grade in the hill gets annoying, i raced my friend type s on the highway starting at 70 and was in front of him and around 110 he started inching by me and only got his headlights half car in front of mine and just held there, then if you read my post a couple days ago, i found i been driving with my throttle governed at half throttle for the last couple months, so there is no way he could beat me now if i had that on him at half throttle

Not to mention, try running hard with all 4 people in the car. hehe, you will never get anywhere. Put four people in a Max and it will still pull away. The max is a perfect middle ground.

Driving Vtec cars is fun, they are a blast to drive, they sound great, but for normal driving you gotta be on top of every gear or take forever waiting for the car to get going. I found I started driving like a real person when I got my 1st Max. I wasn't always reving up and racing around.

I know what you mean it looks like somone kind of pushed it in from the back and the sides popped out from pressure. I thought that the first time I saw one.

That's funny!! Seriously, the few RSX Type S that I've seen at the track run low 16s consistently. (much slower than its predecessor - the GSR

Games are Optimistic

Video Games assume two things:
1) PERFECT track/car conditions
2) button-fast shifts; you press the button and you're in the gear!

Wonder what a 2002 6-speed Max would run? Assuming it's a MAXima with the SE option and drag radials...
