That was definitely a quick Honda but I really got the impression that the Skyline driver was just dickin with him. A few time you could hear the Honda accelerating when the Skyline would race up to his side then slow to an even speed. Hard to tell by that video. I'd rather see a video of a quarter mile grudgematch.

Speaking of quickness, yesterday coming home from the Philly airport after dropping off the wife, I encountered one of the new Acura SH AWD (unsure of the exact model) cars driven by some woman as it turned out. It almost seemed that she shot out of the hole at every light and onto the highway. Not sure how hard she was trying but while I was not trying my best to keep up with her, the SVX did have to work a bit to keep up. I would let her make the first move before I would get on it to gauge the difference between the two cars so I had a small disadvantage there but then some Caddy in the left lane decided to move out and pretty much convinced me that the SVX is not as fast a car as it feels to drive. These new cars are amazing.
