SVX (mine) dusted an Acura
Great fun this evening. I was cruising home from work when a riced out Acura stopped along side of me at a stop light and rolled down his window. (All my glass is blacked out....) I noticed his decaled rice mobile as a ricer and decided to comment...)
"Whats up?" I asked. He replied "just having fun." The light turned green, I punched it, first gear held nice, ricer was holding to my rear quarter panel but fading. Second gear (somewhere around 50 to 60 I think. I was watching the road...) I was easily pulling ahead...) stayed it the throttle until the puss backed off. He knows all about my SVX by now. Just had to share.... Rob (In love with his car...) |

Re: Re: SVX (mine) dusted an Acura
Must be either an Integra or RSX. Most ricers dress up those cars and hit the streets looking for trouble (remember stickers add 10hp each ). Glad you took him to school...
-Chike P.S. Bet he didn't know what your car was. He'll probably tell his friends he lost to an NSX! Quote:

a 6-speed new TL would give you some trouble

i'm actually suprised to hear about all this success against hondas.... true, in their stock form, the civics and the integras are not that powerful, but it really isn't that hard, with all the aftermarket support, to tune a civic into an off-the-line beast... there is no question that from 70mph+ the svx will definitely take over, but wow... i'm amazed to hear that the svx is doing so well off the line.....

I'm actually surprised it'll be close from a stop on account of the SVX's AWD launch. Plus those RSX's are FWD, and if the driver gives it too much gas, all they'll get are spinning front wheels and torque steer...

Hell I posted about a year ago that I beat my friend and his 1997 3000gt SL... It was great... Just search my posts from about a year ago... I tore him up all through 1st gear then (with my tranny slipping) he passes ever so slowly about mid 2nd gear... I know that with the 5 speed he wouldn't stand a chance now
