Okay, so i challanged an Acura NSX to a race at the local dragstrip. It is a 1992, Red, Cherry, and fairly stock NSX. He was giving me a really hard time about the whole rental car thing and saying that it couldn't get out of its own way... Well, I said put it where your mouth is. As far as I am concerned, I cannot lose! He has never run it before at the track which means he probably won't launch is great. If he wins, he has a freaking Supercar, he should beat me. If I win, he got beat by a rental car! Hahaha. Win/Win Situation. They run stock about a 13.90 AFAIK. I should have a 13.75-.80 in it, as she sits. I ran a 14.0 before the 3.0L with 270FWHP. I have 299FWHP now and gobs more torque... What do you all think? Am a sucker? I am trying to bet a Digi VidCam for the event.

He has a Turbo SVT. Posted about it in SE MI forums. Perhaps that explains things?

that still doesn't explain beating a car that runs 13's stock and are very rarely unmodded.
