Well, I was riding on the highway with my brother on the passenger seat. The highway that leads to my house is a very long two lane straigh road, about 8 miles totally straight which is not lit. Because its not lit, my strobes and blue neon underglow look really pimp. The glow is very very bright and the bars are hidden. The strobes are illegal, only ambulances can use it but I bought them because they are very bright.
Anyways,
I was on the highway without my underglow or the stobes when I see a bright green Nissan Tsuru (Old sentra in the US, boxy one). The green tsuru has green ground effects, but I could see the bars, they were not hidden. So i ride up to him, slow down, we are cruising window to window and I turn on my blue underglow. So its green car with green glow against blue car with blue glow. Totally Dark. I rev up my engine (which I never do), and look at the guy. The guy rolls down his window and gives me thumbs up, and screams "yeah bro!". I was a little shocked, toooo friendly. So I punch it in third and this guy automatically rides on to my tail. I go to the left lane, he is on my right, I wait for him to go, he goes and I punch it in third. In a matter of four seconds i gained two cars on him. What couldve i expected, running against a 1.6 110 hp, car. He knew he had NO chances. We did it for about 2 times, and then my exit was comming up. Rolled down the window, looked at him, and we both screamed, Yeah BRO!. It feels very very nice when people are friendly. Two friendly ricers I guess. Lol.

I really like when a couple of strangers can just do stuff like that and have a good time without some stupid faggot having to be an asshole. The people i meet like that are for the most part cool but i've run into a bunch of dumbasses. Your underglow i must say is really badass too!

Well done, I agree that it is always nice to race people for fun and not because you're pissed off at them. Although i guess both have perks.
btw, good lookin' ride

That expression is used to mean the story made him laugh. I don't think he was saying anything bad, just that the whole scenario of how the race came about was funny(different).

Well, probably a better way to show you is to link you to this thread: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=131240
That Del Sol should be similar in acceleration as your car.
Also, here's another against another Honda with probably similar acceleration as yours:

The Tsuru GSR is exactly like my car, same motor and everything. It weighs between 2350 to 2400 lbs, has the 140HP SR20DE motor, with 132ft-lbs of TQ.
It's the light-weight, combined with a high relative TQ (it puts the same TQ to the wheels as a Type R, and is much lighter), a good powerband, and excellent gearing makes it a good match for your car. Oh, did I mention the stock LSD? :p
(Sorry about the above...I hardly ever get the chance to talk-up my car, so I did it;))
