Prelude beats Integra

Why does everyone need to pick on my Prelude. I was on my way home from work and a white Integra with an exhaust and a BIG fin pulls behind me from off of the highway. He was on my bumper for miles and wouldnt get off of it. He had a whole other lane to pass me with and it was starting to piss me off. So I tapped my brakes to let him know to back off. He pulls along side of me cussing so I told him to pull over so I can stomp him. He apolagized and said that he only wanted to race. I brought my car to a stop and said lets do it. When he said go his tires spun and i shot off like a rocket. I took my speedometer to 138 and kept it there till I got back into the city (aprox. 5 miles). I didnt even slow down to see his face. Beating jerks feels good

There is no way that you beat a teg top end unless it was an pre 93 model or you have some heavy mods. Also with stuff like this it is kinda hard to not call BS " I brought my car to a stop and said lets do it. When he said go his tires spun and i shot off like a rocket. I took my speedometer to 138 and kept it there till I got back into the city (aprox. 5 miles). I didnt even slow down to see his face. Beating jerks feels good "
I mean come on man for 5 miles you where going 138 mph? Why? How about other traffic? How about cops?
BS man BS

I think alot of the reason I got the jump on him was becuase he lost traction on take off. I dont have any reason to lie. I would have posted even if I lost. And yes five miles or close to it. I live in Iowa man. I drive home from work through the country and there isnt much traffic on sundays around here. Maybe he doent have very good driving skills. There are many things to consider. Thanks for busting my balls though

Re: Prelude beats Integra

i feel you and believe you man...
i've taken my 97 to 135+ for well over 5 miles

and for you asses that don't believe me...i am currently working on getting the video of it online. my friend was in his Ford Probe (CAI, exhaust, 3 puck clutch, 7.5 lb. flywheel [ended up warping and destroying his tranny at the track], intake manifold and larger throttle body), and his needle was topped out at like 120 then you see me (in my mostly stock 97 lude [just CAI and headers]) fly by and dissappear

i also got footage of the bright blue color my headers turned when we finally got to the track

PS: The guy --driving-- the probe WAS NOT the one with the video camera...his friend (the passenger) was (just so none of this "how could he be recording while driving that fast!!!!!" crap turns up )

There is a huge difference between the 88 and 97

The other day a gsr wanted to race so we did he took me in first cuz mine is a 97 vtec(not sh) so it accelerates slower but in second and third half of my nose was in front so hey just cuz u got a gsr dosent mean u got a rocket. and to tell u the truth no one knows preludes potential cuz no one can affored it lol lol lol. oh and a 97 prelude tops out at 155 while a integra 140-145
AND IF ANYONE THINKS IM BULL SHITIN THEN U NEVER DRIVEN A PRELUDE DOHC VTEC

When you make it to high school, come back and try again, because all you are doing is making an ass of yourself.

Re: Prelude beats Integra

There might be some truth to the top speed thing. Top speed relates to peak horsepower and the coefficient of drag on the body of the car. Since the two cars have similar friction coefficients, horsepower become the primary determinant in who's got a higher top speed.

And ditto on what sofast said.
