Redline smokes RSX.
heading back home from the movies tonight and we had just left my friend Jin at his house (got to drive his 289 whp Redline, handles amazingly!) so its my wife driving, her best friend in the passenger seat and Im in the back seat behind the passenger.
its about 11:30 at night and we stop at a red light and a black RSX pulls up next to us. the guy was a latin dude, classic ignorant type too. when the light goes green he peels off and sticks his head out to look back and smiles back at us like he just smoked us. "I didnt know he wanted to race!" says my wife. well lucky for us the next light was also red and once again we lined up side by side. She revs up and drops the clutch at about 1800 rpms, we sat there spinning for a bit buy surprisingly the wheel hop wassnt as bad as Ive heard. he got a car out but by the time we caught traction we pulled up hard on his tail. she shifted at 5300 rpms and matched him by second. pulled agian up to 5000rpms and shifted. second and third where just brutal, it looked like he hit the brakes from how fast we passed by him. by the top of third she had a 2 car lead or better on him. I saw a cop up ahead at an intersection and screamed out to her to slow it down. she did in time and so did the RSX, we went seperate ways after that. cliff notes: my wife smokes an RSX and will probably smoke you too!

Re: Redline smokes RSX.
Was it a Type-S? or the weak one?

Re: Redline smokes RSX.
No clue if it was a type S, it was debadged. I think not though, it was so easy to kill him and she didnt even go all out. Im sure it was a base model thats why i didnt title the thread "Redline smokes RSX-S."

Re: Redline smokes RSX.
Damn bro, you are a one lucky bastard Mushman... I just wish my g/f knew how to race like that... or even be able to drive a stick... or even be able to drive at all!
Lol, either way it's nice to see ur wife getting some kills under her belt... So what is it now for her in a Redline... 2-0? Sweet!

Re: Redline smokes RSX.
Even if it was a type S the end result would have been the same. Damn I need a bigger turbo before I start getting smoked by pregnant women

Re: Redline smokes RSX.
Acura RSX's all seem to think my ride is a target. They've all missed.

Re: Redline smokes RSX.
Redlines are quick, not fast... dont get toooo cocky. It wont always be an rsx in the other lane.

Good kill for your wife, though. I expected as much. Even if it was a Type S, I've been able to run with them and take them in the past a few times, so I fully expect that you would indeed win.

Re: Redline smokes RSX.
Ehh good kill for your wife. Sounds like that Redline hauls ass. I'm waiting on you getting the stage 2 package for the car, and seeing what it will do.
Does it corner well?

the steering is electronic so the response is instant. I personally dont like electronics and drive-by-wire but I must admit that with no linkage the reaction and tellemetry of the car is just unbelivable. The suspension for those cars was actually tunned at the Nurburgring. It didnt set any track record but at least they went through the trouble of tunning it at a high control track instead of a straight-linner like Willow Springs.
