If he was a manual he'd put up a better fight (but would still lose): with the shift-tronic (read: stupid automatic with a marketing gimmick), the race will be considered manslaughter.

I raced a prelude that had every bolt on possible (minus a turbo) and needless to say it was almost as bad as racing a stock one. For some reason these cars aren't that fast short of turbo or supercharging.

They sure can make a lot of noise though.

I beat a 99 prelude w/ CAI, Exhaust, test pipe, header, cams by half a car length 4 times..he was stick as well. h22a prelude's are fairly quick from a roll.
