Awesome race with an RSX today!!!!

[JPK]

I was coming home from work and was beside this blue RSX. No "type S" or anything. We come to some open road and he starts rev'n at me.

I looked over at him and shook my head yes thinking "easy kill". We both hit it. We were at about 65. HOLY SHIT!!! This dude is staying with me?!?!?!?!?! By the end of third and beginning of fourth he had pulled on me and was ahead of me. My front end was right at his hine quarter panels. We stayed that way until we both shut down around 125.

I roll down my window and say, "What you got in that thing man?" He said, "Let's pull over". So we turned off the road and I get out and say, "No stock RSX has ever beaten me, I know you got some shit." He laughed and said, "yeah, it's really a debadged type S with a turbo and I've been taking a lot of people by suprise." I told him, "I KNEW IT!!!" I said. "Hell, I drive a Saturn, I'm ALWAYS taking people by suprise in mine."


We talked for a couple of minutes and he asked about my car and complimented me on how quick it was. He actually knew it was the Red Line. As we parted ways and got back into our cars he says, "I gotcha!!!"

I said, "Yeah, but not by much."

Great race. Really cool guy. I love it when a car takes you by suprise.

I just thought it was cool that I got to race an RSX that was actually packing some heat.

Usually, it's these punk kids that are completely stock and feeling pretty confident until all they can do is stare at the tail lights of my Ion and then not even acknowedge me at the next stop light.

did he say anything about which kit he had?

Nice run. Most of the Turbo Type-S's are much faster than that, but a win's a win, so, again, nice run. Oh, and sleepers are definately cool...

No, we only talked for about a minute or so. It was far from an ass whoopin. I only lost by about 1/3 the length of the RSX. Like I said, my front end was at his rear panel and that's the most he got on me.
