raced on a highway a couple times
from a 65 and 75 and generally just playing around
he blew by me when i was easing on the gas from 65
then he slowed up a little then we crept up to 75 and we both hit it
he didn't start passing til about 95-100 and i shut down when he got about 2 car lengths or so on me (too many cops as we were entering into the city part of the highway (not just country anymore))
gave him a thumbs up and we kept it cool all the way til i got off the highway
couldn't tell if it was a type r or not since it was so dark out and his car was black
either way, i was surprised i hung on long enough even with my little v6
boy, i hope i get my z28 this week, haha
just thought i'd share since i don't get too many races

 

Arent the type R's imported from Japan so he would have been on the right side. Maybe not I don't know that much about those cars. I just figured it was not for sale in america.

 

They do make american type rs but they are VERY rare and get stolen a lot. Get your v8...

 

VERY rare???? Theres probally 3 or 4 type R's around where I live, and teens own them... Also i think they're steering wheel is on the left side...

 

How much you wanna bet theyre not real. Go look at the production numbers, there are like 1500 in the states. Those guys just make them look like type rs.

 

All I know is if it has an R sticker on the back, it's time to s**t your pants. LOL

 

it was probably a standard integra because a type r would have pulled harder. also the type r is left hand drive and i think there are more than 1500 over here...


just be thankful it wasnt a turboed teg with 300 at the ground. cuz even then the ls1 woulnt have hung.

 

ok, guess it wasn't a type r
sorry, i'm not really knowledgeable on acuras and any foreign cars in general
dont worry though, the z28 should be in my driveway by next weekend

 

"just be thankful it wasnt a turboed teg with 300 at the ground. cuz even then the ls1 woulnt have hung."

That turbo integra would then been thankful his car doesnt have a built big block....

 

last i checked the ran from a 75 roll. big block torque wont do much there. basically he would have an overweight POS in the car for that kind of race.

 

Im just making a point, what you said is the equivlent of someone losing a race then saying "your lucky i dont have a turbo."

 

i said that because there is a growing number of them and you really cant tell which ones are turbo and which ones arent anymore. thats all.
