Default Smoked a Honda Prelude

Lined up with a Prelude after work tonight, had rims, American Racing like mine just different style, and a piece of crap fart can, sure he was pretty sure of himself he would smoke me cause the preludes can be quick, the 5th Gens are. Anyways, the light turns green and we both take off, and honestly were about neck and neck give or take a few inches of me being ahead. Then I start pulling on him while he is shifting into second gear, after that I was gone. He never touched me after that.

i never see 1st gear, it goes by way to quick. To say im neck and neck with someone in first gear is like saying we never left the line.

Well that'* because you have a 2000 SSEI, I have a 90 SE, maybe once I get my turbo in I won't see first gear either, it will go by just as quick as it does for u.

Y'know, it could have been. I killed an iVtec so easily, I bet an N/A would run as close as he is describing...

Prelude: music that precedes a fugue or introduces an act in an opera

Sounds like a great car.

you must have a unique area because all of these cars want to race you. I wonder if they're actually even trying and just accelerating normally while you go full throttle from every stop for no reason whatsoever.
