look up stats on nsx.. it's 3100lb and if it was 3.0 version it has less torque than out v6. If it was auto, too, then nothing surprising about it, really. As you know peak torque on our cars is 4k, I punched at 3k, so I was almost immediately at peak torque... it was from a roll. I heard him punch it too, but his engine took too long to go up to high rpms, and as you know those engines have nonexistant torque and horsepower is available only at topend.Originally posted by Timbo1969:

So, THINK before you call BS.
And yeh, my car is manual = under 3300 lb, and he had a passenger, too
another note: where did u find nsx with 290 horses? go to carpoint.comComment

Some more info on both motors:
Optional Engine Specifications
3.0L 252-hp V6 3.2L 290-hp V6
Horsepower 252 @ 6600 RPM 290 @ 7100 RPM
Torque 210 @ 5300 RPM 224 @ 5500 RPM
Displacement 2977 3179
210 torque isn't much lower... and at probably hits that right around 15-20mph where you were at... and was probably in VTEC too.. unless again he had already shifted into second and didn't know you were going to punch it in first.<b><a href=\"http://members.cox.net/95batmobile/d86f.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Sinister Six©</b></a><br /><a href=\"http://www.sounddomain.com/id/95batmobile\" target=\"_blank\">My \'95 Bird</a><br />I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship.Comment

You're looking at 3.2
There's a good chance that it was 3.0
WHICH IS:
252 @ 6600 RPM
210 @ 5300 RPM
lacking a little torque out there, eh? And look where peak is: at whooping 5300rpm. I was in peak powerband the whole time, it is possible he wasn't in his peak powerband all the time.
Like I said, as soon as I got a jump on him from 20mph roll, he stopped. If he would've continued, he would've passed me eventually. But he didn't, so I won!Comment

Actually we punched almost at the same time, I saw his car jerk up. Like I said though, it took him long time to spool up the engine, which leads me to beleive that he can't drive and was in the wrong gear and I got a car jump on him. Whatever happened, it was just like I said it happened.Comment

Come to think of it: he probably thought my car was a v8 and he had a girl in his car and he didn't want to embarass himself, so after I got a jump on him he just stopped racing to save face. lol
can't wait to get LS1 Firebird Formula 6sp... ultimate sleeper [img]smile.gif[/img]Comment
