> well we raced a couple of times down the henday, both from full stop at the lights, i smoked his ass like nothing, as soon as i shifted into 2 it was over. even at a roll then down shifting he had nothing. Sorry Altima I hit the wrong button and accidentally erased this post of yours :oops: . I meant to quote this and ask; if you have raced him before why did you ask who would win when you already have smoked him? ---

Everyone assumes that those old Camaros are fast. Foxbody Mustangs and Camaros that were equipped with the old small blocks from the 80’s only do 0-60 in 7.5, so the spec should be technically faster from the factory. Nice kill on the Prelude too, they’re heavy as fuck, even if they are nicer looking. ---

I used to have an 89 Honda Prelude… type S with 5 speed and that thing was QUICK for stock… i liked how well it handled the most as the preludes seem wide to me… ---

89 Prelude Type S??? You mean Prelude S or 2.0si? I never heard of a 89 Prelude Type S. Just looking for clarity, not saying you’re stupid or anything, so plz don’t get the wrong idea 🙂 ---
