Default Went out for a midnight drive too!! Few friendly races!!

As the topic states... Went out with 4 other friends each with a car. '01 accord sedan v6, '02 RSX auto, '91 Civic HB DX, 92 Carolla sedan. ANYway blah blah came to a 4 lane rd with a red light.

Accord to my left, Civic HB to my right, and RSX another car down. Light goes green, we take off! Civic peeled out so the 3 of us with autos sticks ahead, dead even until around 40mph, the accord starts to pull on me alittle while i start to slightly move foward from the RSX. By around 60~70mph the accord is about 1 car length ahead of me and the RSX is in my blind spot and I can see the HB civic in my rear view mirror with enough room to change lanes!!

Here are the mods on each car!
Accord: 18" Racing Harts, AEM pulleys, 2 12" subs/amps, Eibach springs
RSX: Stock
Civic HB: DC header, Injen Short ram, ebay coilovers
Xa: Weapon R intake(air ducted to fog light hole and header wrapped), DC header (Wrapped), coolant bypass at TB, 2" custom exhaust(wrapped) with a OEM V6 Eclipse muffler, Ground kit, 15" Rota Slipstrims, Muteki light weight lug nuts, Tein S tech, Hotchkiss sways, Homemade Front/back upper strut mount


I'm frankly quite pleased with the auto Xa's performance!! Coming next to the Xa is Perrin Pulley, Weapon-R engine dampener. Hopefully with that I would be able to at least be even with the v6 accord!! If not, a 35 shot of nitrous should kill it!!

i would like to see pics of your rear strut bar. I 'm trying to figure out how to make one that's easily removed for hauling stuff.

Not a great line of cars, but good to hear that the xA held up nicely against them :D
