i raced a RSX-S, both of us are stock racing in the streets... we were neck to neck after the end of my 2nd gear, then RSX-S took it all the way..

so between RSX base and tC, they should be head to head with each other stock.

the driver on the tC was probably scared to wheel hop. the tC does have a major wheel hopping problem... GET A DAMPER KIT!

 

As it said on the end, the RSX only had one driver! For all I know, the tC had 5 people in it!

anyways, really no point in these vids. You know which car has more horsepower and which SHOULD win. The point of these vids is to watch the guy with the obviously faster car lose and laugh at him. Even if it were cars in the same class, it would still be about the drivers.

the tC rocks period

 

I don't have a problem with wheel hop. Learn to feather the clutch right.

Vid's been talked out at yoursciontc.com

 

how do you exactly feather the clutch for the tC????


is that when you release the clutch to the point where it gives gas but the car does not move?? -- guessing

 

tell him to race me... ill spank his monkey ___

 

To be honest with you guys, I think the tC is easier to drive, and most likely it'll let them perform better than base RSXs by a slight margin. Based on what I've seen, the tC has the fastest stock 1/4 thanks to cjimport on clubsciontC, it's like a 15.4xxx, whereas the fastest base RSX time is like 15.5. Although it's possible that the reason why is because all the RSX enthusiasts get the Type S and not much is known about the base, I wouldn't be surprised if the tC could see more kills on a base RSX than the other way around. But when you factor the driver's into the race, i believe it's a driver's race, since the slightest difference in skill could make a difference

 

Well i have personally raced a 02+ civic si (basically a base rsx, same engine and almost same curb weight) anyways we were dead even all the way through 3rd and deep into 4th (it was also uphill though) and he was very surprised because i kept up with him the whole time (including the bends in the road we had to slow for ). He had a catback exhaust, intake, lowering springs and 18's with decent tires and at the time all i had was trd rear sway. hehe. also we started from a roll at about 5 mph. afterwards we stopped in our school parking lot and talked for a couple mins and he was very surpised i kept up with him especially through the turns. anyways i think it really all depends on the driver in this race because i think the base rsx is lighter and has a lil more aggressively tuned engine (same hp but with 2l instead of 2.4l) but i think our tourque curve in a lil better and our 5 speed is more aggressively geared. In those videos the difference in speed is so much u would expect like a 1+ sec difference in the 1/4 mile but obviously all the professional magazine drivers are much closer so it is obvously all driver error (or just plain out rigged). anyways i think we should ignore it and just prove them wrong with timeslips from the track
