Beat a 7Gen GT..., WTF just happened??? Options

[JoKeRkId613]

I'm on my way home... I see a blue 7th Gen Celi GT on I-75... So I'm just cruising and I notice it's a young guy and the Celi has a little body kit. So I'm thinking, "let me just see how much that car can beat me by". So I pull up even next to him. Three honks. Beep, beep, beep. GO. I had the guy the whole time, pretty much... He kept up with me for like a second. Mind you I have an automatic ST. WTF just happened??? I thought the new Celis were faster! This is a true story and apparently this guy does not know how to drive. I mean, he honked thrice so this was a race. Maybe he was messing with me? What happened? Lol.

97+ Prelude VTEC, only Hondas I know of that are faster is the RSX-S, S2000, NSX. There are other versions of these cars but that's pretty much it. Check the specs of the K20A3 Si, it's a 16 second car also (with a top speed of 118 I think), 16.0 flat based on professional driver facts so 16.5-16.8 with an amatuer. Yeah they are heavy but they aren't really that slow, faster than a Celica GT-S.

A 99 prelude has a 1/4 mile time of 15.4, the 99 civic si has a 1/4 mile time of 15.7 both are faster than celica gt's or st's. The integra type-r which is an acura really a honda does the 1/4 mile in 14.7 stock. A 2000 celica gts has a 1/4 mile time of 15.2s. I couldn't find the 7th gen GT's numbers but I'm guessing its better than 16s.
