Default 2.0 vs 5.0

This is why i love Honda.. yes the race is idiotic but what can i say,
3.0 difference, 115 whp difference.. and about $24 grand difference,
and still couldnt get more than half a car length.. Stewie even starts catching
up before the stang hit them brakes.

The car in that video is from Texas I think.. It had a Texas plate on it when I saw it in Houston..

He said he was from Dallas..

Lmao he did brake boost, you don't hear it spooling in the video when they are lined up??

He should have started in the right gear.. He was in 4th from the sound of it..

I don't think you can pull the "2.0 v.s. 5.0" card when the 2.0 car has a giant turbo attached to it.

If you really wanted to make it fare, you should have told the Mustang to disconnect 4 spark plug wires.
