Nice kill.

I raced a v6 genesis from a stoplight once. He got the jump due to torque, but he couldn't pull away. From a roll, I believe I would've been at least neck and neck with him. And that's coming from a mostly stock ap1.

I don't think we (as stock S's) could pull on a hustle car like the 3.8 Gen on a dig. I think we may be able to keep up on a roll in VTEC range. Next time you see a 3.8 give it a go. I'll try to do so as well, but 3.8's are unusually hard to find in my area. Most people get the base model in my area.

Also, it's hard for me to tell Gen 2.0t's apart. They started with 210 hp and then jump to ~270 hp. Do you know which one you raced?
