Default A few mustangs...and an RSX-S

Ran a 99 Mustang GT the other night on the highway, from about 40mph to about 110 (top down), i can't even count the number of car lengths... can't count that high, lol. but it was only a convertible automatic so i didn't expect any competition.

Ran a 94 Mustang 5.0 with a few mods like intake, exhaust, heads from a dead stop at a quarter mile race. i beat him by about 3 car lengths. he had his gf in the car though, but i put him to shame, lol. i don't think he expected to be beaten by a honda.

Ran my buddy in his RSX type S on the highway, he's got intake and a chip. we raced from 50 to 130. i slowly pulled on him and i put a few car lengths on him at the end. we both had 1 person in the car (he had a girl), and i had my top down.

one else feel invincible in there S? lol. but there's only one person i've never been able to beat. my best friend has a 95 VR4 Spyder (320hp, 300lb/ft, ouch), and he whips me every time.

Actually, does the V-AFC work with i-VTEC?

You say your friends VR-4 whips you everytime I dont know if your driving the S2000 right. From a 10mph me and my friend race(he has a 97 VR4 Coupe), and we are dead even all the way to 145mph. It is a really cool race to watch.

The first time we raced he beat me by a little bit. Then I changed my oil with Valvoline Synpower Synthetic, and took out my spare tire and tool kit. Now we are dead even everytime.

Throw a boost controller on a VR4 and it can move. I raced one from a launch with the SC (back when I was still launching) and it was neck and neck. He felt that I would have had him from a roll, as I was about to start gaining on him at 80 or so.
