2557, answer by afternoon please! can I beat an accord v6 Posted by ez, Mar-21-03 09:43 AM
guy at my work has been talking trash about eclipses. I said I'll take him on any time. He wants to race for paychecks. I said I didn't know about that tho'
I have a manual 99 rs with basic boltons. will I beat the honda?
edit it's a 2001 accord, i think it's auto

I would say yes but it would be pretty damn close if you do. My wifes friend has one and it isnt all that fast from the get go. Once it gets going though it can move. If it were manual I would say hell no but with a AT I say you have a good chance if hes stock. But I still wouldnt race for paychecks.

he left on friday before we could set up a place. I know he's gonna talk smack on monday again tho'.
my neighbor has a 1999 or 2000 v6 accord auto and I've driven it, felt slow as molasses starting out but on the freeway had really good pickup. (SO quiet too - loved that!) Of course I didn't race it b/c it was my neighbors, but I got a semi-feel for it.
I just ask b/c he's auto, much heavier, and well it's a honda. he has no mods. well maybe his altezzas give 3hp.
yea I'm not too eager on bettin' paychecks. but he's talking all this smack like he can pull out 2 spark plugs and still win. screw this I wanna show him up

I wouldn't recommend betting checks either, unless you only make ten bucks a week. By the sound of it, this guy either has something that you don't know about, or he's going to be in for a surprise because I think an RS 5-speed could take him. Give him hell dude and tell us how it goes. :thumbsup

a barely modded RS can NOT take a v6 accord, especially if it's the coupe one.
