My Type-S vs TC

3335 Views 43 Replies 19 Participants Last post by  iGod
From 40 mph, go on the third horn. 3+ cars ahead by 90 the first time. We didn't count it because he started in 3rd gear......

Second time same as before but he started in 2nd gear as did I..... 2+ cars ahead by 90mph. All I had at the time was a AEM V2. He had some grounding wires to help with your guys electronic throttle or something like that.

I told him he should race the base RSX 5-speed that was next to me. It would have been a really good drivers race.

Honestly TC's can't hang with a Type-S. I not being a hater I think your guys cars are gorgeous looking vehicles, but performance wise they compare to the Honda Si or RSX base model.

First grounding wires really do nothing. They were originaly marketed as a stero upgrade to cut down on noise interference. Now because of the aftermarket craze there being marketed all of a sudden as a power adder, total bs. Anyways wait till the sc comes out then it will be a fair fight.
My race header goes on saturday.....
I'll still own a S/C TC.
Of course the tC can't hang with the Type-S. Compare the horsepower, 200 versus 160. Its like the tC racing a Civic (127hp for EX). Of course the tC is going to win. Why don't you go race WRXs and SRT-4s. We don't go to ClubRSX.com and brag about how fast the tC is going to be with the S/C and that we will be able to beat a Type-S.
o boy, not this again. end it now, please.
Yeah. No need to stir up another one of these.

BTW, my tC owned a kid on a bike today. He pedaled as quick as he could, but I still had him by 5+ car lengths within the first few seconds.

I rule.

He was loaded man. He had 12 gears, fat tires that gave him crazy traction, and the rig was set up simply for racing: only one seat!
2
o man those push out horsepower

did he have a card next to his wheel so everytime he moved the pedal you could hear a flipping sound ? I want one of those it sounds nice.

Let me get this strait. The race was from a rolling 40 mph start? why not from a stop?

It takes less driver skill so it's usually a better indication of machine vs. machine instead of driver vs. driver.

i was being sarcastic since, ppl have been saying forever that the type R was coming but we know it never will just like the S/C will never come out


EDIT: the type R is different then the type s.....it has a different engine and a whole bunch of other goodies
