Had some fun last friday on Interstate 99 outside Altoona PA with a new yellow Integra Type R. That car was quick! I was able to hang with him but I have to give acura credit for that kind of power out of just 1.8 liters of displacement. He looked pretty impressed with the looks of my car and when he came up beside me he gave me the look like

We were around 90 mph for a good bit and the other cars on the highway were in awe. was a good 10 miles of driving

sounds like fun, you could take him with your numbers though

without nitrous i couldn't.. i tried and the cars would not pull away from each other. just hung right there as he accelerated i followed but he could not get away and i could not pass him.

he must have been modded

"he must have been modded "

Nope. Those things are that quick stock.

[Guest]

I used to live there. i worked for Darnoc's tone zone for 4 years. if i had the bottle full I would have toasted him very easily. i just wish i had a motor that would buzz to 9,000 rpm

StreetConcepts: What have you done to your car to make it so fast? What kinds of mods do you have? Could a Stock V6 Cougar beat a Stock Type R? Reason being there will be plenty of them in my hometown over the May long weekend, and throughout the summer. I would like to know what I'm getting into if i decide to race.

 

[FuzzyRag]

lol...stock cougar vs a stock ITR? If I wanted a sure fire bet, I'd bet on the ITR. Craig has lots of mods, and he hung w/ a stock ITR. Their gaw-awful fast for what they have.

 

[Guest]

really? where you live now? i think last year my dad and i were looking at a decked out cougar and it must have been yours cause it was at darnacs or whatever, i was looking to get a mid 90's awd talon and i saw your car there and liked it

If you let him put about 8k miles on that car, he'll pull away from you then. These engines benefit a lot for a good break in. I didn't believe it at first, but the car is getting quicker now that it has 6k miles on it.
