Ironically enough, after I typed this thread up last night, I left to go to my girlfriends, and a 4th Gen Prelude is going the same way as I am. I am not sure if it is VTec or not.. I saw the rims he had, so if I could see some pics of stockers, I could tell you for sure...
Anyway, we get stopped at a light; at green, we both take off, and like the Tc showdown, I really wasn't suspecting any type of race. He accelerates pretty good, much more than just a casual drive start from a light. The next light, the same thing: he speeds off, then slows down, and I catch up. I am not giving it full throttle yet, but at the next light I decide to throwdown.
As the opposite direction lights turn from green to yellow, I can see him revving/ creeping forward, and so I shift into first and slowly start to rev, and GREEN! I drop it, get a sweet lauch, pull ahead half a car. He is right there, but after my shift into 2nd, he starts to slip back but is still keeping up. Third gear and I pull cleanly away, but have to slow down because of another light. I make a right turn, as does he, and I slow down for him to catch up, as I wanted to give him a thumbs up, but he won't side up, and eventually he turns off. I wanted to show Prelude support! It was a good match!
So the last month has give me more races than the first 9 months of ownership. How interesting!
