'92 Si vs. '02 Stratus R/T - Honda Prelude Forum

Preyluder · 11-26-2002, 08:56 PM

I was out to eat with my friend tonight, and when we were leaving, we noticed a person that goes to my school that recently bought this '02 Stratus R/T. He has Intake and Exhaust with a slapstick auto. I motioned him to come up to me, and when he did, I politely asked him if he wanted to race. He was game, so we got onto a highway, he wanted to go from a 20 kick. It wasn't a very populated highway, so we were able to take our time. We got on the highway, and there weren't any cars around, so we lined up at 20 mph, he honked us off, and we were gone. I immediately started pulling, and kept pulling to the tune of about 3 carlengths. He just honked as he flew past me after I had already began to brake at about 120. I think I made him sad.

Does anyone know any specs. on these cars?

According to Edmunds for a 2-door 5-speed: Hey guys

"It's not astoundingly fast, as our 7.4-second 0-to-60-mph and 15.7-second (at 90 mph) quarter-mile times attest (check out the Performance Worksheet for more numbers), but it has a long, flat torque band and a guttural snarl that should satisfy most people who test-drive the car"

interesting...thought those things were slower than that.

Well, it was pretty slow. Maybe it was more than 3 carlengths, I dunno, but I beat him bad.

I must say, for a chrysler and being a 6cyl., it didn't sound too bad. It was definately loud. But..... it is a domestic.
