    He took off the line first before I caught back up... that's about it.. Had a talk before the race and a honk and a flash after to acknoledge... and I forgot to switch traction control and aircon off Dammit...

    Euros need the high RPM band and speed to catch up... It worked against the Rexes and the Rs.... P.S This doesn't apply V8s aka new BA Falcons V8s and VY Commodore V8s... They got twice as much torque and from a lower RPM...

    Euro has 140kw but is underrated. Euro does 0-100 in around 7.6 seconds.

    7.6?? Shit, VTiR Preludes must do it in less than that.... which is bullshit, because VTiRs do 0-100 in 8.1 at best, and Euros are easily choppable.

    I smoke the same 6sp Euro everyday at Mascot on General Holmes drive....

    Just because you beat the same Euro every day doesn't mean the 7.6 time is crap. Honda itself quotes 7.9. Others - including people on this site - have achieved less than 7.9 measured with RSM and G Sensor.

    You seem to have a problem with an accord euro beating your Prelude - is it so far out of the realms of possibility?! I think not.
