Default NSX vs Trans Am

I was coming home tonite and saw a car that looked pretty agressive just from the look of the lights so I got over in the left lane to let him come beside me to check out what it was and right when I got over in the left lane he comes by me doing round 80 and Im rollin at 60 or 65. So as soon I see him come by I hit it. He pulled me till like 110 and then I stopped him pullin. I shut it down at like 140. He was prolly 4 maybe 5 cars ahead of me. I know the guys dad who owns the NSX....he said it has some kind of $3000 exhaust system. My mods are slp lid, K&N, hooker cat back, and ascd ram air hood, and a4 with 3.23's. 1st off how long should it have taken me to even out his huge jump,how could I do from a punch at about 60mph, and from a dig.

yeah, too bad he paid about 80k for that 180 and 1/4 mile performance is about even w/ your 4th gen...

Should've gotten a Viper, imo w/ that kinda coin. @ least then he would've been able to obliterate you outright <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_images/icons/tongue.gif" />
