I know the owner of the Prelude and its a badass street car.

But trap speeds do not win races ET does and the guys with Fbodies going 143 are much faster ET wise.

Thats a given

The prelude is limited by the shitty FWD, which in my mind is its only downside.

Honda's are good cars but at the drag strip i think most of us on this site would rather see a f body or vette or anything RWD leaving front wheels up off the line,It gives that Daaaamn factor from the start to the finish + the sound of a V8 spinning up to 6,000 7,000 rpm or more

I don't hate Honda, I just hate FWD. One of my favorite rides is my RWD Honda (CBR1100XX). You have to love high 10sec 1/4 times AND almost 40mpg. It seems much more efficient than my GTO or Silverado.

Bikes Rock!!!

But screw the MPG! I'm one from the muscle car era. I'd love my next engine to be the new 481 CID Warhawk. Check it out...
