It's almost a guaranteed race if you are at a stoplight with a Acura sedan driver next to you.

This morning on the way to work cracked an Acura CL Type S and this evening going out to grab a bite to eat jumped all over an Acura TL.

The Type S was kinda a roll on race after we both took off spiritedly from a light and realized what was going on. I got about a truck length and was slowly pulling when we shut down up around 90 or so I guess. The driver would not come back up to me and stayed about a car length off the rear bumper. We got stopped at another light first in line and they didn't jump when the light went green. This person actually realized they couldn't beat me unlike the last Acura CL Type S, that kept trying, I raced in my old blue truck.

The TL wasn't really a full blown kill but, it was getting ugly. We were both at a light waiting for it to go green kinda inching up. I knew they wanted in front of me to get in the turn lane about 3/4 mile up the road. The cross turning traffic that had the light first screwed me over because they kept coming through after the light had turned red so I had to wait and the TL got out to a 2-3 car lead. I put my signal on and tried to get around them but, ran outta room. I bet they didn't like that a full size 4*4 pickup was pulling on them that hard though. I had reeled back the lost lengths and woulda went barrelling around them but, ran outta room and had to get back over. I really couldn't believe how hard the truck was pulling on them and it actually got worse the faster we went, like the car was just running outta steam.

Well, that was my excitement for the day. These races were relatively safe for street races, both on the same big road with no entrances or exits where we went and clear road ahead. Stay safe guys.

 

Nice kills. Did they have a big coffee can muffler or where they stock. I seek out the ones with the bigger mufflers. I know there are sleepers out there, but I love killing.

Nah, just stock. I don't seek out races but, if a decent oppurtunity arises I have a hard time turning them down.

If I saw you at a light I'd probably race you too, even though I'd get killed.

Nice Truck!

 

those tl's are nice. lots of room in them and the ride is awsome. they're suppose to run in the 14's also. good kills X

 

I know exactly what you mean, I used to work with a guy with an acura integra, spent $10,000+ on it and all he can say for it is...a 15 second car with neon lights that flash to his music. He drove like a maniac, spun out trying to race someone in traffic on the freeway with 3 other people in the car.

 

Anything can happen on the street. I have taken out a cobra or two. One of them just couldn't hook up. Prior to some of my mods I was grip and go. A lot of people called BS on my kill. I just reply that anything can happen. So if you see me give it a shot. Then we can go have a beer or something and talk about our trucks.

Smoke

 

Yeah, my sister has a TL and it's a nice car for sure. The seats are a little hard is my only gripe. I'm gonna tell her that I whipped up on one....in my truck.

Smoke - you buying the beer?

 

Acura=The Royalty of RICE!!

They are nice for sure. Wanted my wife to get one but she ended up with a Maxima instead.
I used to run into a guy on the way home from work once or twice a week. He would zip throgh the turns like a nut. We both would end up getting on the freeway at the same ramp, that was the only spot I could keep up with him at.
Since installing the turbo I have not seen him on my rides home.
Good kills man!

 

You know it!!!!
