Default IS it possible for a slow car to beat a faster car :O

So I raced and beat my Friends H22 91 accord with bolt ons and a final drive built *** tranny this thing is lighter than my car it ran a 14.8.
198WHP 145TQ


I have a heavier 97 prelude Euro R swap and intake with a JUN ecu, and exaust his suspension is also better than mine .
174HP 143.5TQ


and he is a good driver

Wait when was it possible to chip a OBD II ecu? And ive looked all through my JUN catalog and pricing sheet and dont see a 97+ Prelude ecu program available...

Are you sure its not the synthetic blinker fluid or muffler bearing that did it?

The Accord has a "built *** tranny"? I know Preludes are pigs but 3000lbs.? I suppose since you've already been flamed on several posts, I won't add fuel to fire but everything you said sounds both unrealistic and ridiculus.

it could be the fact that his tranny's gear ration has 1 and 2nd as the longest and the rest get shorter . or the fact that my car revs to 8300 and his revs to stock 7800 who knows. just thought others would have insight I didnt expect to get "flamed" but this is honda-tech I guess I should know better. Oh gee my life is over I got flamed somebody get me a shrink cause my life is over now boo hoo
