Default Just wondering what NSX owners are thinking when...

The NSX lines up against a ITR at a light, initiate a race with a car they thing is just N/A with boltons, then get eaten by 4+ cars thru the end of 3rd gear.

It depends on whether I'm driving my NSX or my ITR.

YOU would be in the NSX, and I would be driving the ITR that's ahead of you. Just like in that pic.

I think Ken was implying that he *is* an NSX owner, but he also has a type r... Allowing him to be either car in your first post.

I would think good job on building your car.

I had many of these instances when I had my integra that was SC at 10psi. It was fun to race mustangs and other cars and watch there mouth drop as you pulled away. The only problem I had was getting off the line; the tires would spin all the way into third if I wasn't careful. I think you have a wrong opinion of NSX owners many of us have done what some of you are doing now. We are not a bunch of stuck up snobs that think are cars are the best because they cost more. Most of us are enthusiast just like you. What we don't like are people who don't have any NSX experience magazine racing. I've owned many cars and I can't think of any that are as fun as my NSX.

Well, I would be thinking that thank God i have a NSX and not a ITR, even if the ITR smokes me...just like if a civic smokes me.

*You don't buy a NSX to be the fastest car on the road...thats what BBSC is for

EDIT: I can't spell

I would think, with my voice dripping with sarcasm and mild levity, "That sucked. My first foray into street racing and I get my *** handed to me." Then I would think, "Man, I HAVE GOT to look at that ITR."

Really, as you get older you learn that you win some and lose some. Losing a street race isn't that big a deal. Now, someone catching me in a corner or under braking would be a big deal!

I'd be thinking "Wow, you don't see many 500 HP Integras, that's pretty wild!"

Unfortunately with a 300HP Integra, you would be the one who was eaten. Bump it a hundred ponies and it would be pretty even. Push much more than that and you could enjoy me in your rear view. Until then... just remember that you're not the only one with forced induction, my friend.

If you need a car to get bitches, you obviously have small ***** syndrome and are using your overpriced car to cope with it.

Not if that what we payed for it a lower % of our total dispendable income than what you payed for your car...it would make you in the 'overpriced' (by %) car.

...not saying you did or did not, just giving something to ponder.

dispendable income
In keeping with nature of this forum, I think you're meaning "disposable" income?

hey duckey, I'm thinking that if you're into calling women bitches, then you're probably the one phallically challenged.

you may get some *** because of you car, but the money i'd win racing lets me take your girl out. So i think it might even out in the long run.

Well, you know what they say... something like "How do you win a thousand bucks racing? By spending ten thousand bucks to do it."

Fine. We had an early snow at the end of November and early December was cold, so it stuck around (that's early for us). Last week or so has been warmer, so it all melted, just got a dusting yesterday. My winter tires are on my ITR.

I'm curious to know how you posted your car w/ the city in the background as your avatar?
I started by taking a regular 35 mm photo, downtown on the lakefront at daybreak, just as the sun was peaking over the horizon, then had it scanned. (I did this years ago, before digital camera quality was any good. You can start with your digital photo.) I shrunk it using Paint Shop Pro, then used some effects there to clear it up and make it look a bit better. There are instructions on how to submit a photo as your own avatar on NSXprime in the "NSXprime discussion" forum, title of the topic is "Avatars are here!".

First off I dont date or **** "bitches." "Bitches" are nothing but immature high school girls who like rice and neon windshield washers.

Second I have no problems getting real women. Unlike you who has to slander and collectivley group the women together with the "bitches" because you get rejected by real women because of your **** poor attitude towards them.

Assuming I have an NSX and you are saying that the money you are winning is going to let you take my girl out? Dude if I can throw 85Gs away on a car I think I can take my woman out to places you couldnt afford after working and "winning" for a year.
