But the problem is most R owners knows what R can do and cannot do and most are modest and realistic about it. He just gives R owners, and perhaps, import enthusiasts in general a bad name.

Maybe he or she's referring to faster cornering speeds or tracking then a stock Cobra or Camero. I've seen plenty of R out do pony cars on the track except they could get killed in the straights. As for NSX being faster. I remember couple NSX's and couple R getting into it a yr or so at local track..where the NSX was fast but on small track the Type R was all over them..and it became more of who was the better driver. I remember one NSX sliding of the track and get mud and grass in his very nice red NSX. I think every type of Honda was there except for lux. type cars and the S2K because the one that was coming apparently hit a bridge coming up from Lousiana totaling it after only have it for week because it basically just got away from him in the wet stuff.

I have to agree with you RACER-X. I'm always going at the same track! It's a small one with many turns... At the beginning, many muscle cars (Camaro Z28, Mustang GT) were showing up for the free lapping day! But I think they got tired of having Civic and ITR sticking to their bumper loll On a small track the HP advantage is quickly turning to a weight/breaking/handling advantage!

Just my .02$

Techinacally thats a Acura, not a honda, in the US.
Not to say the guy selling his ITR isn't a fool, but as far as Z28, and mustangs, it all depends on the year. 1999-02 of either will smoke a ITR.
