I think with a little bit of launch control the TSX would be nuts even if the V-Tech turned on a bit earlier it would benefit the performance. Im pretty sure Acura build the TSX more for family enjoyment and sport driving [cornering and such] oppose to being drag raced. .. thats my opinion anyway.

Not to mention every single thing about the car is designed pretty much the opposite of what you'd want for a drag car, not the least of which is lack of any bottom end torque. I'd say drag racing was about as much of a consideration as was driving underwater when they built the thing.

Uh, still any scion is a piece of crap compared to a tsx. it's like comparing a geo (granted, a quick one) to a tsx. IMO speed doesn't count that much, and if it did I'd get an '02 M3 and smoke all but 5% of the cars on the road.

I drove it to work... worked for 8 bloody hours with 1 hour for lunch. and made some freakin money. drove home, ate a delicious dinner, and slept.
My car can keep up with every car on the free way as long as they are going the speed limit.
and i must say.. i'm pretty damn cool.
