MAX/ALT VS. CL guys, read this!

hey yall.... easy guys..... who cares if CLs are faster than MAX/ALT or the other way around..... we are adults(i guess, at least 18+ are adults) here, dont talk like some elementry kids like "oh i am better, bla bla bla" IT'S OK IF ONE IS FASTER THAN OTHER!!!!!

The fact is, there gotto be someone faster than you, so why bother.... The whole point of these forums are to enjoy our cars, try to solve problems, etc..... not message war claiming who can beat who...... just take it easy guys.....

If yall are soo concern about who can beat who.... or if you can kick everyone's ass.... well, why not go get a Camaro SS or Vette... there gotto be a reason that we get our Nissans/Acuras/or whatever..... why not feel proud of wat we have, SHARING info, instead of flame war, which prove nothing but hate..... thats all i gotto say!

yeah and for those who use magazine times and say the TL-S is faster, two words

COMPTECH HEADERS. Honda/Acura, as we all know, has been passing around experimental TL-S to flood magazines.

Well they both got the same 260 hp engine and the cl weighs less so it makes sense to say that its faster.

you'd reconsider that statement if you was me. Even though I have a S but I still have respect for the P.
Laser is one crazy street racing mofo . He raced his friend's Civic hatch the other nite. I couldn't line up with them so I started about 3 cars late. All the way to 100 and couldn't catch them

Who here in the NY/NJ area has seen the Underdog Yugo at Englishtown? I haven't seen that guy in a couple years, but the last time I saw him run, he was in the low 14's. That would beat most posters on this board

I've said it a million times......our cars are nice, and fast for what they are, but there is no way they should be considered race cars. A CL-S cost 30-32K new + another 2-4k in mods just to get into the mid 14s. If you want to go fast, buy a mustang, camaro, trans am, vette, viper, saleen, m3.........ya get my drift.

I'm down all the way

All I got to say, I agree with LASER1180, cuz it is true that we're being immature with all this competion dilemma, well just stay true to the max and respect others

hey cl fwd speed how do you like the headers i am thinking of putting them on. i talked to acura and it will not void the warranty. so did you notice a nice difference in the car? and have you had a chance to run the car with the mods down the 1/4.???

No doubt Nitrotiger!!!!

Yeah you'll feel a big difference. My best time was 14.2 at first with the headers. but when I gate shifted I got 13.9 which is 14.0 flat on a 1/4 mile.
but yeah don't gate shift a lot cuz it'll mess up your auto tranny... with out a doubt dude you will like it. 14.7 stock hey you can probably run a better time than me when you get you headers
