2003 Acura TL-S (Stock) Vs. 2003 Honda Accord Coupe V6 (Auto)...
So..what do you think? Anybody race them before...possibly off the line..?
A guy in my school is calling my car a ***** car..cuz i don't floor that ****..(it's a TL...dun wanna **** it over)...i mean he gives me respect for having one..but then he hella wants to "settle" something..besides..he thinks he's a racer..
So..even though this is a TL forum..let's put that all aside..and tell me your real opinion..don't favor a TL cuz you have one..just tell me based on stats that you kno or maybe experiences that you have had.
Also..if i was to race him off the line..i dunno when to shift and stuff..can you tell me when?..considering that it's a Sport shift..i think i'll use it..
Will auto or sportshift be better?..
I will turn off VSA and AC off too..anything else?
FINALLY..is flooring it/ redlining it bad for the car?
Sorry it's full of newb questions..but hopefullly you'll be able to help me guys. thanks.

If he's been running premium fuel .. it can go either way ... stock Accord V6 autos run neck and neck w/ a TypeS ... it's all about how launches first and best.
redlining the car is fine
since this race is probably gunna make you a little nervous.. just use D5 ... let the 'puter do the work for you, you'll gain very little from "gate-shifting" or "SS-ing"

But on another note, if you don't want to race, DON'T! What do you have to prove?
That you can get a bigger ticket then him? Forget it, we all know the TL-S is faster!
Get some mods, then race him!

An Accord V6 AUTO will NOT go neck and neck with a TL-S??? The Accord V6 MANUAL will go neck and neck but the AUTO is about a second slower from 0-60.
