Unhappy beat by an AV6... WTF

omg it was terrible guys. i dunno what this dood had but he also had 2 passangers, i was by myself. we were on the interstate n i was in 3rd gear, we were like right by each other then i just decided to punch it. he didn't at first so he got behind me, switched lanes, and hit it. i heard an intake at least but thats all i could tell he had, no exhaust. we were even until about 85 then he started to pull on me
i thought it would be an easy kill but he got me by like 3/4 of a car.
the other mods he had were black out headlights with HIDs, and lowered. i was gonna post n see if the dude is on av6.com but its down.
im so confused rite now

Badazz, you are now officially banned from this site. How can you lose to an AV6 with 2 passengers?

I have destroyed a lot of accords with or without passengers. Oh well, you win some you lose some. Now we all know that Mike's car is faster than yours.:p

ur right, i shouldnt be allowed to post here anymore. i've disgraced you all: thinking it was a stock accord with only a drop, HIDs and black out headlights. thats a helluva sleeper

this wasnt an ordinary accord, he must have had headers or sprayed or somethin. i've beaten accords before too, but the one with passangers walked me.

and no, mikes car still is slow. i beat him like this accord beat me....:p

yeah, you gotta watch out for those accords man, they are damn fast Just kidding.......

Anyways, I've heard something about the gearing being different for the Av6 at highway speeds, which might have accounted for the difference, but I'm not exactly sure. If you have a TL-P and he has intake and even headers, I could see how it would have been a somewhat close race. But if you have a TL-S, he must have had some major stuff under the hood! I have an AV6 with Tl-S exhaust, comptech headers, intake, and UR pulleys and I can edge out my buddy's Tl-P on the highway and from a start. I tried it with my friend's TL-S and it didn't turn out quite so nicely

Accord SE edition only comes with an inline 4 engine. There is no Accord V6 special edition.

Other way around. The accord gets the least gains...while the type-S gets the most. It's all about the initial potential of the engine it's being bolted on to.

If he beat you by less than a car he definetly has I/H/E/P.

My friend has an AV6 with 80 shot (wet) /intake/exhast. Off the line I beat him by almost a car. Then when he hits nitrous in 2nd gear. All I hear is peeling out... He even chirps hard in 3rd! Beats me by 2 car lenths @100mph.
