TL-P vs. NSX vs. Silvarado
so i was driving down on hwy 400 this afternoon going north from 401, and i saw a red NSX going at least 100mph while i was on the merger lane and then there's a black Chevy Silvarado catching up with the same speed
it's rare to see a NSX in toronto and i want to see who's driving, so i decided to catch up with him
took me a while to hit 125mph and couldn't get much closer with both, i am not sure what kind of silvarado is that but i never knew it can go up to 125mph
the traffic blocked the NSX and the truck and i caught up with them
went up to the NSX and beside him, a white guy is driving and he looked over and gave me a smile after he saw my big brake kit, and then the traffic clears then he hit it again
i tried to catch up but guess what? this is the NSX, he was pulling away but i started to catch up after 110mph since the VTEC kicks in at 4th gear
we went up to 125mph again and zipping around the lanes, the silvarado couldn't catch up with our handling and fell way behind
i had to exit and had to say goodbye to the NSX
it was fun to hang around with the NSX

people should always have a digital camera in their cars! That way, when needed can always show the video instead of stories 
I've never gotten the TL over 100mph...

Canadian Silverados are governed to 180 kph (approximately 112.5 mph).
Silverado SS can be made to go pretty fast. My friend's supercharged SS ran 12.83 at the track. If this one was keeping up with the NSX in acceleration, then it must've been a modified SS; otherwise it stands no chance.
I tried to mess with a white NSX around town (early model) and he wasn't having it.
No fun.

No fun.What type of NSX driver doesn't play around some? That's a crime.

Sam, I know your Wilwood setup is really nice man, but do you think thats what he noticed when you're flying down the 400 at 100 mph? He was probably smiling because he knew that his NSX would decimate our TL-Ps... maybe not though, it could have been those 6 piston calipers that got his attention!
