I'm not a TSX owner, I'm a 3G TL owner and I know most won't go out of their way to search for this in the TSX fourm so I'm posting it here too.

I drove a TSX today and showed a friend how to make a U-Turn with the car on a NARROW two lane mountain road. Hope you guys enjoy!


Ok So the first video below is me showing him how to do a U-Turn in a two-lane road. If video doesn't play correct just refresh page.




In this video I guess he wanted me to go sideways for a close up haha. If video doesn't play correct just refresh page.

 

OK, and?

 

lol... too much time on your hands huh?

 

I have a few requests as I am curious to see what my TL could do without risking damaging it:

A. 180 in TL, and don't stop, starting going right when you turn around
B. High speed reverse to moving forward
C. 360 while firing sub-machine guns out the window

Mike

 

A. Have already done that a few times LOL
B. Have done that too
C. I'm not that good bro

 

HUH?

 

I was about to try the reverse 180 thing but the parking lot had those little islands in it so I thought better.

Poor TSX Rental...

 

Read what I posted in your thread.

 

cool

 

I read, I just find it unnecessary to do in a car like an Acura :P I don't think I'll ever be doing a 180 degree turn like that. And yeah, I've done it in my old Volvo before, I learned my lesson after my tire finally gave out and blew one time.

 

lol kids these days

 

No wonder dealers these days don't like to give out loaners to youngters because people like you are abusing the car.

OK, put on my flame suit.

 

Sterotype buddy...If it was my 32 year old who taught me I bet you wouldn't be saying the same thing. It's ok we all have sterotypes. I'll even give you a lil rep to show you that I don't plan to flame you

Wow! sounds like you did it ALL the time Well I don't do it all the time Actually very rarely. I was going to give you rep to ease the pain, but I already gave you some so I can't

 

Maybe you should try out for stunt driver for movies.

 

Yeah, I'm not that good yet.

 

I think to do that correctly, you have to be going 53mph, no ??

TSX OG's will know what I'm talking about...

 

Does that take you Back to the Future?

 

I think thats 88 MPH and reqiures 1.22 Gigawatts

 

Maybe it just takes Greenie back to the 60's

 

i did that on my way to work this morning

 

Damn, you owned a TSX and don't even know the significance of 53mph ?? Or upside down swaybars ??

Heck, this smilie doesn't even make sense anymore...

 

Makes sense to me.....

 

Whiskers hasn't been to the TSX section since the day he discovered ramblings which was the day after he got his TSX.

Come to think of it whiskers hasn't been much of anywhere since he discovered ramblings.

 

There is a TSX section

You sure thats the right thread?

If Dan Martin went 53MPH around a turn with his cracked bushing's he's be dead right now.

 

I was looking for the right thread, but came across this and felt like bringing some old TSX memories back

 

That is the dumb way of doing a u-turn. And a great way to flatspot your rear tires like mad.

 

He needs to use the handbrake more...

Oh, no worries about the flat spots... The first 5 words in his post were "I'm not a TSX owner"... You just looked at the pretty pictures, didn't you ??

 

Actually I did read it. But it didn't process in my head still that it was his friends car and not his. But still, I wouldn't treat a friends car like that.
