My brother and a couple of our buddies decided to do a late night cruise down pch and when i mean late night i mean early morning around 2am-5am. We wanted to cruise cause our friend just recently got his SC 400 freshly painted and another just got a 2000 trans am that night.
here is a couple of pictures (have to love the red)
at THE HAT in brea before the cruise
here is my brothers 97 saleen, best friends 944 turbo, and my 92 nsx
I know most of you guys on prime are highly against racing but i assure you no one and i mean no one was on the street this late at night around 3-4am and i take full responsibility of my actions and myself being more of a cruising type than aggressive this night i wanted to see how the mighty NSX, mine is a 92 with short gears and type final drive, compared to the american muscle 5.7 trans am. Thats a whole 2.7 L more than mine so i wasnt too optimistic about going up to the beast.
Well long story short we never got the chance to line up at a light so we raced 3 times with me being 3rd and in vtec we finally ran. The results were pretty DEAD EVEN! the first run he got me by a bumper because he guned it before i did, the second run we were dead even, and the 3rd i came up a bumper because i stomped on it a little sooner than he did. We all met up at a gas station after all that and he told me that we hit around 130 mph.
I just wanted to share this experience with you guys and i hope i didnt offend any of you. Him and I are soon planning to take it to the track along with the 944 turbo.
