I was at a red light. A v6 Honda accord (I think it is the 2012 model) pulled up. This caucasian dude is blasting rap music and and reving at me. I was like ok. Light turn green and the dude took off. My buddy said, "he want to race you." At this point that accord is at least 10 cars ahead. I decided put my car in S mode and lets it rip. I caught up and passed the dude. he tried but could not catch up as I get farther away. I stop at the next light. He pulled up and keep looking at me. My buddy and I just laughed in our car as this guy is still reving for another race.

Seriously, I dont really like to race on the street because it is dangerous but man...people.

BTW, that tune really does the work.

Yes they are trouble makers...but to be honest those V6 accords are no joke with simple mods

Good thing you put it in s mode. Probably couldn't have taken him otherwise....

I like Hondas. They can be a lot of fun.

It's not the car that people hate, just the douche canoes that drive them and think they are faster than they are.

I cant say much for Honda but I have built, raced and owned some Mazdas that have pushed 500rwhp... my current DD is a '12 Speed3 pushing 330+whp. It'll jump my SN95 off the line and get out a few car lengths everytime, but the Mustang reels it in soon thereafter.

it has an engine!
I don't think enthusiasts hate Honda. I don't like the attitude of the Honda owners that mod their cars.

Not saying that you wouldn't win in a straight fight....but if he was legitimately 10 car lengths ahead before you got on it, there is NO WAY you'd easily catch up and pass him until WELL over 100mph, if at all. Those Accord V6s should be close to 300hp and don't weigh any more than an ecoboost.

He wanted to race you again because he had backed way off by the time you decided to play. He wanted a straight up race, at least that's the way I see it.

Best part of this story? YOU are the one who did the "ricer flyby."
