To make a long story short, were taking it to the track and there are like 15 of my friends betting on me to win. (its like a $200 pot) Do i stand a chance or should i bet on him?
Man you have some bitch ass friends...why are they your friends? Do any of your friends have a nitrous kit they can loan you for a few minutes? That's what we do around here. I have a whore kit that goes on every grudge racer I can find. It's fun as hell...to really rape the trash talker...and they never ever have to know.

Oh.. and VTEC, Which i thought was so great, is nothing more than an economy booster. All it does is allow the motor to only open the valves partially at Low rps for more torque and fuel economy, then when you rev them out it allows th valves to open completely and changes the timimg so it runs at full capasity. It is way overrated, it makes noise, burns oil, and does a whole lotta nothing. I have it in my other car, and after driving the Legend i realize what a load of crap it is.
My '05 TL doesn't have no stinking load of crap economy VTEC. I am surprised that such a sentiment is coming from a glorified honda driver (face it, they don't even call 'em Acura in Japan). In fact the reason they developed VTEC was to have a conservative, well mannered cam profile down low in the 'everyday' rpm band and a really evil cam profile for that top 3k rpm! Yeah there's single cam VTEC and all kinds of variants but let me make things simple...when I drive the TL I say
