95 ProbeGT vs. Del Sol
Hi everybody, it's been a while since my last kill post.
Anyway, about 30 or so cars showed up for a local meet here in Lansing, so we proceeded to the race spot. I lined up against this black Del Sol. He had i/h/e, and this weird front end. It was a light, one-piece thing that replaced the whole front end, and opened up by swinging forward, much like on a Viper. Anyway, we lined up and I got a pretty good launch. I shifted wonderfully into 2nd, but granny-shifted into 3rd. I still managed to keep 1.5 lengths on him the whole time, so it was okay.  My second race was against a 5th gen Prelude. I got the better launch and jumped to a half car lead through first, but then I missed second and watched my rpm drop to 3k  , so we agreed to race again. By the time we lined up, we got a call that cops were on their way and we bugged out. I want a rematch against the Prelude, and I put the word out. I'll let you all know if we line up again.-Later |

Not bad. The Del Sol's can be quick since they are fairly light. Just depends on which model.
The lude might be a different story though. Let us know if you get to meet up with him again.....

del Sol Coupe(lbs.) MT/AT S - 2302/2388 = Equivelant to the Civic DX Si - 2414/2474 = Equivelant to the Civic EX VTEC - 2522/NA = Equivelant to the Civic Si Civic Coupe (lbs.) MT/AT DX - 2359/2405 = Equivelant to the del Sol S HX - 2370/2445 EX - 2513/2560 = Equivelant to the del Sol Si Si - 2612/NA = Equivelant to the del Sol VTEC By eqivelant I mean engine wise. I didn't compare hatches because there is no del Sol hatch.
