Default 1st "X" - Killed a TL?

So I was sittin' at a light, On a hill, waiting my turn...the light turns green and I hear this guy next to me hit the gas. I thought to myself, "aw, hell no!" And did the same. Ended up smokin' the guy, and caught a glipse of his car as he sheepishly turned right. A new Acura TL? I didn't get a look at the badges, but it had the square exhaust tips (a little help here guys?) I know I'd kill a NSX no prob, but a TL from a dig? I'm stock, is this possible?

ummm, a TL is a mid 14 second car when driven by the right person, and no, you will not take an NSX, not even with every bolt on we got out there, along with weight reductin. Maybe u are thinkin rsx? or tsx? but not an nsx.

he probably wasn't trying to race. A lot of people think I'm trying to race them just because I drive aggressively

You beat the driver, not the car. Even in auto form the new TL can get mid-14's, lower in 6-sp, and you'd have no chance against an NSX. Maybe you meant a TSX, Acuras lower priced four-door i-4 w/ fake duals that runs high 15's to low 16's, even an RSX-S is far from a sure win. Base RSX, sure win.

street racing bad! take it to the track before you kill someone. or at least look around first just dont jump on it because you hear someone hit it. come on be a little more responsable.
