Default Gran Prix owning an RSX

Last friday night I was at Race City Motorsports Park for the opening night of Secret Street.

here is one of the races I recorded.

the RSX must have shown up with a club or something because there was 8 or 9 of them there.

keep in mind peeps....... it was like -3 deg celcius outside. soooo the track was cold ( no traction)

lol ..... whats funny was of all the RSX's that ran that night (before i left.....was freezing my ass off lol ) that one was the quickest. Traction definatly an issue .
there was a couple of RSX's that were spinning though second gear.



and ohh yeah i like RSX's as well

RSX still has a crappy trap speed, I don't think its capable of much more.
He definately isn't going to beat a GTP

That may have been a Grand Prix GT which is NOT supercharged. Reason I say that is I cannot see the normally clearly visible GTP badges on the door. Not only that 14.5 in cold weather is slow for a GTP even in stock form.

I own a 14.4 second GT and a 12.6 GTP so I am quite familiar with how these cars run.
