S/C Tacoma 4wd versus Acura RSX Type S video

Yup, two Acuras taken down in one night by the S/C Tacoma:

"RIGHT CLICK, SAVE AS"

The second one was a 200 hp 6-speed Acura RSX Type S.

I love the part even *before* the race where he says "ill let him launch" a head start obviously doesn't help much either.

Sweet vid! It's funny though, the Tacoma even gave him a head start. Love the last RSX race, when the owner purchased it, he probably thought he was going to smoke everything on road. He met his match, S/C Tacoma on 32's

It's a 6.

My buddy is addicted to boost. Beyond the Tacoma, he also has a 1991 Supra turbo and a 1994 Supra twin turbo.

If you're into vids, here's a couple of great 2nd gear smokey burnouts he did in the '91 turbo:

RIGHT CLICK, SAVE AS.

Let me know what you think...

I really want a SC since I've been missing my Eclipse pretty bad;going to a truck that weighs not quite a 1000 more lbs and has over a 100 less ponies is taking some getting used to.

Well even with a S/C your 4Runner will still be a lot slower than your eclipse. When I jump into my 4Runner after driving my Celica, the 4Runner feels slow.

Anyways, the vid is pretty cool, if the RSX had the Hondata, it would have smoked the Taco.
