Killed an NSX while pulling my trailer!
Towing the tire trailer home from Divisionals this weekend and end up behind a red NSX. The trailer is small enough that from the front of the car you'd never see it. The NSX lights it up at a couple stop lights and I just follow him to the next one until we get to the last light before the highway. This time I pull up next to him and drop the hammer on green. I didn't get completely by until the top of third but I wish I could have seen his face when he got passed by an RX-7 pulling a trailer!
That would have shocked the crap out of me!

Would've been even more funny if the NSX was leaving from Divisionals too ... get beat at the auto-x and then at a light without the extra weight. That's gotta hurt.
DamonB, how did you do at Divisionals?

HA! A similiar thing happened to me with an old 75 Trans Am I had. I had a small uhual trailor on the back, some guy in a mustang raced me, and I still beat him. Cars with about 500lbs/ft torque are fun 
Good kill

That's some funny shiznit, Manute.
Reminds me of the time I smoked a riced out civic (triple decker shogun warrior wing) with my bright yellow donut on.....it was on the rear passenger where he could get a good look. Suffice it to say that my torsen lsd wasn't quite up to the task
your friend 'til the end,
Spud.

RX7/trailer
NSX

?Oh, and no.
Steve Kan recently instructed at an NSX track day at MSR. There were supercharged NSXs set up for track use with suspension and brakes. Steve had my friend Alan's FD on the track (ported motor, intake, dp, high flow, cb, FMIC, Power FC, tokicos/eibachs, first turbo bad) and was destroying all of the NSXs. He tore **** up, and I think he lapped quite a few. Needless to say, the NSX owners were floored. I'll get him to post more details here.
