Griffin is that your car? That shit is hot!
Nah, but I want a red one so bad I can taste it. I have always wanted a conquest tsi. They are very nice cars. The red is hot fire. Personally I think they are a hell of a sports car. Way advanced for its time.

AWD doesn't make a car handle better, that comes from the suspension and rigidity of the chassis, but the AWD provides an advantage over RWD by allowing the car to pull itself out of a turn in a way that a RWD car couldn't.

The GT-R's AWD system works by only putting power to the front wheels when the rear ones are slipping, so that it can pull itself out of a sticky.... in most cases slick situation.



PS.
Nascar is a joke, F1 and Le Mans is where its at!

shit. i forgot about your awesome driving skills. so sorry about that. i can't believe i also totally forgot that the worth of a car is only based on its ability to travel 1320 feet in at time that is acceptable by you.

huh?
it was just a comparison because the dude said you dont fuck with honda.
i have nothing against the nsx or any honda really, i just thought that was a rediculous statement so i replied. and my facts were correct, so where is my error?
and my driving skills?
what else did you mean by drive one and see?
im sure it handles beautifully but back to my original point
you can fuck with hondas
because take hondas best car
and put it next to
an sti
an evo
a skyline
a supra
and
there is my point. it was all comparative.
so there is no need to get your panties in a bundle over your beloved nsx.

saracasm is your friend. I'm not saying the nsx is the end all to all cars but everyone just says they're overpriced and slow and they've never driven one. Sure quite a few people have run shit times with them but i've seen any other car run 1 or more seconds slower than what the car is capable of. There's been plenty of people crack 12's with an NA2 and crack 13's with an NA1.

all of you forgot the #1 reason the R34 kicked ass was for it's compueter controlled 4WD steering buckled with AWD not so much its suspension. the three together is what made it unstoppable.

And what the hell is AWD suspension? do you mean like double wishbone or independent rear suspension?
