It might get a jump on you off the line, but you should be able to run it down shortly thereafter

Tell your 'friend' to be careful and if he wants to race, head out to Cayuga (aka Toronto Motorsports Park) ...

Ooops. I was referring to an Acura TL-Type S. That is what my mother has, a 2009. Regular TL - Camaro will take it. I must have been sleeping upon writing this.

Had to be a 6MT too, the 5AT TL has an infamous power sapping automatic transmission that insistently does early shifts, even at WOT, and therefore after each shift you are even more out of the power band than the previous shift.... The TL auto also has an infamously high 3rd gear and is well out of its power band at that point too.

Toyed with the previous Type S (the much better looking model-Honda really needs to re-think their hideous tech look-it sucks) and I have to say I was a bit frustrated at how difficult is was to pull away. (Now I know how those guys in the older mustang GT's feel LOL) I have a 2LT 6MT RS. I was faster but just barely. Might be a good contest.
