You probably would have killed him from a dead stop but those preludes pick up pretty good once they get going.

In one of my magazines That body style of prelude with the V-tech engine beat a Z-28 camaro around a circle track when it was first road tested. cause of its ability to hold speed through the corners.

I have seen preludes run low 14's with
bolt-ons and a good driver. Take off 4 tenths for the crappy air where I live and you have a high 13 sec. car.

All in all I think that the prelude is a respectable sports car.

Im gonna have to quote the fast and the furious here........"Any real racer will tell you that a win is a win weather its by an inch or a mile"
