how is that possible
ok I love the sky but my prelude now with 220hp and about the same weight did the 1/4 in 15.3 (ok so I suck at driving) but how could I suck that much to have a sky with 170 hp get that close to me 15.5 (mid 15s?)
was I really that bad at driving it.. (ok so it was a horable launch your probably right, just bustin your ***** :thumbs: )

Motor Trend rated the S2000 @ 14.2 in the quarter and that's got the same HP as your Prelude.
Same weight and an extra 60HP should theoretically take a full sec. of the quarter. I think it's safe to assume the Saturn will be running mid if not low 15's if driven properly.

Fake mods
I once heard story about a guy headed to the beach - got up along side a car that had a huge blower sticking out of the hood, oversized chrome wheels, etc, the kind of appearance that just screamed 0-60 in 3 to 4 seconds. When the guy got to the beach this other car happened to be there as well - so he asked the driver of the tricked out car what was under the hood, the driver of the tricked out car openned the hood - and the blower went up with the hood - to reveal a 1.something liter stock 4 cylinder engine with probably 115 horsepower going down hill.
Got me to thinking it would be cool if you could make a fake wheelie bar - made of rubber or plastic or even inflatable that you coudl attach to the back of a car just to fake people out. Of course it would be funnier to put it on a car that did not appear to be capable of needing it.
