Just a short story, but I find if pretty funny...We didn't start from a dig...I was driving home from church on a nice sunny Sunday afternoon. I was at a red light, and beside me was this somewhat old guy (looks like the midlife crisis type) driving a PT Cruiser 
I didn't realize that it was the GT version at the time...But the dude kept looking at me..I wasn't sure if he was checking out my car or...me 
Green light, so we started driving normally...He took off a little on me, and let off, so I tried to fish and punch it a little on 2nd gear and let off just as my nose got ahead of his..Wasn't sure if he was going to take the bait or not, since my car is still on winter mode and it looks like a beater! Dirty, with some rust spots, rolling on stock Lude wheels and winter tires..BUT he took the bait. I guess he just wanted to show off
All of a sudden I hear his turbo spooled By the time I realized that, his ass was already in front of my car..It jumped FAST. So I just gave it all I have, full throttle in 2nd gear at about 50km/h or so. Good thing I wasn't that far away from VTEC (Thank God for M2A4 transmission!!!!) VTEC kicked in, but his ass is still in front of me...That's when I noticed the "GT" and the "2.4L turbo" emblems. SH*T!
Still on 2nd gear VTEC, I was hanging on to him the whole time. He ran out of breath (seems like he got up the redline fast, or the redline is just not that high. Probably both), so he upshifted while I was still at around 6500RPM or so. I just kept going at it. By the time I hit 7600RPM or so my nose was right by his front door, I went for 3rd and I hung on to him some more. The CB just won't let go of this one! I can't deny the fact that I was very surprised..And at the same time quite pleased.
We ran out of road, because another intersection was quickly approaching...Got a red light, the old dude went beside me, rolled down his power window while I tried to roll down my cranking window that made this loouud squeaking noise
Old guy: "Is that thing boosted?"
Me: "What?"
Old guy: "Do you have a turbo in that thing?"
Me: "Turbo? Nah.."
Old guy: "What are you running then?"
Me: "Just a stock Honda motor man.."
Old guy: "V6?!" ( )
Me: "Nope! 4 cylinder!"
Old guy: "NAWS?"
Me: " *laughs* I don't do NOS"
Old guy: "Bullshit. My car has turbo and a big engine. Why is it not faster than your car?!"
Me: " *shrugz* i don't know man. Just the way Hondas are made I guess? Or maybe it's just the driver thing.."
Green light came on, we couldn't go at it again because there were cars right in front of us.
So I left him pondering how his "big" 2.4L boosted engine can't take on an old rusted out Honda family sedan running a stock motor......
Hey, my H22A4 is bone stock, so technically I wasn't lying about the "stock motor" fact
