Are the older nsx usually that quick or do yall think he had some extra's. Either way it was good times.

I stomped one in my old LS1 F-body from a highway roll. They are nothing special in the speed department. What they do have going for them is the fact that they set a lot of automotive mile-markers in design/technology regarding material (aluminum chassis/suspension, etc. Every sub-system of the car was designed or tuned by what could read as a "who's who" list on racing at that time, from Japanese, to Americans, to Brazilians. The car was Japan's all-out shot at Ferrari.
Sadly, they built a masterpiece and then just polished it up from year to year without ever truly updating it. It has fallen by the wayside, but it's a great footnote in history!
