D15 vs. D17A2

This wasnt my race, but I have a friend with a 01 auto EX with Injen SRI, filter is filthy black, and another friend that has a 94 DX hatch auto, stock. Both have some ICE but nothing too heavy. I wasnt there, but I was told the D15 won....... has anyone have that kind of result?

Well, as for myself, I raced a 5thgen Accord today.. bastard driver had to keep less than 1/2 car distance while on the local roads... in the rain! So on the highway I let him pass me and yeah... that would be the 2nd 4 cylinder Accord I have beaten.

good dangerous kill in the rain? i guess. lucky you didn't crash. if the d15 is a stock auto and the d17 SRI'd with a shitty filter. the filter would make a difference. i think so anyway.

yes, it was dangerous in the rain. That was stupid of me, I even slipped out shifting from 2nd to 3rd and to 4th. But it was a fairly short "race"...more like 45-75MPH.
STREET RACING IS BAD!!!!!!

I would think the d17 and d15 should be might close but i think the d17 should pull away

I have a D15B VTEC swap into my 95 coupe with an A/T and all it has is a CAI. It's actually pretty darn fast for a shitbox. It would pull my D17 non-VTEC 5 spd. I bet most of the gain is in the weight of the cars. The 95 is hundreds of lbs lighter than the 7th gen.

the D17 should have pulled slowly, but convincingly.

maybe the d15b vtec would have a chance against a d17. but with my hatch that had the d15b7 (non-vtec) auto in it i raced my friends 2001 lx sedan and lost. we both launched pretty good at the start but i was leading a bit. soon after it shifted to 2nd he was gaining. by 80 i was a car length behind him and by that time it seemed like i wouldnt be able to pass him so i let off.
