accord = not a race car
GSR weighs much less than your accord. with mods and all probably a 20-25hp difference.....accord = tank ,.....gsr = feather

Thrust to weight ratio. He beat you because of that reason.

I would say its the 200hp....doubtful the gsr would take the 240hp v6.

If you have a 6th gen you have an auto 200 hp, which means your putting down like 160-170 to the wheels. A GSR 5-spd will put down like 150 to the wheels. In a much lighter car. The lesson of the day is power to weight ratio > # of cylinders.

Sorry you won't keep up to a WRX. Stick to picking on stock integras.
