Can the new Acura Integra keep up with its peers? Or the original Type R? — Cammisa Drag Race Replay

How quick is the 2023 Acura Integra A-Spec? On this episode of Cammisa’s Ultimate Drag Race Replay, we race it against the legend: the original DC2 Integra Type R. This episode of Ultimate Drag Race Replay is brought to you by WeatherTech: After the new-vs-old Integra race, we race the new Integra against its current front-wheel drive competition: the Volkswagen Jetta GLI and Hyundai Elantra N — the only other fwd, turbocharged, manual-transmission sport compact sedans you can buy today. For perspective on just how fast today’s cars are, we also bring out a Ford Bronco Raptor — though we keep it on the dirt. Cammisa’s Ultimate Drag Replay is all about perspective, including our now-famous walkback, in which Jason explains what happened — including for example, how the Integra’s gears are so short that it actually pulls harder than the Jetta GLI; or how the Jetta’s all-season tires and overprotective traction control mean it’s already behind the all-business Hyundai Elantra N by the time it gets to 30 mph. ==== Subscribe to our YouTube channel for new videos every day!
