Can you divide HP by weight? The higher the number is the likely winner.

The Buick would win because it has a V6 and 220 tq so it would definetely pull up until about 75 mph...the Accord has 4 cylinder 160 hp/tq and an auto which isnt really going to pull a 2994 pound car...and the weight difference is not even that drastic i got the buick on this one...but that buick up against the 205 hp k24 of the TSX then u got a rapage, i mean race

it would be pretty close, the slush box is killing the accord though.

I think it could go either way. The numbers are really close and the piping upgrades on the Honda will allow it to get to the higher rpms quicker, however the Buick doesn't need to get to such a high rpm to hit max torque. This race would likely depend on who gets a better launch.
