An Integra Type-R really is a sweet car, it's just Lozer over-estimates it's capabilites.
The forte of the Integra is not acceleration, but handling.  Granted, the acceleration is decent, considering it has a <2 liter, naturally aspirated 4 cylinder.  It's a sweet engine, getting ~195 hp, & redlining at 8500 RPM.  But it's no monster.  The suspension, however, is top-notch for it's price range.
In short, the Type-R is light & agile, but is no drag king.
