Maybe your transmission fluid is old. Either that or your torque converter is goin out. Or it could be a couple other things...maybe brakes even... <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hmmm.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hmmm:'>

I know the feeling... I got it when I last drove my friend's automatic Civic LX. I would imagine it's probably your auto tranny. They're notorious for not wanting to downshift, which means you stay in gear and don't really accelerate.
Your only REAL fix: &nbsp;5-speed swap!! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sly.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':sly:'> Ditch the auto tranny and install a manual tranny!

Take a peek under the car for fluid, if there is none I'd check the tranny fluid level. &nbsp;Tranny could be going out, seal could have popped, and a bunch of other possibilities. &nbsp;You need to eliminate the easy stuff first. &nbsp;Check the fluid level and go from there:)
