<FONT size=2>so my roomate and i are hangin out, first we eat at hooters and then go to starbucks. leaving hooters, we see a minivan with a white carbon fiber like hood with hood pins. then, ata red light across from chick filet, this red eclipse pulls up next to me. looks like a stock rs. i go, he goes, and winds up a bit in first and off goes the blowoff valve. hmm, he must have a turbo, or a simulator. so i decide to follow him and find out. we turn left, i pull up next to him in 3rd at about 40-45 or so. we both hit it, i leave it in 3rd. i pull a carlength on him instantly, and as i wind up 3rd i pull a bit harder, and hitting 4th i left him by a few carlengths and he appeared to back off. my roomate said the kids jaw dropped when i hit 4th and left him. he caught up a few lights later gave me a thumbs up and we went our seperate ways. i was suprised i thought a stock turbo eclipse would be a much closer race,because i do have a fairly weak 3rd gear.</FONT> <edited><editID>BCisme</editID><editDate>37976.4099074074</editDate></edited>

there's a GSX sponsored by a local radio station here pulling 11.7's. he blew my doors of at the track in richmond.<IMG src=smileys/smiley11.gif border="0">
I only thought the GSX, or w/e it is, was the only eclipse with a turbo? Was this an eclipse with the new body style? If you're stock you shouldn't have beat a turbo one by a whole lot.
the GS-T is a turbo, the GS-X is an AWD version. same hp ratings. it was a 95-99 style. they've yet to make turbo 2000+ eclipse. and i'm not stock. if i had dropped it to 2nd, i would have pulled away quicker.
Thats why I asked about the body style, cause their big dawg now is a 3.0 v6 with like 210hp or so. They're slow <img src=uploads/95LT1/BA818_gr_barf.gif border="0">
there's a kid on post here who thinks his stock GT eclipse V6 can whip my stang. he also thought it could smoke my 97 LT1 cuz it was heavier than his eclipse by like 300 lbs. oooohhhh 300 lbs...<IMG src=smileys/smiley3.gif border="0"></P>
</P>
funny, he doesn't want to race me.<IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0"></P>
I <img src=uploads/95LT1/ZB82Z_owned.gif border="0"> a newer model one in my Maxima. Must have been a 4 banger though b/c it wasn't close. My gf was with me and the guy had a friend in his car and he reached out and tapped the roof....so I proceeded to let him feel the wrath of my family sedan <img src=uploads/95LT1/Z51BD_bang.gif border="0">
my first turbo import kill!!!
