First Race, First Place!
I pulled up to a red light next to a '00 Eclipse. He started revving his stuff. So I figured...why not? Let me just tell you, it's amazing what a 1.6L VTEC (still totally stock) can do. The idiot sat there peeling his tires for like 10 seconds. After I burned his POS, we both stop again and complained that he got a bad start and wanted to try again. Then I had the green light and went home. Just thought I'd fill your inquiring minds. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] See you all later.

Oh my car's a '99. I figured if it wasn't specifically about 6th gen cars then we didn't have to post in that forum.

What kind of eclipse was it. If it was the GT, he either wasnt racing or maybe he started of in 3rd gear instead of 1st.

now go race some stangs (not the new ones) 2001 and down the new ones are really fast but they make they make the best face when they lose its a look of confusion and anger one of my highlights of the year is when i raced a 97 rustang 3 times and smoked him everytime at every light he had a new excuse...

I don't think it matters what you race against. Winning is winning, bad start, dumb driver, etc. Congrats man.

F uck that. You beat his stupid @ss. It's not your fault he wanted to f uck around and peel his tires for an hour. He deserved to get beat.

Oh yeah, street racing is bad.

I appreciate your consideration[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG], and I understand what you mean. If I knew this street to be as busy as some other streets in my girlfriend's neigborhood, I wouldn't be racing people like that. However, the street we raced on was a small strip (1/4 mile or so) and very very light traffic. It's Painesville Twp., Ohio for Christ's sake...[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

I raced a new Eclipse GT in my RX-7 and stomped his @$$, but I have to say new V6 is pretty strong.
