Walked an eclipse.
First race yesterday. I came up behind a lowered eclipse (not the newest gen body, but the one before what's out now) and he quickly moved to the right lane. As I crept by him in 5th going about 50mph, he pulled up to my door....I shifted to 3rd and tapped it a few times to let him know I was game. He dropped it and so did I....I just walked him, didn't even finish out 3rd and I heard him shifting. He didn't have a chance. I guess those AEM stickers, carbon hood (well, the hood was black anyhow) and loud exhaust weren't really helpin. I told my friend riding shotgun as I was pulling up behind the guy hat if he was smart, he wouldn't want none of this...well, guess he wasn't!
By the time I hit close to 90, he was a car length or two behind me.
Shut it down and stopped for a left turn...he did the typical rice boy fly by with his fart can exhuast.
My car: 2k2 6spd STOCK
His car: Maybe a turbo? Couldn't tell...his damn intake/exhaust was too loud to hear any psssst.

not so careful
if he was modded turbo he might have had a chance. If he was stock (except for that fart-can) then there was no race. A stock Eclipse *from*any*year* can not beat a 2k2 unless the Max driver messes up.

Oh, and as far as the poll vs. the post...I threw the poll in after I typed the post. No, they have nothing to do with eachother, just curious about people's washing habits!
I find myself washing my car too damn much.
