I have a 95 Maxima with Cold air intake, full exhaust, 5 spd, suspension. There is this 95 eclipse that wants to race me i think he has like 240 HP, turbo upgrade,like 15psi, exhaust, and its front wheel drive not an awd. what do oyu guys think? we are going to the track i think. so i have any chance? that eclipse sounds so sweet!!

i dont think so not unless you pop one of his tires then you might have a chance. If that thing is running 15psi from the stock 8 psi add to that hes awd there is no way in hell. I'm still for the popping his tires. tho i never did care much for those cars my cutlass has over 500hp at the wheels so i dont really have to worry about that anymore i can pretty much embarass most street legal cars now.

he said gst, fwd not awd.

depends on how well his car is actually tuned and if he's telling you the truth. dsm's can be insanely awesome, but it seems for every $ in mods, they cost $$ to keep up and fix them a lot of the time.

race him at the track anyways for fun. maybe he'll miss a shift and you'll get lucky. g'luck
