91 Trans Am vs. New Eclipse

The eclipse had a fire paint scheme and a euro pipe im stock with a very badly bashed in drivers door. so im sorta wounded. But by 4th gear i decided not to kill him that bad i had about 4-5 cars lengths on him.

Good kill! My buddy's in the Air Force and he just bought a new Eclipse... then proceeded to hint at the fact that when I get a Firebird he'll probably hand my @$$ to me. Now I can maybe look forward to contradicting him... as soon as I get a Firebird.

Keep showin' those rice rockets they can't handle true American muscle!

my brother has raced both the new eclipse (v6 model), and the older turbo versions. he killed both. however, the turbo eclipses can go high 14s with a good driver and a stick. thats right with a 350/auto or 305/manual. be careful.

it turns out that the guy with the eclipse works at best buy with one of my friends, and he keeps trying to get my friend to race him in his 2002 Civic Ex, dunno about that battle. but my friends T-bird, haven't had the chance to race him, he has beaten the DSM GSX's and the newer GST's and the new v6's
