RE: How to kill a super sweet racing eclipse
The car in the first vid sounded like it was Cammed. Before he took off, you can kind of make out a lopey idle.
What's the point of going that fast on open roads again? Really though, what's the point of having a car with a speedo that shows 200+mhp? Those speeds aren't used but on a track (or at least it shouldn't be). So why do people jump for joy when they state that they went 100+++ mhp on the streets and act like they've accomplished something? I don't get it. Maybe it's just me.
I agree with TE on both counts.

Stares at the wall thinking about those supras...
Back to the point.. Theres no shame in losing to a vette like that.. It would be fun just to see that thing in action...

RE: How to kill a super sweet racing eclipse
i agree, there is no shame in losing to anything... if the other person has put more time into their car, has a larger budget, had had it longer etc etc.... when i lose to somebody it just makes me want to make my car even better for the next time. that thing sounded S I C K though!
