Lost to a turboed eclipse.

Well I don't remember what year it was, but I can tell you this. It sounded real nice not ricey at all. Paint job was nice also it was a dark red, a little darker than ummm... the cobalts red. Anyways I was going home and he pulls up next to me lets me here his BOV well there was no traffic I mean it was just me and him no one else on the road. SO we take off from around 55mph we stay neck to neck than he starts to pull me. By the time we cut off he was about a fender length in front of me. Now the only reason why I post my loss is because it was a real nice eclipse one of the nicest I've ever seen.

no big surprise the 4G63 has been around forever and are making huge amounts of power....

Sounds like a pretty good race, I'm sure he was impressed with how well you kept up...

Well it was not the first turbo eclipse I've danced with. I raced one when I was completely stock and I barely beat him by a couple of inches.
