99 Civic EX vs 99 Eclipse RS

[sohc_vtec 2NR]

My friends and I went out to our lil spot and I raced my friend's eclipse, cuz he always asked me to so I finally said yes.

CAR STATS:

99 Civic EX-127 HP ++
AEM Intake
Greddy EVO
...same as always..

99 Eclipse RS-140 HP
..uh..stock


1ST RUN
'87 Integra flagged us and off I go with the holeshot...pulled on him pretty quick in first gear and in second gear I chirp the tires and gain some more...and by the time it was over I was ahead by 2-3 cars...:yes:

2ND RUN
My other buddy with the Altima on the other side "flagged" us by flashin' his high beams 3 times... This time the eclipse got the holeshot considerin' that my car bogged and by the time I was goin he was at least a car length ahead of me....2nd gear..tire squeal and gained on him, 3rd i proceeded to pass him up...4th gear I was ahead of him by like half a car... I still managed to catch up to him and win...which was cool ;)

After I raced him...he raced my buddy's altima and then we left....on the way home the altima dood decided to speed on the way home and ended up gettin' a ticket...such irony.. :no: he was clocked at 64 in a 45.....then we got to my house and ate some taquitos :D

Was the eclipse an auto or manual? There is a guy around here with a 95 eclips rs auto with CAI and Exhaust that tries to race and it is the slowest piece of crap ever. Dude got beat by a girl in a stock 2003 sunfire by several cars it was embarassing. Eclipse Rs's are slow but I guess it was a good kill because civics are slow too:confused:

[MAXed Out]

that explains everything and depends on what kind of eclipe it was and how beat up.

A stock V-6 will run 14.8- 15.2. Thats abot the same time as a stock tsi. :confused:

if i ran against a v6 it would be murder for my 16.2-16.5

Nice. The RS/GS are very slow. 17's if they are lucky.....:o

Yup. Not sure what he was trying to say...
The V6's are pretty quick stock. Doesn't take much to make them run fast either...

well maybe im running into some non driving v6 owners... i even took out a few in my teg ... and its not even that fast... guess they just couldn't drive.
