Hybrid Civic (ME) vs. Eclipse GST

Whats up yall - this was a good race.

Ok, so i have a good friend with a Convertable GST eclipse (98). His car is pretty quick, so we decided to "street it" today to see just how much faster his car was than mine.

We didnt race from a dead stop because there is a new law where you get your car impounded on the spot if you get caught racing.

Bacically, He really only beat my once third gear hit - then he was gone, but we were dead even up untill the end of second - BTW, he is boosting at 15 psi.

I do much better than him in first gear, and during second - his turbo (15G) is fully spooled and he pulls on me slightly. Once third kicked in, there was no way i was gonna win, since hondas loose all their muscle once third hits (plus i have to double clutch on my way from 2nd to 3rd - thanks steve for a great tranny from HMO).

But ya, it was a good race and i am impressed with my car and so was my friend.
