Unless this car has a twin, I got to see it in the lane next to me at RMR while we staged.

I didn't actually see it again after the light went green, but the timeslip said it was pretty fast.  Not fast enough to catch me, but fast all the same.  ;D

What did you say you drive again?  Faster than 13.XX  I got to see that ;D
To really understand something you must blow it up, and  fully examine the tiny particles while they are still on fire.

1994 Eclipse GSX.

13.17 on that run.  Running on 91 Octane, some sort of all season tires that came with the car when I bought it, full interior with functioning AC.  Not your  typical track prepped import.

It's an automatic V8.  I'd hope it would be fairly consistant.

13.13 @ 107 is still my best. I ran a couple of 13.15's on 7-20-03.  The only real problem i have with keeping it to a 13.1X is just the launch. Almost always 2.1 60'. Not the fastest thing out there. But compared to a stock C5 auto, with a 2.73 rear end that runs a 14.5X's. I am quite happy. I will be the first to admit that I have lost to a few DSMs and an integra. Yeah, I think on that run I pull a disgruntling 13.25~. Props on the win, Good lookin ride too. DSMs are just too fast.  LoL, See ya out there.

We might not be the fastest cars out there, but you could probably count on one hand the number of street cars that are faster than us at the midnights.  Likelyhood of running into faster on the street is slim to none.  Not bad at all.  8)

Close races are the best, most of the time I miss them though,   :( the AWD shoots me out of the hole and I never even see the other car until after the race even if they were close.
