I raced a 1g Talon/Eclipse last night!
 

Not really sure what kind of car because it was dark out and, but it was defintely a 1g eclipse or talon dark green. I was on highway 30 in oregon going home from work and I was going about 65 and this car got up on my ass. When he decided to pass I said ---- that ----, then I shifted down to 3rd gear and floored it. Got it up to near redline and shifted into 4th gear and when I got going about 110 I shifted into 5th and let off the gas proving my point.

Of course the only point I proved was that my stock 95 Civic EX was slow as ----. ------- A when I almost caught up with him at 110 he took off again and I couldn't even see him after a while. I just wanted to see what he had under the hood cause he couldn't have had a stock car. If it was stock then I am buying one of those cars.

I guess that wasn't much of a race since I got spanked pretty bad, but it was fun. I was thinking about trying to pass him up the road, but ever time I got close he would step on the gas again. I even tried sneeking up on him around a corner with a running start, but that didn't work. I finally gave up and thought damn I need a turbo.

I live in oregon. what part of highway 30 were you on? did the car have a green banner on the top of the windshield?

Use your head. Personally, i like the idea that at a track, there is an ambulance just sitting there waiting for me to screw up... just some thoughts... carry on ;D

I was just leaving St. Helens going towards Longview and just after the 76 in Deer Park is where he passed me. I didn't get too good of a look at the car really since it was dark and he was hauling so much ass. It did have fog lights though, but I am not too sure about the banner.

if the car you raced is the same car Ive seen around that area it has a port and polished head, blitz bov,spearco fmic, and larger injectors.

I wouldnt mess with a DSM on the freeway. The top end on most of those turbo cars is insane. They are a little sluggish from the get go cause of turbo lag, but after they are moving, look out.

yeah when I was going 110 and he was still pulling away pretty fast I kinda figured out he might have a little more top end than me. :P

and abadboy90 don't worry I won't ditch my car I will make it faster.

I recently raced a brand new merauder with my wifes dodge Intrepid.. Was close and I won but only because of traffic in his way.. Those are supposed to be 300hp.. My wifes Intrepid has a 3.5 all aluminum block 24 valver.. "anyone know the hp?"
;DIt runs like an old big block. Its a real sleeper and I dont think the guy in the merauder was expecting me to even keep up. WOW I havn't drivin over 120mph since I had my Spider on the road!
