OK, my dad seems to think that he BMW 740il can take my eclipse from stop, and also on the freeway. I keep telling him that I'll eat him from a stop but on the freeway he'll kill me, but he doesn't believe me. And the worst part is he won't race me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn him. Anywayz what do you guys think will happen?

What year is the 740iL? I think he's probably going to take you from both, but it depends what year his BMW is, and whether it's manual or automatic.

You will get the launch if it's wet, but after that, you're as good as food.
