Unhappy I got smoked by an eclipse.. imma loser

Friday night around 12:10 AM i went out for a drive on a main street that everyone cruises. I wanted to cruise because i just finally got my 96 Rs fixed and running after almost 1 year. And you know thats a long time that i had to wait to drive it. Well i was waiting to turn off a main HW to the main street that everyone goes on and there was a Fixed up red eclipse. It was going the opposite direction i was going so therefore i didn't think nothing of it. When i turned past him i noticed him and his friend was eye balling my car. So im thinking that noticed my fast blinking turn signals (which already came with the car when i bought it) and also that night i buffered my paint and waxed it =). so it was looking clean in his eyes. So i went and cruised the strip for about 10 minutes and busted a U.


So here i am back at the same redlight and on the other street i saw the same red fixed up eclipse waiting to turn to the same street i was on. So i was thinking man.. he must be out looking for people to race. So i went first and drove down the street for a little bit. Then i guess he turned and slowly crepted up on me. He was in the other lane kinda behind me and im guessing hes tryin to see what model my car was. Well the only problem with that is i took off all my emblems so there was no [RS] sticker or [eclipse] emblem on my center lights. So basically all he saw was my red paint and my all red tails. So he pulled past me tryin to test me out so i sped up and styed behind him.


So now i followed him for about 1 1/2 mile then i decided to fcuk with him even tho i know my car was slow. So i pulled next to him to check his car out he had a 97-99 model... glossy red paint.. bomex body kit.. carbon fiber hood... wing... black 18" rims with a chrome lip and slammed.Then i noticed inside he had all indiglow gauges and indiglow tach. So i was like... man hes' for real a true racer haha. So he looked at me... i looked at him then he started to rev... so i throw back my car into 3rd gear for the hell of it and the he just pulled off like nothing. So im guessing he pulled off prolbally by 2 1/2 cars while i was still trying to exclerate. So the good sports men i was i turned on my hazard lights to signal that he won. So he turned into a street and i went home. So that was that and i got me thinking... what can i do to get him back????

So any suggestions? I have a fully stock 420a with a 54mm throttle and also my car isn't even lowered yet.=/

o yeah i lost to my friends 93 acura integra... he had two 12" subs with box... 18" rims.. Full bodykit... also Dynomat his trunk lid and that weights at least 45lbs. so the total extra weight he had was probally 160lbs.-almost 200lbs. extra? So im a loser in the streets. =(


here are some pictures of his car its an LS model.

Re: I got smoked by an eclipse.. imma loser

Pictures dont work and yeah like milton666 said, Buy a turbo eclipse. If u rather hassle with a Hanh Turbo kit and keepin the stock 420 then thats for u but if i were u il sell that rs and get a 1st gen gsx or 2nd gen gst (or gsx if u can find 1). Dont even bother askin if u can swap the 420 with a 4g63 because its easyer and possibly cheaper to swap cars instead.

EDIT: Oh yeah and if u think u'l just put in a turbo into that rs and smoke him your wrong. That guy will easily tune up his car or do just some modifications and smoke u again. ~_^
