first race in my new car eclipse gsx

ok its saturday im cruising down a notorious street for raceing when a 91 civic pulls up next to me and revs so there it goes the light turns green and were off it was like he didnt even take off. later i pull up next to some older car like a regal or something ( not grand national)there was no revs than he all of a sudden just takes off and go it takes me a while but i pass him after a couple of seconds. than this last race doesnt make sense but look at my other post after you read this well we were rollling about 30mph and i hear a noise and blue 99 civic si with i/h/e i look at him and he takes off so there i go catch up to him right away and pass him and yes we were racing cause he yelled out good race so tell me what you think
i have an exhause that came with it its like 2 inch and i added an intake pretty good for my first day having it

Writing that in sentences would have made it a lot easier to read!

Eclipse GSX.. isn't that just a GS with a cosmetics package? Or do you mean a GS-T (older) or GT (current-model low-performance v6)? Honestly, a civic SI (electric blue 99 civic = SI) could solidly beat a GS, come close to a GS-T after some fairly easy bolt-ons (like i/h/e), and be almost dead-even with a GT Eclipse. Sorry to break the news to people, but Eclipses really aren't very fast. The GS-T was the only hope they had, and it wasn't worth much.

I've worked on and driven a GS-T quite a bit (my ex-girlfriend's car), and it loses to my 'teg GS-R with intake and proper tuning. Granted, by less than half-a-carlength, but still loses.

Eclipse RS = TRASH
Eclipse GS = TRASH
Eclipse GS-T = Turbocharged and a 14.9 second quarter mile
Eclipse GS-X = AWD and Turbocharged and a 14.7 second quarter mile
It'd be hard for him to lose to an SI
