97 RS KILLS BMW 3 series

My girl and I decided to go for a drive since we were bored and there was nothing to do.

We came to a stop at an intersection and there was this rich yuppie guy, he looked like he was in his mid 30s sitting in his nice ass BMW 3 series with his model chick in the passenger seat.

When the light turned green, he floored it and I just laughed. At the next light, he took off again and this time i said what the heck... might as well!

I floored it and of course he had an early start. We were on the coast HWY so there were no lights for at least 2 blocks. This guy didn't have a huge lead at all! He was leading by half a car and this was right off the line.

As soon as I hit 3rd, we were nose to nose. As soon as I hit 4th, GOODBYE!!! I killed his ass!!!

Keep in mind, this guy has more HP than I do! The only reason why I believe I won was because I was a better driver than him. He was redlining like a muthafu#ker and was shifting too late.

Re: 97 RS KILLS BMW 3 series

Only CAI.

For some reason, my car sounds way different than most RS Eclipses and has more pick up too!

If you heard my car, you would think that I had custom exhaust.

Re: 97 RS KILLS BMW 3 series

I don't believe it ... the RS motor is probably one of the weakest and gayest pos I've ever seen I know cuz I have have a 99 RS too... and I swear the car probably goes 0-60 in 12 seconds flooring it every gear... there's no way you can keep up with a bmw 3 series... unless his car was loaded with weight from something. Like his fat gf for example.

I have done 0-60 in 9 (auto) and this was when my motor was eating/burning oil and had bad rings. You have to be a really bad driver to do it in 13 sec.

But don't forget, with work the RS can ACTUALLY be fast! yay.

Obviously, the BMW was not pushed to its full potential. About any 3 series can school the 420a.

Maybe he wasn't racing ...or seriously, maybe he just got the car and hadn't learned to drive stick yet.
