I got a group of friends to go to the only local dragstrip around me. The Ricers and a Lightning, so we will see how I do. It's a 1/8 mile strip. So on Saturday when I get back I will post how I did, maybe even a vid if I can.

Thanks for the tips guys.

P.S. How fast is a 1997 Eclipse GSX?

the GSX's have a lot of potential, lets just hope its stock, cuz they are easy to make fast. . .

Saw a Dakota R/T on street tires run a 12.3 yesterday at the track.. looked bone stock under the hood, no idea about suspension mods though.

yea the GSX is stock but my friend says its still enough to beat my car. I guess we will see.

Web says the R/T has a 5.9 L 250 hp engine. 375 lbs of torque though.
