Default Raced a 97 Eclipse last night

Last night on the way home from school....mindin my own business this black eclipse with fart pipe and green underglow comes flyin up on my ***. I was like wtf. Anyways turned out he was my cousin, raced him from about 65 to 100 or so and barely beat him, his front bumper was at my door. Thats a pretty fast little car, sounded like an angry weedeater though.

They're not fast from a roll. Hell the only one that is fast period is the AWD turbo one and still, it's not that fast from a roll. What do you drive?

Man I was sitting here reading it... thinking no way an eclipse hung with a stang. Come to find out you're driving a 91 S-10, uh... that's some important info left out, but funny as hell finding out what you were driving. I bet he was pissed lol
