Default MC LS vs Eclipse GS

alright... well, I thought Id tell ya about my race against "Melissa", some crappy GS eclipse thinking they have more ***** then mine. sooo... heres what I need to explain about my town... its 3500 people, and has two major roads going in/through/out of town. one, washington, coming in to town and ending at a 4 way that convently connects you to 2nd street, the other major road, both 4 lanes wide (2 each side) that goes through town. I was on the backroads driving around with a friend when headlights quickly come up on my rear. I slow down in case it was a cop and start driving back to the main road to ge them under street lights. I find myself closest to washington, so, I head there. I find it a red eclipse, so I turn down the road and start my little treck to keep going through town. It follows, and hops in the other lane pulling up next to me. I jump 10 miles an hour up, so now going 15 over (30 MPH speed limit) and it pulls up next to me a moment later, then, I see the front end of theirs pull skyward as if its trying to accelerate. It starts pulling away, but, at a very laughable speed. I floor it, and within a few seconds Im back up with it and pass it going close to 80 miles an hour through town. I stop at the 4 way, then turn down 2nd street. They follow after they get there, and I am back to the speed limit. they catch up, pull along side of me, then try jumping a few times to get me to do it again... at last, I give in, they launch, I launch, at again just pull away without a problem. that, again ends at a 4 way and unfortnatly, is a cop just pulling up as we do. aka, I called it a night after that. so, 1 overkill for me...

MC vs Duramax
Going home after coming in 2nd place at our saturday night poker game. Hit a stoplight with a Duramax. I could tell the guy wanted to run, but I wanted to see what button did what in my new car.
Green light.....
The Duramax blew black smoke and was GONE! I was still playing with my buttons.
Next light, same Duramax. OK, got the buttons figured out, except that one... GREEN LIGHT!
OFF he goes, I hit the throttle.
The Duramax won. But from a full truck length head start I was to his door by the next light.
I didnt buy this car to race, but I'm glad it can.

Good kill on the Eclipse. But with the Duramax for a big *** truck they can move pretty good. Plus the Duramax is the sports car on the diseal trucks

A guy I work with has one, quad cab, 8ft bed, 2500. I raced him in my Firebird and he gave me more of a run then I thought it would have. Then I drove it and was surpized about how much it would kick you back when that turbo came around.
