#114718, "What is up with this????"


          

I have no idea why this is but it seems my 1999 GS N/A is the fastest Eclipse I have ever raced on the street and it has very minor mods(CAI and a muffler). I'm not trying to showboat or anything but it just doesn't make since that I have also beat a mustang. Can anyone give ANY conclusions.

Sure, V6 Mustangs are slow too, just like your n/a 2gnt.

May seem fast, but my new friend, in reality. Its slow.

How to find out how slow your 420A really is.

1. Go to track
2. Watch fast cars
3. Run your car
4. If time slip says 17 or greater, FAIL.
If time slip says 16 or under, kinda win.

OR to take the short route...

1. Drive 2g with 4G63.

If you want to see that your car is in fact NOT fast or even quick, try to keep up with a minivan from a light.

that only works if it's a new minivan and one of those scary soccer moms is behind the wheel emoji


**Edit: To the OP, your car isn't fast, my WRX wagon with a full load from the lumber store could walk all over it, and that thing is still bone stock. I know, I tried keeping up with my wife when I was driving my eclipse and she was in the scooby
