HHR SS vs 99 Mitsubishi eclips
So this red Mitsubishi eclips with sponsor decals and a fire extinguisher on the A pillar thought he could take me on. Lol he never caught up not even close. I guess he thought the little fire extinguisher on the A pillar was suppose to give him extra HP?? Lol

How about some more details.
I am curious since you have the gmtu and automatic.
Was ut from a roll?
I know mine snd others at times will not full boost from a roll with auto if it senses any bosst first.I was told by one of the gm engineers and others that it still is putting out the same torque either way. Sure does not feel it though.
Anyhow more details would be good
Maybe if he used his fire extinguisher out yhe window for boost it would have helped lol

And foxtrot, I seen a 99 ish black eclipse around my neck of the woods a few times that has checkered pinstripes that are white, and has big number 3's on the doors.....not sure what he's going for, but dale Earnhardt theme on a 99 eclipse with a fart can is pretty stupid IMO....Monte Carlo should be the car with that stuff?

One from a stop then from a roll at about 35mph. Yeah I get that boost thing sometimes. From a roll I got 10 then it went up to 15 psi after 2nd gear. From a stop I got about 22psi it snapped my neck back. That guy didn't have a chance
