Talking Stupid lil Eclipse went poof !!!

Yesterday while cruising to a friends house, a red old style eclipse with a huge fart pipe would race pass me, hit the brakes and then wait for me. As soon as I came close he raced forward again. I let it go and then he started cutting people off and that kinda ticked me off. I got behind him at the next light, no cars in front and I trailed him once the light turned green. He punched it and I lightly hit the gas peddle. I was on his *** like 12"away the whole time and he must have got scared cause I heard the car screaming for mercy...... he started to pull away a little and I hit the gas a little more....back on his ***.....then he must have punched his gas and downshifted becuase the next thing I saw was huge PUFF of black smoke.

I let off as he kept going, all you saw was black smoke.....good for him. You don't mess with these cars and expect to go scott free

I drove off and let him escape.

Welcome to the board As for the kill, I dont think it was a very smart idea to trail him that close... he could have braked, and you would have hit him before your brain even got the message that he hit the brakes, let alone, told your foot to hit the brake pedal... That would have been your *** right there.

thanks for the welcome, my friend belongs here and has been telling me to register so I finally did. As for the closeness I agree with you.
Trust me, I doubt I will do that again My friend yelled at me too, so I'll take what I get, I am just lucky he didn't brake.

Yes, very lucky he didn't brake... good to see you realized your mistake... Glad to see you joined, though it looks that it took you a few moths to post... though it took me about a month before I made my first post after joining. Again welcome.

Hey welcome. I just started here too. I wouldn't have worried about him braking though, those guys are to chicken **** scared to damage thier car. Besides just tell the cop he cut you off and slammed on the brakes before you had a chance to back off.

well, 01blufrmla, you have already become quite the post *****... and well, you hit someone from behind, and you are pretty much screwed, because, it means you were following too closely... even if he did cut you off... its still a bitch

not a good idea, he could have slammed his brakes on. i doubt it was a turbocharged eclipse kill.

Don't get too close to those mitsu's. They are known for falling appart. If you aren't careful you might get hit with flying debris.

LOL... hahaaahhaa

The only reason I have so many posts is because this is my bullshit board. Rarely do I ever post in any of the tech sections... The guys that post here are real cool. Whenever I need tech info I go to CZ28.com or LT1tech.
