The Eclipse came to the meet from Waco with his "400 hp" Eclipse claiming he put a car on a C6 Vette. My thinking is he passed the Vette in traffic or was parked in front of it at Walmart. You be the judge!

150 shot. Says it right in the video, hard to miss.

LS3 Stang needs the driver mod, I keep asking him to let me drive it one time to show it what it should do.

Says 333whp on motor and looks slow enough not to be using the 150 shot, hard to miss.

Says 150 shot. Then says 333 whp (on motor)

Is it really that hard to figure out? I guess I need to dumb down my descriptions because you're not the first person to say something.

I personally don't like it... it's way too tight and it struggles on higher rolls and rpm climb is a bit slow. Coming in from a 20-30 roll, 2nd gear is an absolute beast. But falls off during the initial part of third. It's a yank pro series 3600 boost/n20 converter. But I'm having fun without the juice.

Perhaps if that was the same size font as the rest. If viewing in 144p in place as opposed to high-def full screen it's hard to read.

I'm sad to see the LS3 stanger banger getting whopped by the bolt-on 5.O

Not sure it would be described as "dumbing down" ... often enough when you watch videos in SRK they're followed by an explanation like, oh, yeah on this run or that run this car was spraying but then on that other run he didn't have enough bottle pressure and wasn't spraying and then this one he was and that one he wasn't, et cetera. The way you lay it out, it looks like he sprays sometimes and runs on motor other times. "333 whp on motor + 150 shot" would make it more obvious that he is spraying that shot for every run pictured.

Not like it really matters though...people could just ask in the comments

He did spray for both runs. If he didn't, I would have removed the 150 shot and (on motor) lines.

I've been making easy to understand videos for quite a while now, maybe not easy enough, though!

It gives the impression that he is (on motor)... so go back and redo this entire video, and let us know when it's done to get approval, thanks.
