Default 60-1 Eclipse GS-T

As quick as i got out of my car at the local car meet, a guy walked up asking if i wanted to race a Eclipse with a 'hybrid' turbo. Awesome. We agreed to a 45 roll, seeing as how he was FWD. A blue modded Evo tagged along too. On the launch, surprisingly the Eclipse was right with me. Everytime he shifted he lost about a half-car on me. Ended up i beat him by about 2ish cars. I have no idea where the Evo was. Guy was really cool and after we raced i found out what size turbo it had on it. Reminds me of the old days in Austin where people actually raced. Now instead of 8 cars going out to race, 6 watch 2.
