Maybe he has AIDS and wants to share the wealth. Also, has anybody ever raced a 3G or 4G eclipse that even came close (by 4 or 5 cars)?

I won't lower myself to offer you any insults or wish you any harm. Instead I will just say good luck.

Good luck to you XakEp.
That knowledge and discussion have no place in the Kills section. I'm suprised it took you 9 posts to figure that out. If you were as **** about the rules as you seem to be, you'd know that technical discussions belong in the TECHNICAL sections.

The only way a 3g or 4g eclipse is going to keep up with an LS1 is if the LS1 owner is drunk, high, having a seizure and dies. THEN the eclipse might catch up.

Might. Thats assuming the corpse doesnt lean on the gas pedal.

Im not attacking you in any way but,darrensLs1 is a cool member.Very helpful and 99% of his posts are accurate and well written.
My point is that in some ways you are correct.The members here, that are most wise,avoid this section all together.Even when they do pop in,it never seems like it was worth it.

Hey you were the one that got on that topic in this very thread.

So what you're saying is that it's ok for you to talk about 10 second LS1's in a eclipse kill thread but it's not ok for me. That makes sense

But that's ok. It is off topic because it has nothing to do with trey1010's kill on an eclipse. But for someone who has been around here since 2005 I'm surprised you didn't know that getting off topic in this section is normal.

So I'll say good kill again trey. And again good luck XakEp.
