A few weeks ago, i have heard from my friends, that this interga was spose to be so fast , he claims to run mid 12s all motor. He wanted to put 500 dollars agaist my eclipse. I only go down to iowa may be once a month and he had seen my eclipse down there.
Well next week comes, I meet up with him at a wedding.He was in his group of hondas. I roll in the parking lot trying not to let my blow off valve go off. They look at my car, scan my wheels, interior and said thats all you got. I've had taken off my gtr wing, and 17 inch rims a month ago for a sleeper look. I had stock wheels with nitto drag radials, may be 1 inch lowerd.
we got into a argument about how much money to put down, his friend wanted to put 1 grand, finally we said forget it and race to see who can claim fame.We left the parking lot to go race, this time as i roll out, i mashed the pedal so the crowd can hear my turbo whine up and hks bov going off.
we roll up to this two lane street (speed limit may be 35mph) with a few industrial buildings. No stop lights so he wanted a flager, i was like hell no , i let you take off first. He revs his engine drop the clutch, and he was off, a car length in front of me. I rev my engine drop clutch at 3500rpm, tire screerches, grips , then i floor it ( drag radials are awesome on street). I got along side off him, pop it in 2nd gear, grind miss gear (crappp!!! dang mitsu trannys), he was a good 2 car lenghts in front of me by the time i got into gear. Heheh then i flipped the switch hidden under my steering wheel colum, and floor it. I flew right pass him, it felt like i double his speed. I granny shifted in to third about 6 car lenghts in front of him, and pull farther away. I reach about 110mph in 4th gear and I was a good 2 1/2 semi truck(18wheeler)lengths in front of him.
When we got back to the wedding, the guy had the most pale face ever. I was shaking to when we got back (never use 100hp shot of NOS in a small two lane road). the guy probley only had intake and exhuast, headers, thought he was top dawg cause he can beat a few slow v-8s.
My mods: xs b\c set 17psi, hks bov, 2 1\2" custom cat-back, 2 1/2" custom downpipe, 2 1/2" testpipe, b&m f/p regulator,K&N filter, Accell 8mm wires, 255lph pump, skunkworks/kybshocks, stutbrace, 100hp shot NOS wet system,nitto 555r, other small interior guages and things i forgot to list. best track time 13.7 , best mph 104.6, 2.1 60ft ,on hot humid day.
thanks for reading my long story, in a race its not what your car looks like, its whats in it. No i havnet blown my motor with NOS, ive gone trough 4 bottles of NOS with 100hp shot, just don't run lean
