94 Z28 vs. 2nd gen Eclipse GST

I was riding around with some friends that own imports. I was behind the GST and a Civic Si, the took off and after I had enough room, I blipped the throttle. Long tubes and open cutout = loud. The GST switches lanes, I give it some gas and slowly go by him. He then comes up on me fast, but we're running out of room since a stop sign is coming up. So I get behind him. We hit another stop sign and the road turns into a 2 lane road, no one was coming from the other direction. So I floor it, and start pulling on him fast until he hits the gas, the pull slows. I get into 2nd and I'm hitting ~50 mph and I just go by while he gets an earful of my incredibly loud car. I bring it up to ~90 mph and let off and tap the brakes to let him know I'm done. The friend that made this all happen was following us, and he said he could smell my car from way back(like 1/2 mile). It's always nice to slam down some imports, but they weren't your typical riceboys, they were cool and they do try to make their cars fast. So props to those guys as well. Nothing like a friendly race.

Ok, I think it was a 2nd gen then. It had the 2.0 in it and was a turbo. I don't know my gens on imports.
