Raced a modded AWD turbo eclipse. I am not sure of all his mods, I know he had full exhaust and boost control. We went from about a 20mph roll, he pulled a lenght on me at first then at about 50mph it was head to head. At about 70mph I started to pull pretty good in front of him. I was almost 2 lengths in front of him when I saw a car merging in from the freeway off ramp so I had to stop.

A freeway off ramp on the track.

"Track conditions" were not permitting another race. Ended up pulling over and weiand talking to him for a bit. Nicest ricer ever. Admited to his loss and we talked about cars for a while. I was surprised he knew the hp weight of my car. Not all ricers are punks.

 

Good Kill...yea not all import drivers are ricers ...good kill

 

Thanks. I was starting to lose faith in the import guys until I met this guy.

 

Why is he a ricer just because he owns an import? That makes no sense. There's a whole lot of ricers around here that own Mustangs and Camaros.

Nice kill, sounds about right. What year was the car?

 

All import drivers are ricers, everybody knows that.

Actually I think he was just using the term "ricer" to describe import drivers in general, not in a derogatory fashion.

Oh well, good kill.

 

Exactly, but now I am going to try to call them import guys, unless they are a "ricer".

 

you could always come to erie my friend chuck owns a eclipse (old style) dsm junkies is his crew. i meet him at a carshow over the summer. I was surprized he was very cool and had 10.21 on the windsheild and thats what got my attention. So i started talking to him and he took me for a ride. i was shocked how fast it was i thought he just put that up there for looks. nope that thing pulled like crazy. More gadgets inside than i could look at but really you guys need to jump in a fwd car thats fast it feels weird all i know is its a stock block with billet internals and a huge turbo and intercooler

 

So this guy runs 10.21 in a FWD DSM? That would make him the 5th fastest FWD DSM in the world. How come I've never heard of him?

Or did I read that wrong?

 

i dont know why you havent herd of him if your into these cars(dsm) because he raced at there nat's or whatever it was at tompsons the day our competitors (showdown motorsports) blew every motor they built( bunch of angry customers thst day) lol he said he saw parts just rolling down the track

 

also if it helps pinpoint him he is black he goes by the nickname 'g'
he is a semi truck driver lives in erie pa his car has a florecent yellow paint job with dsm junkies stickers

 

How can I get a hold of u ?
I am also in BA...

 

pm,email and aol buddy list should work

 

fastest fwd dsms?? then the guy here in michigan must be real high on the fwd list...
see the great folks @ tre and their vid link for details
