Killing a Eclipse

It's a sad one, and Un-Fair. I got tempted to race my 300E 24V. I put a Turbo in it's ****ing sick. Anyways, I was sitting at a light with an Eclipse sitting revving his engine at me thinking he'd cream my 300E Not knowing it's 24v, and has a turbo. I revved mine, light turned green, I beat him the whole way down route one. I creamed him, he looked like he was going to cry when he caught up with me at the end. But, Please keep the listless, and negative comments off, Thanks.

-Jake

haha I beat one in my 300e 2.6 last week. I only had him by about 2-3 car lengths at about 1000ft, but it was enough for me to let off and take the win.

Saw the guy the next day and he threw up a peace sign.

Post pics of the turbo up in w124 section!

Oh, it's not about the car. The OPs just dreaming-- I highly doubt anyone is going to cry after losing a race-- and "he came and revved his engine", dammit I've never been lured into a race like that. How generic.

I'm sure the Eclipse was out for a hunt, saw the fearsome 300E and decided to race it! Oh the bragging rights that come with beating a 300E!!!

I would never assume a 300E is any faster then a Toyota Previa; if I had the Eclipse I wouldn't waste my time.
