RAPED....I mean Raced a V6 eclipse

Today on the way to work, I was running late, but minding my own buisness on the two lane I-60. I then got cut off by this dude in an V6 eclipse. He was driving crazy, and weaving around. I decided to keep up with him, because I was kind of pissed, and the two of us seperated from the rest of traffic. At the up comming stop light I stopped along side him, and gave him an angry look for cutting me off. He looked at me, nodded his head and started revving. In my mind, I was like, you asked for this *****. I shifted to D3, and on green floored the **** out of my car. I got no wheel spin, and he disappeared by second gear. by third, I slowed down and he did a fly-by, and glared at me. He was such a jacka$$, and I was so happy I hurt his ego! he probably thought this dude in a sedan is toast, but I sure as hell respresented

Why D3? Wouldn't it be better if you used the sport shifter?

yea man .. these ppl just continuously get misled by these little peppy mitsubishi ads. .. mazda too .. all pep and no substance. .. talkin bout zoom zoom ..

I drove an older eclipse in the past.. non GS-T and well.. suffice to say .. my four banger pontiac 6000 had gobs more torque and pickup than this car. Its sad to see that things haven't changed recently either. unless you're on the top of the line eclipse, you really dont have much to run around with.
