Azrielsc 1st Gear May 13, 2003 Share May 13, 2003 Really expensive for the Eclipse man! Got the jump on the M3 at the line and then his engine blew! Too bad, though, thought that the race would get exciting! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
E36UDM Neutral Newbie May 13, 2003 Author Share May 13, 2003 Question on my mind is 'was the M3 pushing at all?' From the video its hard to tell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saaber Neutral Newbie May 13, 2003 Share May 13, 2003 I don't think the M3 was pushing hard as his launch was quite mild... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
E36UDM Neutral Newbie May 13, 2003 Author Share May 13, 2003 That was what appeared to me but Eclipse being the AWD could it really smoke the M3? Maybe should ask Turbobrick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saaber Neutral Newbie May 13, 2003 Share May 13, 2003 The eclipse definitely can smoke the M3....power is definitely more than the M3... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onyx60 Neutral Newbie May 13, 2003 Share May 13, 2003 Eclipse GSX is actually a detuned version of the Mit. Evo in the U.S. with american styling n parts built in Michigan...before they decided to bring the imported Evo 8 in this year. With proper tuning and boosting, u can turn it into an Evo (and more as seen in the movie Fast and the Furious)....so can an Evo smoke an M3?...it can definitely smoke a stock M3.

E36UDM Neutral Newbie May 13, 2003 Author Share May 13, 2003 Looks like gota go test drive the EVO leow Thanks bro Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saaber Neutral Newbie May 13, 2003 Share May 13, 2003 M3 is fast but up against a 400+ hp turbocharged beast, no chance... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx60 Neutral Newbie May 13, 2003 Share May 13, 2003 Ive driven the GSX before in the U.S...its not Evo 8 but very sweet nonethelss...AWD makes all the diff. and i pretty much swear by it It makes the average driver looks above average and turn a good driver into an excellent racer! RWD cars on the other hand can be the best handling platform in the world if its in the hands of a highly skilled or pro driver. But given to the average driver taking the car to the limit can be potentially disastrous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
E36UDM Neutral Newbie May 13, 2003 Author Share May 13, 2003 Yes good drivers push the car to the limits wheras average drivers push it to their own limits and I belong to the latter. Definetly wun push beyond my own limits Thanks vm for sharing ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
