My friend and I were on the way to the KOP Plaza today for some school book and a 07' Eclipse pulled up to me. I didn't even know we were racing until I heard him rev up like crazy as the light changed. Soon a I heard it I punched it. I have crappy almost bald tires and it chirped a little and I was on my way. I really thought I was gonna get raped until my car hit second and really started pulling on him. I pulled probably about 3/4 a car on him until somebody pulled out in front of me and I had to slow down.

He pulled up next to me at another light and he was like "hey you had me back there is that a 350?" I had to laugh when I told him it was only a V6. He then told be I can shift alot better then him, he said he saw me throw it in second. MY buddy was dieing of laughter when I told him it was also and automatic. The guy was speechless, kinda looked disappointed but he was a good sport he said nice car and we went our ways.
