On the way home from school Thursday I had this hot chick in a nice lookin Eclipse GST trying to race me the whole way home. After we got off the interstate she tried her hardest to get up next to me at a light. We finally both got up front at a red light and she starts revving it up like crazy. I put it in nuetral and throw some revs back at her. Light turns green and I KILLED IT. I was a good 4 cars ahead by 90 so i just let off and cruised till she caught up. As bad as I beat her it must have only been exhaust because it wasn't very quick at all.

 

You beat a modded Eclipse in an auto? holy crap thats awesome, what are you drivin?

 

1998 BMW M3 with a couple of mods.

 

lol shouldnt be surprised then

 

um...if you drive a BMW, then why are you at a protegeclub forum? (just a question, not for arguement)

 

Until I saw the car I was about to call BS....yeah big deal you beat an Eclipse GST in an M3...no surprise there

 

Im on this forum because my girl owns a 1999 Protege 1.6 and I owned a 2002 Protege5 before the BMW. Ive been beat before by a modded GST in the M3. Being an automatic a heavily modded GST could cause some problems in the quarter mile. The M3 really shines on the interstate.

 

The chic can't drive....lol.....j/k.

Try that against a modded GSX from a light and see what happens...you will be touched by the traction that car can get.

Racing a GST from a light? Of course you will, they have no traction (2wd)...all you'll get is massive wheel hop unless you slip the clutch. Now, on the hwy....it's fair game. But from a stop an AWD GSX....well, it would be really close.

 

On the highway i dont think many GSTs could keep up with the M3. Most of there owners probably wish they did but it just aint gonna happen.

 

Your pretty much correct...really i should've said from a roll (say 50-60 mph)...it'll probably get the jump on the 3, but I'm guessing bottom end, the 3 will eat the T. Wow, now I'm curious....soooooo, who wants to have a go at the M3?

 

me and my ma's sequoia limited!!!!

 

Yeah maybe if you hook each car's rear end up to a tow rope,lol. BTW a mildly modded GSX would rape an M3 from a stop

 

Ya....no kidding....I have a vid on my computer of the "Aftermath" of a turbo'd DSM after it tried to run an M3 at a light. I had the actual race, but I think I may have deleted it...hit me up w/your email and I'll send it to ya...or someone hook me up w/some spce to get it hosted.

The video will shock you, his internals are SHOT TO ****!

 

NEVERMIND!

E46 Vs. GSX

 

Im sure there are a couple of heavily modded GSXs that could beat a couple of stock M3s but it would not be the norm. E46 M3 333hp stock do the math.
