    Here are the stats:

    - 2000 Mitsubishi Galant ES
    -2.4L 4cyl
    -Not Lowered
    -CAI
    -Greddy SP2 Exhaust
    -No System
    -Everything else is stock
    -Evo CF Hood



    - 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse RS (Formerly GST but he had blown engine)
    -2.0L 4cyl
    -Stock intake
    -Custom Exhaust

    I want to know my odds in this race. I will be racing him this friday just for fun though. He is an RS with Automatic tranny. Any comments...

    Chuck Norris will kick your ass head to head without a car. And I'm talking about that kind of head to head by 3 lengths ;)

    Count it as a win for your 8g.

    420a A/T 2g Eclipse doesn't have a chance.

    Well I haven't smoked the RS yet, he didn't show up. I did have another hooked up Galant DE that wanted to race me, so I came out winning top end and on the third gear just murdered him. It was fun, that's 2 4cyls I've beaten with my Galant

    The 420a RS/GS eclipse motor sucks but so does a stock 4g64. The 420a was only rated at 140hp and the 2g eclipse was not a light car. You should be able to take him, but not by a lot. It will mostly depend on the driving.
