...  I would add, go to the 1/4mile track any weekend....  Not a lot of money
(sub 1K) is spent on the Mitsu/Eagle eclipse/talons and it IS the cult car of
hot rod choice these days....  2 liters pushing 400hp (and yes, very
driveable), no nitrous, just IC, computer and turbo mods....  Inexpensive and
very fast....  I saw a couple last Sunday blasting 12's all day long, then
drove home, driver barely had peach fuzz on his face.....  These things fly,
us big block ol' farts with Carter carb mentality are way out in left field,
Mass Air sensor programming and computer tables rule the track these days....
  

Darn kids these days.....
