Default The Gran Prix

yes the family beater the gran prix has gained my respect today and is now longer not called the gran POS. On my way from work a few mins ago i was minding my own business and then this eclipse rs comes up next to me and revved, i was like shit im going to lose, but ill try anyways. so the light turned green and i floored it, AND THE WHEELS SPUN!!!!! i was like oh shit torque steer. it completly caught me off gaurd. but the best part was i hit 2nd gear and pulled on his ass that made my ****ing night!!! i couldnt belive the gran pos and won its first race with me i was like 3.1L has some power to her. so yea im pretty thrilled about that..

so i was like hmmmm and then saw a turn comming up at the light so i stopped and it turned green and so i punch it and turn the wheel, and this fukin car busts out with screetching tires and i think i saw a lil smoke i was like godamn car! and so i controled the torque steer around the corner and was like godamn....



all in all i guess the moral of the story is, even though a car looks like a pos, dont underestimate it until you put it under certain circumstances.

2002 gran prix 3.1L.

Eclipse > Grand Prix. No matter what it looked like I would always take eclipse over the grand prix. The driver of the elipse needs to learn how to drive.
