Eclipse GSX - Streets of Willow Springs - 1/9/11 GoPro HD

Running my 99 Eclipse GSX @ SoW with ExtremeSpeed track events in black run group. This track day was really just a shakedown to test out the car. The car did well with no real problems, and the prototype hood-ducted radiator setup really worked! Coolant temps stayed in the 190's even in traffic! Before the next track day I need better bads (Carbotech XP12's) and I'll be replacing all suspension bushings, arms, and wheel bearings.

@do3pwnage Different run groups (experience levels) allow different types of passing or no passing at all. Since I was just testing out the car this day, I was in an intermediate run group which only allows passing on straightaways and only when the driver you are going to pads gives you a "point by" meaning he motions with his hand that you can pass him, and which side to pass on. They are then supposed to let off the gas to let you pass.

Nice runs also how did you do that dsmlink overlay... very impressive.

[99EclipseGSX]

@PotholesInMyLawn I used a program called Faststone Capture to record the DSMLink screen and then used Sony Vegas to overlay it on the video

Ever compete in time attacks?

@Rockit181 Hoping to this year or next. That's what I'm slowly building/prepping the car for.

[GTAFORTHEWORLD]

[GTAFORTHEWORLD]

@DannyBoySwagg13 Yeah, I know its sick lol! :D and yeah, the eagle talon tsi is HOT aswell, but if I don't find a gsx, I'll rather get a eagle talon tsi WITH turbo! that car needs a turbo to sound a little bit cooler! but turbos and exhaust-systems are pretty god damn expensive!! :( but u knoooow me a little, so I would save as fuuuuck! :D haha! daaaamn im pumped up now! I saw an gsx driving by me and my brother like a week ago! when he clamped the gas pedal and shifed gears i heard like "TSSSH"
