Hey,I bought this 93 Eagle Talon from this guy Chris in Hamilton.I'm not sure exactly what s done to it, but she flies. Having a few probs with it recently, but that's ok,she's worth every penny of it.He told me to come to this site and mention Craig Watson,I suppose he's the one who has all the knowledge, but i'm hoping someone here can help me out.Thanx.

Site works fine, wow that guy reLLY TOOK CAR OF HER. I knew there was some work done on her at Wildgoose Racing, but they didn t tell me much, it was over 4 years ago they said. That's definitely my car, but she has hyper black Falken rims now, a SBR 3500 clutch and EVO 16G turbo. Anyone know how quick she was in the 1/4 before ? And yes, it is still in great condition. I might be selling it when the few lil probs she has are fixed though. These cars are very high maintenance and I think I got myself into a lil something i'm not very good at. Although,i'd like to take her out to the track to she how she goes b4 I part ways ( if that happens at all ).

I hear ya on that one. Maybe the guy was in a rush or soemthing. Maybe a stupid dos eof "road rage". No excuses for the guy though, I just know that I have my issues as well, we all do. Really, the only place that is entirely safe is the track,but people do have their fun. Yeah, I picked up the car with rims for $8300. Well worth it in my opinion, she runs very well and she does fly.

"I think Craig Watson was running 13 flat...then again...I think. With the setup he had at the time...not sure what setup the car has now."
Last I heard was 13.7s.
I know FEW people who took as much care of their cars as Craig did.
Now, I'll have all kinds of time to talk about DSMs, because I won't be busy fixing mine!
