So I heard a rumor...

I recently heard that there was a white Evo that took out a Enzo fairly recently on the 1/4 mile in the NY area. I know its possible, but I want a video of that. Did ne1 get that on vid??

why is this such a shocker to you.... lots of modded evo's are running 11's... enzo runs low 11's from stock also... and since its alot easier to launch the evo with its 4wd.... i wouldnt be surprised if modded evo's edge out the enzo from start.

If a pro driver gets 11.1 what you think an average owner going to get. Probably high 11s with a 128 trapspeed on a very conservative launch etc. See it all the time. Low 12 sec cars runnin high 12s to mid 13s all day. Modena down here was bustin high 13s and even did a 14.5 i believe.

i'd like to see the owner who actually raced his enzo on a 1/4 mile and shake his hand for not letting it be a garage queen

I think if you have never seen an Enzo in person, pictures in magazines do NOT do it justice...i don think i would go as far as say ugly but to each his own. When you actually see one, the thing is NUTS.

Gotta luv Ferrari guys that actually drive their cars...not to many of them out there! (Hopefully I will be one one day!)

Guys, think about this, even IF the Enzo lost, that owner still gets to drive home in an Enzo and you are driving home in an Evo, nothing wrong with an Evo but put things in perspective.....

Which would you rather be doing? Personally id rather drive home in a slightly slower Enzo knowing that Im driving a Ferrari that is stock than an Evo that I know is highly modded.

Not only that, but a "slightly slower" Enzo ain't that slow Still, it's cool to beat a tremendously expensive Exotic with a 2L 4-door, which is the point...

Evo vs Enso? is like a mosquito vs Prancing horse. I like the evo, but there's no comparison. Myop
