I raced one at Orlando speedway.

He ran a 14.630 @95.52 mph with a 2.198 60foot
The only visible engine mods I saw he had was a KN sri.

I don't know how well you drive but I don't think a stock evo should have any trouble.

Edit
Not really sure if it was the R/T version though. I just know it was a magnum.

Yeah, if I were the guy with the magnum and my car was really fast, I'd sandbag the guy racing for $100 and just win by a bit to get the guy racing for 1G all cocky. Then I'd blow his doors off (b/c you are racing for 1g in a wagon, something is DEFINITELY up) and be up 1100 bucks

when someone brings up big money like that in a race I'M ALWAYS SUSPICIOUS.

See if he'l let you inspect his car before hand, if he won't then don't race him.

First off, I am a quiet guy and do not talk crap about my car saying it is faster than anything on the street. Apparently other people do though. My buddy's brother just came over telling me that someone wants to race me for $1000. I don't have that kind of cash but my buddy's bro does. The car in question here is a Dodge Magnum Hemi V8, not specified what transmission, not too sure how the car is built. Anyway, the race will be conducted on a closed course sometime in the future. How do you guys think I will do? Mods are in my sig.
If you fall for this and race him w/o Knowing more info you deserve to lose your money.

ok, take the best of both worlds. Instead of asking a friend to race him, have a friend go look at his setup. That way, you have someone besides his brother to tell you more info.

Sorry for the misinformation here people. The person doing the big money talk did so on my behalf without me knowing. He was the one that offered the bet.

BTW IE Evo: I'm not an idiot. You just looked waaaaaaayyyyyy beyond the question.
