Yeah, the RNR car is a major beast. I think it's over 750hp. Those socal guys aren't really into to drag racing though. So I don'tknow how aggressive they are on trying to lower their numbers.

topnotchevo,


What is your best 1/4 mile time so far? still the 11.7? When are you going to take your car to the track with your new setup? Are you afraid something is going to break?, I understanfd you drive the car on the streets but the kind of power you are making makes it liable for easy breakdowns.

We are having a Dyno tunningday with Al(Dynoflash) on Dec 3rd and Dec 4th at Vividracing. Why don't you bring your beast to the Dyno and break some records?

Carlos

It is quite possible that RNR (actually a customer) has the quickest EVO in the West and I actually do have them on the 11.99 and faster list, but the 10.6@123 time brought about a tremedous amount of controversy when it was first posted nearly a year and a half ago. The main point of controversy was the trap speed, which is very low for a 10 second car. Then there was Doug Parks, who I previously mentioned has ran a 10.8@132MPH. When his EVO first cracked 10s, it too also had a very low trap speed (10.9@122MPH) and I would have questioned the legitmacy of the time if it were not for the fact that I was actually there to witness the run in person. As you can see eventually his MPH increased to more match his power and this could be the same case for the RNR customer. If he continued racing his car, perhaps his MPH would increase also and his E.T. lower but I do not think he ever raced his car again at the drag strip. So I guess it's up to you, RNR customer or Doug Parks, either way they both have very fast cars. Both are located in Southern California I believe.

Doug Parks is clearly the west coast king at the moment. He has run in the 10's twice at two different dates. No one else has ever backed up their fast time (ie, RnR's 10.6 at 123).

Hey whatever happened to TopnotchEvo doing 10's?

10.6 at 123 is possible. Ive seen faster with a lower mph at sanctioned races in the past.
