Epic EVO WINS Local import event..

Well we got the Evo back together a few weeks ago and put a real safe conservative tune in it to break it in.. Ended up going to the local import race this last Sunday and some how ended up Qualifing #2 and racing the #1 Qualifier for the win!!

Here are some of the results.. This was using a .400 pro tree and straight heads up with one power adder and D.o.t. tires anything else goes basically.. I was using drag radials and the track sucked Typically i get pretty consistant 1.55-1.59 60fts.

1st Round of Qualifing
ME (other EVO)
.095 R/T.....VS..... .245 r/t
1.666 60ft .......... 1.848 60ft
4.540 330ft......... 5.213 330ft
6.943 1/8............ 7.984 1/8
101.26 MPH......... 88.96 MPH
9.004 1000ft....... 10.404
10.725 1/4.......... 12.575
131.70 MPH......... 105.67

2nd Qual..
ME SUPRA
.108 R/T......VS... .824 R/T -SUPRA
1.640 60FT ........ 1.593 60FT
4.525 330........... 4.368 330
6.910 1/8 .......... 6.662 1/8
103.67 MPH........ 109.29 MPH
8.947 1000FT...... 8.601
10.667 1/4.......... 10.249 1/4
131.47 MPH ........ 138.07 MPH

1ST ROUND VS A BLUE EVO (First time ever to the track)
He rolled through the lights by accendent so i looked back and the staging guy waved me on, well i guess i was suppose to wait for the light even though he waved me through.. so they had us re run.. Had to hot lap the car..
results..
ME Blue EVO
.219 r/t........ .554r/t
1.580 60ft.... 1.738 60ft
4.501 330..... 5.299 330ft
6.935 1/8..... 8.369 1/8
101.01 mph.. 80.62 mph
9.021 1000ft. 11.025 1000ft
10.776 1/4... 13.193 1/4
128.76 mph.. 105.51 mph
WIN

2nd round vs.. shawn with a 2g dsm. I hope someone got this on camera as i was WAY sideways leaving the line..lol

ME VS. DSM
.292 r/t ...... .352 r/t
1.639 60ft... 2.033 60ft
4.594 330.... 5.279 330
7.043 1/8.... 7.7791/8
100.09mph.. 98.10mph
9.148 1000ft 9.911 1000ft
10.922 1/4.. 11.728 1/4
127.35 mph. 119.62 mph..

I was running out of fuel on the top end (Tank was almost empty) and it went lean so i put a few gallons of E-85 in it.

3rd round Raced Steve in his STI.
ME vs STI
.277r/t.... Red light..

I let out when i saw the win light at the top of 3rd gear coasted to a 12.4@84.83..

Final round.. vs John in a Supra. I completly guessed on the tune because it had been going lean in 4th gear the previous two runs (LOW FUEL) i had been adding fuel.. The run against the STI it was really rich so for this run i took some fuel back out of it.. Still was way rich but made a solid pass..

ME VS. Supra
.160 r/t......... .454 r/t
1.685 60ft..... 1.646 60ft
4.708 330..... 4.841 330
7.211 1/8 ..... 7.405 1/8
97.97mph...... 99.07 mph
9.355 1000ft. 9.465 1000ft
11.144 1.4..... 11.258 1/4
126.59 mph... 123.78 mph

Margin of victory .4088.. I was able to drive the car to and from the track yesterday then to work this morning..

Probably one of the best events i have ever been too and it was a local one.. Anyways I just figured i would post up the results. Hoping to get the car to a test and tune in the next couple week to completly dial it in.. But I'm happy to have it back up and running...

I'll try to post some videos as they become available..

Wanted to say thanks to everyone at CarzPerformance.com for building an awesome motor for me!!! Lucas, Doug, Nathan, and Samantha.. You guys rock!!!Also thanks to Jackstransmission.com for building a transmission and t case that has held up better than i have EVER expected and i do put it through HELL!!

Im suprised the Supra beat your 60 foot and then you were faster at the traps. I would expect the opposite.
