I wish we hadn't messed up our black car so badly. I can bolt doors on it and weld a core support in it, that would fix 99% of what we did, we didn't really cut much on the car. The rear end though......................that was a $17,000 mistake right there. My street car has better sixty foot times than our drag car.

A mistake only if you dont figure it out. This is where the V8 boys can shed some light because a 4 link is like a rubiks cube Just hire someone for some expert advice....

I want an 8 second sticker. I decided to save the money a 9 second sticker would cost me and go straight to the 8.

You wont have to worry about that rear end coming apart at least.

Its like being a cub scout, you need to do the activity and get it signed off on before you can wear the patch

Precisely why I said I wanted the 8 second sticker. If I get the sticker, the car will have already run the 8. It took too long to earn my name, so I'm not going through that again.

David - just to clarify

Javier Ortega the former director of the now defunct NHRA Sport Compact Racing Program and now promotor of the Honda Day at ATCO Raceway was actually the first to install such a wing on an Evo.

Although his Evo did not really have much success as a drag car to date, it was equiped with a full cage and also the now infamous rear deck wing way back in late 2004 or early 2005.

The only time I saw it racing, it was being driven by some employee of TT and I raced it with my Evo and knocked it out of the semi finals of the WRX vs EVO Shootout.

Later, he - Javier - swapped his rear deck lid to Turbo Trixs who now uses it (in exchange for a carbon rear deck lid).

Not a big deal, but just wanted to set the record straight.
