That looks like a RS front diff. I've broken a few also. Did the ring and pinion break any teeth off or any root cracks on the teeth?

Where is the video of this pass cause none of those in the video are gonna breakdown like that. That is badass either way 5.9 is good for a low 9 second pass or high 8 second pass. What was the 330' on this certain pass?

why does the car eat spark plugs?

This car has been in the high 8's a few times. We are going to do better eventually.

We will post slips and everything else next time we hit the track when we make some full passes.

We don't run iridium or platinum plugs...put it that way. We change the plugs every 2 or 3 passes. It was more of a joke.

Hey car looks good. I know its hard to maintain a car at this level but it sounds like you guys have the drive to meet your goals. I hope to see some evos running this year that are more then a 1-2 hit wonder.

A couple of ??? Has the car ran 8s with you or only those very few times with Dave. Also is it being sprayed now? What mph in the 1/8 there is nothing ground braking here no need to be shady.

Btw- here a tip if you plan to get that car to the end in one peace tell the driver this is no Honda learn to load the car and use the clutch.

I know what the car has done and I know what it can do. There is no reason why some of these evo's shouldnt be running deep into the 8's with the power they make along with being able to put the power down so early on the track.


Not really sure what it about the plugs that you have to change them so often but to each his own.


Can you post the slip or video of that 5.9 1/8th mile pass? I am more so interested in the 330 and the 1/8 mph then anything.


Dogboxracing- honda guys have to load the clutch too, lol.
