Gates311: World's Fastest Evo X.

While out at Infineon Raceway this week doing some testing, we decided to try the car out on the strip. With a T/A race coming later this week, I took it super easy on the launch, but then ripped it once I was off the line.

The result? 11.2 at 137.6mph!!!

The previous record was a 10.17 at 135.9, coincidentally by another AMS 900x package powered car. No tweaks to my Road Course tune, we just ran it as is and it spanked! The car will be setup FOR drag racing for a few runs again later this year, in hopes to become the worlds Quickest AND Fastest Evo X.

very nice. i think that 60' tells a big part of the story of what this car is capable of w/ a 1.5-1.6 60'.

good shakedown pass.

His 60ft was on purpose. He has a race this weekend and doesn't want to launch the car. Most drag team do the same thing when they first build a car. You don't try and break records on the first pass of a motor.

if it had a good launch it would probably still run 137MPH, it would just be in the 10's.
