Hell I never thought of that 
Next time I race I am going to tell the person I am going to **** them if I lose. I bet I win every race from here on out.

I know that the bigger motor will pull harder on the big end but if he has enough room the evo should start catching back up with the 6mph difference on top end. am I way off base here?

I think what Slav meant is that he lost on the pick-up but won on the top end... which is what i expected because the M3 has the electronic shifter and can shift **** fast.... but good run Slav... do some tune up and play him again...
And stop ****ing ppl when u lose..

For us its like 1st----2nd-----3rd------4th-------5th
For M3 its like 1st--2nd---3rd----4th-----5th
(For us to shift 2nd to 3rd takes maybe 1/2 to 1 sec whereas M3 takes 1/20th of a sec! No need to declutch/shift/reclutch!)
I recently tried a friend's unmodified brand new M3 and tried it coz someone told me about it and i was skeptical... but after trying it... damn... if only i could put on of those in the EVO...

You should win pretty easy from my experience with a E46 M3. I have just a flash and turboback. We didn't even launch but rolled on in first. He could start to catch up after 5th but buy then you should have a very good lead .

The e46 m3 has very long legs. I raced one in my c32 with the mods in my sig and he was not too far behind me well into the 170's (I assume he had an ecu upgrade as well).
I would think you may get him on the launch and that is it...I just picked up my Evo last night, it only has 500 miles and is still pretty tight but I can tell that my c32 would sloughter it as it stands right now (I'm going to be changing that shortly
).
Your mods may have overcome this attribute, but stock the Evo really falls on its face in the top end.
Good luck, it will be fun either way

seven years later....lol .i ran a m3 last night from a 30 roll and beat him pretty well.
i used to dream about the e46 but you know what after owning a lot of integras, civics bmw is not that great. sure they look nice and get the girls..but what the hell do the girls know (most anyway) i was gonna get an 335i but after doing research i decided not to..lots of ppl were complaining about fuel pump problems,transmission problems,and other crap. i mean these are the new ones!
my brother has a 540 i that thing breaks down every other day and costs him thousand in repairs!! i have an evo ix but you know what the best car i have ever owned was a 2000 nighthawk black Acura Integra Type R.
The only bad part of the itr was that when i wanted to go fast it woke up the whole neiborhood..but god i miss that car...best car ever made ever. period. and you have to own one to know what i mean
