Ah, well I was giving you and the others the benefit of the doubt. I thought by saying that most evos were running 13.7-14.1 that you meant the times there were much slower than normal, which would better explain your 13.15@105 with mods.

Since my 13.17@103.89 was on my first try, I would like to think this is a fairly easy time to get (05 only of course) in stock form, but there were no other Evos at the track, so I had no baseline to compare to.

 

i guess the only way to slove this mystery is to be at the same track and compare, there are to many factors to consider, only a direct comparaison on the same track, same day would help us find out what s going on.

 

Agreed, lets have a huge Evo track day at Moroso! I'm talking big! I wanna see EVERY evo there!

 

I'm about 170 lbs and my friend is perhaps 10-15 lbs heavier at most. Both cars were as stock as they come but like I mentioned I have the sun and sound package which adds a bit of weight. I removed the spare tire, tools & jack to counter this. My friend's STi had 3/4 tank of gas (+50-60 lbs), the spare tire, tools & Jack (+40 lbs?), as well as a child seat (20 lbs?) all of which didn't help his cause.




So far the clutch seems just fine with no signs of weakness on the street. If I were to bring this car to the dragstrip weekly I'm sure I could change that in a hurry.
