Seems pretty obvious that the Evo is a great handling car, but I haven't heard anything specific about stability above 100 mph. Anyone have any opinions on stability at those speeds?

 

There have been a few posts on this foum that indicate that the Evo is very stable at high speeds. One guy from Britain posted a picture of his speedometer pegged at 170 mph (he owns an FQ-340, I think). He said that it didn't feel that fast at all...

 

i felt safe at 130 but a lot can go wrong above 100

 

I hit 90 today and didn't feel anything. >.> It felt slow actually. My friend sed so too haha maybe it's just that good. =P

 

this is where the giant wing comes in handy

 

Never a problem.......not that I have but you could go over 100 mph for hours (driving cross country) and it would feel rock solid.

 

The wing adds a lot of downforce at those speeds, so the back end is planted. The front end seems a tad bit lighter. If youre worried about the front end not being planted enough, get some canards or a splitter. I got a set of apr canards and they make the car feel much better at those speeds.

 

All I got to say is 130-140 car feels planted......160 is a different story!

 

the evo feels pretty stable cruising at 100+, but under hard braking at those speeds, the back end can get really squirelly.

 

155 feeeeeeels GREAT

 

Get a apr splitter and you will feel that bad boy doing its job above 100+....

 

i went 155 and it felt slow and steady

 

150+ no probs. just make sure you have good tires

 

i hope it feels steady at 90... thats like normal commuting speed on 495 and the pike in MA.

 

very stable car @150
