nice vid, its amazing what a mildly modded evo can do with decent driving. When i had my stock turbo, i only got passed once or twice in group 4 HPDE. I remember having a tough time trying to keep up with Dave Browns spoon rsx. Hes 10x the driver i am but i was able to stay with him for a few laps with my stage 1+ evo on 255s.

dont get a turbo upgrade for road racing, lag, even 5-800 rpms is not as fun as stock insta spool.

Scorke,

Does that sound safe to you:

"You sure did. Riding in that thing was a bit sketchy. We lost brakes going into 10a and off-roaded a bit. Also getting on 2 wheels (big time) going over the curbing in 3 was enjoyable, haha. "

As I said this Exploder should not have been on the track. Shame on NASA for allowing it

Just to clear things up about some of the questions concering the supra and porsche.

Supra was driven by Leh, 540whp, Hoosier rs05 tires 285 front/335 rear fastest lap a 1:33.5

Porsche 993tt (not gt2) 440+rwhp driven by me toyo ra1 shaved 245 front 305 rear fastes lap 1:34.2


Both cars are daily drivers for thier owners.



STF, you ran a 39? thats smoking. I was up there again a week ago and in what would be a ttb car and ran a 39.8. I'll bet those tta-ttu guys would not be happy with your 4door grocery getter beating their times

Yeah actually it does sound safe.....The person that posted that, Devin, SoloEvo happened to be my roomate, again it was safe considering the situation, which was a NASA worker driving an Explorer on track. To be honest, I think the scariest moment of that day would have to be Leh's pass of a dude who clearly didnt see him on the grass, brass *****.....

Man, I felt like I was in the race with you after watching that video. I like how you passed the socalled "muscle cars " and the only ones that looked like a worthy opponent against you was that "Supra" and that
Porsche @ the end of the race. Good job anyways
