question about 1/4 mile and evo
Shiv stated
"Newsflash: The STi that I saw dyno'd made substantially more power than the EVO. And not suprisingly, it's also a bit quicker and faster in the 1/4 mile, despite having to shift into 5th gear well before the trap. Compared to the STi, power output isn't the EVO's strong point. But that should be old news by now."
My question isnt about the sti. It is what gear are you guys in when you finish the 1/4?
4th or 5th? If 4th that means that the sti has one more shift to go through than the evo does in the quarter.
Thanks,
Dan
