evo 8 vs aston martin db9
i went on a party bus last night and met one of my close friend's father. we were all just talking having a good time and all the sudden he starts talking about my car saying how he would rip me a new one in a 1/8th mile race. i then said every thursday night irwindale speedway has 1/8th mile races. so we decided that we will do this this week at the track. my current mods are a turboback exhuast, intake, upeper intercooler pipe, and boost control at 20 psi. his db9 is 100% stock. what do you guys all think?

A db9 is rated at 450hp at a curb weight of a spec'd 3769 (!)
Considering Aston claims a 4.9 second 0-60 sprint and thats what our Evos are best at, and this is a short race...he's going to have one very quiet ride home.
Between now and then try and get some sort of fuel management accomplished and i think you'll see a surprised aston owner.

Let me rephrase that, kind of...
I dont think its going to be an embarrassment. I just dont believe that that car is THAT much faster from a standing start.
All this is assuming you know how to drive, of course.
