You can go run nitroethane in your car and nobody will know when you post up the video.

People are taking this stuff way to serious. Most of these cars do not fit in with any class of racing very well. In case you missed it above... I remember when David/Dan cared about import racing. That time is not now. If I am wrong I am sorry, but the black car is mainly meant to showcase the power that they are capable of making. Not blowing up rear ends while trying to get from A to B now is just one less thing to worry about.
For the evoM top 15 or whatever it is list that Mike is taking care of for the community.

The weight rules, fuel tests, tires sizes are all what makes it competitive.. None of which can be done for list of Quickest and Fastest Evos on EVOM..

Alot of lies are told about weight turbos etc, I don't beleive it unless I see it.

It's funny how in the sanctioned events where the testing of fuel and measuring of wheels and weight of vehicle is checked after every pass takes place the picture is a little different. Evo guys aren't into racing, they are into marketing. You make a pass by yoursef at your home track hold it on the 2 step for 5 mins till you can launch it perfect then bam!!

There is a nopi class called turbo street that so called street cars can run in. Good luck seeing too many of these evos in that, and there is a reason.......

A friend of mine who was reading EVOm today sent me a PM. He doesn't post much here but has been around DSM's/EVO's for about 14 years.

He suggested we start the "Tin Can Special Class". This would be a seperate class to the "Outlaw" class that has been suggested and will have a place for all the cars that have been completely destroyed from being cut up, drilled, hammered, pop riveted and glued back together. Hell we can even allow duct tape and velcro in that class

Different classes? This is not a racing series it is evom, your fast or your not.... everyone needs to nut up and stop crying like a bunch of girls. Go race your car. If you not fast enough to make a stupid list, get faster don't just create a new list, that is the ***** way to do things.

honestly evom seems like a bunch of preteen girls lately

Another from the northwest has spoken.. I was told it was all of ohio and only BR affiliates that was behind BR yet i am seeing constant posts from the NW and all over that seems to say the same.. i think the tantrum has subsided and things will return back to normal..as the old corny saying goes.. " if you wanna run with the big dogs, get off the porch "..
