FWIW, our 1/4 mile ET was a 12.2, not a 12.7. Just a stock EVO with a Stage 1+ engine package.

Really? Ugh.. that sucks. FWIW, our best run was really a 12.1 but it averaged out to a 12.2 when compared to the other runs.

We entered a customer's Stg 1+ car (ez76) for the competition. He was nice enough to let us use it as our back-up car just in case our last-minute slam to get our red shop car (now OTC and One Lap workhorse) ready. The red car did run just before we left for the shootout in LA but there wasn't nearly enough testing time to feel confident with it. I think it would've done well considering what it had done in the past but Shiv is a pretty cautious guy when it comes to things like this. His argument was that it would be better to enter a stock car with a $3500 bolt-on engine package and make good power than enter an EVO with $20,000 of mods everywhere and not perform as well as it could have if it were properly set-up (suspension, tuning, tires, etc,.)

They had an engine problem after the dyno runs so all their performance figures suffered. The road course test was done the next day with a replacement motor that they managed to get installed overnight

Because while everyone else ran hoosiers, they ran toyo proxes RA-1 they have a sponsorship deal for they didnt want to disrupt.

Not to mention they also had a faulty Walbro 255 that wouldn't hold consistent fuel pressure, resulting in dyno pulls all over the place.
