Ohio race sum up - Evos beat the STI's - big time !
 

I think the STI tuning world needs a serious wake up call

Its been 7 months since the 1st WRX vs. EVO Shootout at Raceway park . . . . .

The Evos got faster with 5 (FIVE) Evos in the 10's

Buschur shop evo, Curt Brown, AMS, Daevo tuning and My own Dyno Flash Evo 8

Two STI's bearly broke into the 11's - it seems they are getting slower, not faster

After a few passes of time trials - all the WRX's lined up in the staging lanes for the heads up WRX vs. EVO class started to realize they were info a slaughter and they all moved over to the bracket class except for two brave souls who were disapatched in the first round.

I love those WRX's - and STI's but the tuners of those cars need to wake up and get to work

Its a shame to see so many guys with so many mods and parts going so slow

As for the evos - some notable events

Curt Brown breaks the stock turbo record with a 10.9 something ! Amazing

Buschur Shop Evo goes 10.9 with STOCK Wheels and tires - outragous

AMS goes 10.006 fisrt time out with new set up and nos

MY CAR goes 10.18 @ 141.8 with full interior - full Buschur exhuast and NO nos - that alcohol kit really helps you on the track - even with race gas due to the intercooling effect

It was a great race - hopefully those WRX's will have more game for us in August at www.racewaypark.com for the 3rd WRX vs. EVO shootout

If I have to we will make the evos run on 3 cylinders to make it a race (jokes) :lol: Seriously - the STI tuners have work to do !

congrats on your 10.18 Al. And congrats to everyone else that put the smack down on the scubies.

Al,

Are you still an ECU-tek authorized installer.....it's disappeared from your sig?

WOW!! Nice to see Curt got into the 10's!!! Impressive to say the least!!

Congrats to all the Evo's who demolished the scoobies

subies can't play with evos anywayz.this should of just been an evo Vs. evo shootout :lol:

Congrats to everyone. And sorry to the Subies who got spanked again.

Yup, wez gona layz a hurtin' again dis Saturday, yup :)

Hahahahahahaha...Evos Rule the hizouse.








Forshizzle.

hmmm, let's see, the Evo has been around with basically the same motor for years and there are loads of off the shelf goodies to choose from that even a home mechanic can throw on and get big numbers.

stack all that Evo tuning experience / knowledge against the STi and its US only motor and ~2 years of tuning experience and i'd say it's a pretty uneven battle at this point.

which is one of the reasons why i went with the Evo!!! :D

Actually - I think the advantage has more to do with the nature of the basic design and lay out of the engine and turbo

The parts are there for STI's and they have an inherently torque building motor.. and 1/4 more displacement. Please no excuses... so many fans of WRC also turned to the evo for their street car since it still has a 2.0 not like the STI with its 2.5.

sounds like lots of fun
so every couple months there is going to be another wrx evo shootout?
and is it just the base wrx models or are some stis there as well?

i cant wait for saturday

way to go al, bow down subie ownz

I think the WRX is just ugly, like an ugly girl. Ugly girls arent going to preform well for you becuase you know they are just ugly. Same with the car, it's ugly and weather it has the capabilities normally, the uglyness just ruins it.
