Yeah, I ran twice. I was waaaay too worried about the stock clutch, so I got two high 2.0's and two 13.6's @ 102/103mph.

I chalk it up to by pussie launches and my tune being for 4,800ft as opposed to LVMS' 2,200ft (?), but that could just be me making ricer excuses. Oh well, I'm ordering the 3" TBE this week, it'll get better.

Good meeting you too, I'm sure I'll be out there again before the end of the year, hell, I'm even thinking of moving back...

black evo was showing off his launch conrol and blew his engine... i think i have a picture of the hole in his block...

still, i called it and they both f^cked up their launches....

it was funny, the guy is like this is 2006 evo 8, me and my buddy justin are like, well then it would be an evo 9, and hes like trust me its an '06. then we look on the sticker and it said 2005 evolution 8. the guy didnt know what he was talking about...

i have pictures, but am on my laptop, and have to go to school tomorow. so. yeah ill post them tomorrow.

overal, Silver evo won, black evo blew his engine + coolant hose (cool green coolant all over las vegas blvd.)

over and out

quick pick of the black evo being built up

The silver evo did not screw up his launch at all. We have a video of it in our forum. He actually came out quite nice. Martin and Eric from AMS were on the build and tune team for the silver evo. Martin tuned it. The black evo actually blew its head gasket in 3rd gear on that pull. 30 pounds of boost and a 100 shot on stock studs is a big no no. He decided to finish it off with the anit lag at the return of the race.
