As for the rolling start at a "drag race" as said by another guy on here WTF? That isn't a drag race then. Besides the fact you drive an Evo which is made to go fast around corners on any surface, it wasn't a car designed for straight line pulls... IMHO if your drag racing then you bought the wrong car and your wasting it's potential.
Not true. Go to youtube and lookup the Texas Invitational. Its a private runway event in which they start from 40-60mph rolling starts. Its not sanctioned but it is 100% entirely legal.

Are you really that dense? You know he was talking out his **** because we all know the this whole topic tip-toes on the forum rules, and talking about street racing is not allowed.

He was totally not serious. We have two tracks in Phx both are traditional as you would expect, but he was totally playing on the rules of the forum.

He and I both know that here in the SW there are stretches of highway that go hundreds of miles that are just cacti and rattlesnakes. Given the right area, you can do what's against the policies of the forum.

This thread really needs to be locked up. The whole point was a technical "What is it? How it is done? Why can my 11+ X not do it? All those questions were asked and are searchable for newbs now.

So its safe to say that 11+ Evos are not optimal for roll racing...

Maybe better to consider what you're trying to roll-on, and what it's gear ratio and power is.
