Ran with one today at NJMP - last session.

And it twern't Draaaggg Racing

 

I believe there are a few people on this forum who have ran mid 12s on a bone stock Evo. I'd consider that impressive given the fact that it makes under 300awhp and weighs 3200 or more lbs. A car making over 700 ft-lbs of torque @ 2k, weighing around 3300 lbs, riding on DRs and running a 10.0 isn't impressive. Another impressive feat is a 3200 lb car making 670awhp running 9.1.

 

I haven't seen anyone post a 12.5 or so on a stock Evo, the fastest I've seen is a 12.9ish. Where is this full weight Evo running 9.1? Also look at the trap speeds.

 

This is basically a stage 1 car doing 10.0's.... I'm sure they havent had a ton of seat time either, I put money it improves another 2-4 tenths. Headerback is probably going to unlease another 70-100whp and put the car into deep 9's while still being completely reliable and daily drivable.

We're talking about a car that has next to nothing done that will probably still get warrantied when it goes to the shop for trouble. I wish i had that, I wouldnt be afraid to mod. A friend of mine with a GTO blew a strut after adding springs and they replaced all his struts then aligned his car under warranty.

 

Dyno is just a tuning device for all we know the dyno could read high!! The car went 10.0's@141 in normal air and will go 9's in normal air. FWIW, the northeastern guys have a a few ZR-1's in their ranks and expect 9.50's-9.60's in the air up there with bolt ons.

Saying a car isn't running to its potential is one thing. Throwing in the EVO comment is what made it retarded!! How many full interior, street tired, pump gas, A/C included, EVO's are out there running 10.0's@141mph anyway?

I can count 1 car!! I like EVOs alot (for what they are) Most Wanted's latest times are unreal, but this is a bolt on car running what it just did is very impressive, and this is the first time at the track.

 

What 3200lb car would that be? I want to know make sure you reference the one with DR's and A/C too okay:-)

 

Bad Bish.

 

Link?

 

As impressive as Dave's car is it doesn't fit the criteria. So, go back to the drawing board and find me a full weight EVO with A/C that runs 10.0's@141mph on pump gas not using quicktime pros or motorcycle slicks.

I already no the answer, but let's see if you can find it

 

Well published...

Criteria? Ok...there is no sense in continuing this discussion. You have your opinions and I have mine.

Last comment: I would be one pissed off person if I spent over $125k on a car only to run 10s (maybe high 9s on a good day).

 

And what's the mod list for that car?

 

Its provided in the video...as well as in numerous threads on this forum.

 

And yet you spent 30000$ on a hopped up Lancer that runs 13s (12s on a good day). The ZR1 is a super car, people spend double to get less performance.
Some nice comparison stats
Aston Martin DBS (276000$)
4.1 0-60 MPH
12.4 1/4 mile at 115 MPH
191 MPH top speed

Bugatti Veyron (1482000$)
2.6 0-60 MPH
10.2 1/4 mile at 143 MPH
253 MPH top speed

Corvette ZR1 (117000$)
3.3 0-60 MPH
11.4 1/4 mile at 125 MPH
205 MPH top speed

Ferrari Enzo (652000$)
3.3 0-60 MPH
11.1 1/4 mile at 133 MPH
218 MPH top speed

Mercedes SLR McLaren (455000$)
3.5 0-60 MPH
11.5 1/4 mile at 126 MPH
207 MPH top speed

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution GSR (33000$)
4.9 0-60 MPH
13.6 1/4 mile at 100.9 MPH
162 MPH top speed

Yeah the ZR1 sure is a disappointment . Here's a nice stat, the ZR1 reaches 100 MPH in 7.4 seconds, the Evo takes 13.3 seconds to accomplish the same thing.

 

^ Your idiocy is not worth quoting. Thanks for being the prototypical jackass.
