Yea...my god, I would cry If I bounced off the rev limiter. The cost of fixing a ferrari is more than the damn car itself. I believe redline is 8K.

That is not bad being able to hang with a car that cost well over $100,000 more. Stock or not.

its possible...i cant see the video for some reason...but the evo isnt much slower stock than a 360....ive sort of had alot of time behind the wheel of both cars...each car is amazing in its own way...the 360 is like a 4 wheel crotch rocket where the evo is like a fine edged razor.....but nothing and I mean NOTHING beats the sound of a ferrari at full whine..

few questions dont be offended but how do we know its an evo?? and the 360 is reving out but it seems like the racer wasnt taking it to hard on the higher gears. so im just saying the 360 cpoulda whipped more *** if a more better driver was drivin and its not a dragster either.

oh yea i was tailing a testarosa (how ever its spelt) in my ol evo 2 but never did get any play (damn it was sad)

You can hear the evo's engine revving

Its definatly an evo

And it seems that its going through the gears too fast to be stock

If you look at the little green light in the reflection of the window, thats his A/C light.
He did that well with his A/C on!


Redline on the Modena is 8500 and fuel-cut i believe is 9100

No way this a stock EVO. And the 360 is running pretty hard, although he seems to back off at the end. I know the 360 very well, and it's definitely faster than an EVO, particularly at higher speeds. I thought maybe the 360 owner got caught in too high a gear, but he seems to go thru them quite quickly, suggesting he's got the F1 tranny.

That said, I'm 3 seconds a lap FASTER around my local track in the EVO compared to the 360...

Not that unbelievable...

Ferrari 360 Coupe

INFO
Curb Weight [lb (kg)] 3064 (1390)

Max. Power [Bhp at rpm] 395 at 8500
Max. Torque [lb-ft (Nm) at rpm] 275 (373) at 4750

0 - 60 mph [secs] 4.3
0 - 100 mph [secs] 10.2
1/4 mile [secs at mph] 12.8 at 112.5


With a top speed of 173, the EVO could still hang 60-120 Im sure.


GEARING
I..........3.29..........5.3..........45 mph (8500 rpm)
II..........2.16..........8.0..........68 mph (8500 rpm)
III..........1.61..........10.8..........91 mph (8500 rpm)
IV..........1.27..........13.6..........116 mph (8500 rpm)
V..........1.03..........16.8..........143 mph (8500 rpm)
VI..........0.85..........20.4..........173 mph (8500 rpm)

ACCELERATION
0 to 30 mph..........1.9
40 mph..........2.5
50 mph..........3.6
60 mph..........4.5 FROM HERE
70 mph..........5.8
80 mph..........7.1
90 mph..........8.7
100 mph..........10.5
110 mph..........12.4
120 mph..........15.1 TO HERE = 10.6 seconds...
130 mph..........17.9
140 mph..........21.9
150 mph..........27.1
160 mph..........35.3
Street start, 5-60 mph..........5.6
Top-gear acceleration, 30-50 mph..........7.4
50-70 mph..........7.4


I've run with 360s in a Dinan Supercharged E36 M3... Which would be a good match for a modified Evo... and no one said the Evo was stock.

And for the record... 355s are DOGS.



Chalk an impressive showing by the Evo
