It's a damn good car and everything works. Just leave it at that! It's not like they base the Peugeot 206 production car on the WRC car or anything! Besides, it's the most logical that Mitsubishi would develop the EVO from the lancer, rather than the other way around.

favorite quotes

"Lancer OZ = 2 liter (i think) sohc piece of ****
Lancer EVO = 2 liter dohc turbo beast. *creams pants*"

and the number one comment from an SRT owner to a EVO

"Normally, I hate Mitsubishi, but I'd sell my kids to the gypsies for a Lancer Evo. Imagine damn near every upside to the SRT-4 and almost none of the downsides."

Don't let RIDE1 see that, he hates Neons. Even though he smoked an SRT4 at the track.

The guy that drove the EVO obviously can't drive... (Check out his hesitation and launches)

The guy with the SRT4 had a few mods done to his car that I think it put him up 40hp. His mods also increases his tourqe a lot.

So easy to get turbo cars faster, just a little mbc. I've seen Civics beat Vipers so more proof to the point that, no matter how fast you are somebodys gonna be or find a way to be faster.

HA, HA, HA, That was pretty funny. How much gas money did they give to the Evo driver exactly?.... They probably paid him to lose. I don't doubt the SRT-4 has alot of potential, and I don't doubt that an Evo could lose to an SRT-4, especially a mooded one, but come on that was too.... obvious.

My car is stock and is not fast in the least bit. But when I race my friend in his 380+WHP Supercharged Mustang (no traction at launch) he doesn't catch up with me until were almost to the end of the 1/4. And than kills me on the top end.

So how does this guy's SRT-4 pull away so quickly even from a stop?... Well maybe that Evo driver sucks!!!

Come on this is bull****. Either the driver of the Evo can't drive or this whole **** is rigged.

The SRT can beat the Evo on a roll, but from a stop, the Evo SHOULD be able to burn that made in america piece of ****.

The SRT can also be modded.

I'm assuming that Evo driver pretended to race then as soon as they started, he probably took his foot off the accelerator.
