I am sure there are plenty of normal people able to harness the power of a stock evo, however they may require practice in other aspects, an evo is about the easist car to drive fast there is, within reason.
#1 Then they picked the wrong part or installed it incorrectly.
(after number one) Thats why I brought up heavy car little motor
#2 I agree with that
As for nick I am not sure of his setup but I would imagine under 400hp would kind of suck in that thing on anything bigger then a parking lot..Isn't his car auto? If so thats a total fail right there.

See I don't disagree with you totally but it gets to the point we might as well be driving fiats in this bish...
trust me pete, you would not be waiting for a point by from anyone...

Let me break it down for you, this is how it would go... you bring your 350 mustang dyno EVO on track to find out you are only able to go WOT for a few seconds (if that) and only on the straights because A. you're scared ****less of the corner thats coming up FAST, B. its over-heating because the more power you make the more fuel you burn the hotter errthing gets, C you are afraid of not being able to slow the car down, D you don't want it to blow up or E all of the above. That is the reality of it, no forum BS. See it dozens of times if not more.

regarding teh EVO is the easiest car to drive comment, that is totally false. Its actually VERY difficult to drive fast, thats why it takes practice. Having driven a lot of different cars the EVO is up there with one of the harder cars to quickly move around a road course, IMO. Errbody thinks cause its AWD and has ample power that the car drives itself, but that isn't the case (at least with the VIII/IX). Its a front heavy, powerful, understeering PIG that requires a specific set of skills to balance the car. something like a z06 or M3 is MUCH easier to drive harder than an EVO.

Regarding the tuning aspect of it, I know you know your **** with the 'tooning' and all, but Thai and I were talking about this a while ago and we would like you to come out to an event and do some on site tuning... I think you would be surprised the conditions the car sees (when someone is actually using all the power) vs. just being on a dyno making pulls.

Finally the comment about installing a part wrong, that is just silly. Its not a matter of installing a part wrong (like an O2 housing, which can really only be installed one way), its more about the aftermarket industry not taking into account how changing one part effects all the other parts on the car.

BTW, Nick has an 01 Z06 now, this isn't his auto/n20 trans am he's running.

Just bite the bullet and sign up for an event next year with us, you will have a total blast I assure you and walk away a changed person.

good luck with that, lol. I challanged him to a similar dual last week after he told me he'd beat me by 2 seconds if we were in the same car, but after I accepted it started with the mad excuses.

Dan K., please read the bold section. Recall our multiple conversation about the Evo being easy to drive, and all the electronic diffs and whatnot. Thanks.

by the way, don't tell marc that you're faster than him on track cause he'll challenge you to a race at autox or kart or GT5. he'll come up with all kinds of excuses why he won't challenge you on track.
