The Evos had a good showing. Who's silver Battleground Evo was that? Sounded like it was spinning all 4 off the line. It kept breaking up, but it looks like it had a lot more potential. It ran an 11.40, or something like that. Would have been interesting final if she (think it was a girl) didn't redlight early on. Good driving, guys.

Damn, I need to run down there. Sounds like that track turns some really nice times compared to Commerce.

That was Batlground's EVO. They did a best of 11.25. I think they had more in it too.

Hey guys had alot of fun this weekend. We wish we could have brought out our Evo but it was not up to our standards yet so we didn't want to bring something half done. It will out this weekend so expect to see some crazy numbers from it.
On a different note I ran my STI (i know) and was the fastest suby there by alot, which is really sad because my numbers 12.22 @ 116.53mph are not that great. But I guess its not to shabby for a turboback exhaust, 20g, and ecutek. I must say that having to shift into 5th owns dragracing, it sucked.

Also congragulations to BG for their 11.47 @ 125.5mph

doug man, your being modest, you did great. also, Val, you kicked some serious ***. hopefully i'll have some more runs once i get some good Hp down. 13.1 at 108mph, sucks big time. I was very disappointed, it was my one and only run, but i really think if i would have ran a couple of more times i would have gotten mid-high 12's. But again, i think my engine needs some medicine, it's sick or something.

Anyway, great rack day overall, great to see a lot of evos out there and some STi's.

actually, the track was slick as hell. I spun all 4 off the line badly. couldn't do better than a 1.73 60' time. I pull much better at other tracks.

trapping almost 117 i should have been in 11s easy, as should doug.

were you running pump gas? if so, your trap is ABOUT right, could be a little higher.

I have pretty much the same setup as you jeff, so I should turn the same times as you down there. What did you put down on dyno4mance's dyno? pump/race gas HP's

I have always run faster times at Commerce just because the track hooks up better. I will be going to commerce this friday to try and get my 11.

Gonzstarr was running pump gas.

i put down 290 on pump on andrews dyno, and on race gas i only put down 300. but would couldn't figure out somethings with my car. i couldn't make more boost than i was on the pump gas run, that 10whp was from timing and a/f leanage.

at the track, i was having waaay more than 300whp on andrew's dyno(DD dyno FWIW)

The car has an AEM, so it was on the 2-step at the line (that makes it sound like it's breaking up, but it's really building boost for the launch). Dan ran a 11.2 at 129 MPH in the car. That was him driving when the car red lit. I wouldn't have done that JK! I ran 11.5 (got smoked by Val congrats on the times BTW). We were dialing in the car. It's the first time it has been to the track since it's gotten to 522 awhp. We had to figure out what to set the 2-step at. The track was pretty slick, too. I think I'll try to go to Commerce this weekend to practice my launch Dan will be out of town...so we'll see. I'll have to see if he can teach me how to turn the 2 step on and stuff!




Awesome pics!!! I had an fabulous time. It was nie to meet some of you. Congrats to everyone on the times. Hope ya'll used sunblock! I'm crispy burnt.
