I don't recall any 10 second evos in may, if they were out last November, I wouldn't know, I didn't attend that ifo. I went 11.6, and the guys that came up from pensacola ran 11.8 for the fpred car iirc, and 11.6 or there abouts for the 3071/3076. the grey ix that came up ran a fairly consistent 12.1-12.2.

All three of the black evos that I remember running, were mid-upper 11 second cars. mine will *not* be running in the event this time, and I don't know that I'm even going to bring it out.

Sounds like Cesar's car that was there last year. It'll be there again Sunday and hopefully in the 11.5 range ... we'll see.

I know the guy you're talking about. I met him at the '07 event. He's a cool guy, but I've never seen the car run.

that has to be me. no 10 second evo though.. maybe if someone that didn't suck drove it, but that would still be quite a stretch. Wouldn't really say that I was big though. heavy set perhaps, or festively plump, maybe big boned..

put a new clutch in last weekend in april/first weekend in may, broke it in per manuf. recommendations, took it to the may event, showcased my inability to perform consistently, took it to the track a couple more times after sorting some other issues out, upgrading the intercooler piping, putting in better cams, etc etc, the car is night and day faster... everywhere but the track. and now the clutch is slipping to boot.

and on a side note, I really dont consider the 35r to be that big of a turbo :shrug:

No, not yet. I did have a really promising interview last Wednesday. I hope to hear from the guy next week.

I was moving stuff for my gf, and I preemptively moved my two motorcycles to storage and drove the eclipse back to enterprise... preparing for if I do get a job soon.
