Las Vegas Evo's
Part #1 Hey here is my objective take about the LV experience. It was a bitter sweet experience overall but I did have a good time and everybody was real cool. Me and James finally going at it was fun and I am happy my car was a lil faster/quicker.
Part#2 John your spirit and desire to be one of the fastest Evos in LV made talkin crap to you fun. However, all of the sudden giving up on a goal of low 12s with your Evo is beyond me. I did not start getting consistent low 12s with my 1+ Vishnu (equivelant to your setup) until about my 5th crack at the track. Track condition were not optimal and that new traffic light system was garbage. I saw other disappointed car owners freaking out about horrible 60 times that were unexplainable. I still do not know how I got that 2.6 60ft and beat a car that did 12.5 at 110 mph(STI) by 2-3 car lengths and my ET was 12.8 at 116 mph. The timing device set-up was suspect at best and they need to trash it. That was by far my best run and on film he had me by a fender on launch and his 60 ft was 1.7. Wierd!

Part #4 Thanx Corey for rotating my bald tires. BTW I think Smogrunners gas can is still at the track.LOL
Part#5 James thanx for being a good sport and being cool about everything. Like I said your car is no slouch and a force to be reckoned with. Man does your wastegate and bov sound mean. Next time I come to town I will let you know and we can run again. If I lose it will not mean that my car is slow it will just mean that you are faster.
