988 AWHP AMS Evo - Dyno Vid

[smp3000]

Well, they're allready running 4 slicks... I think they've already fixed the problem.. I'm not sure what they adjusted (susupension settings, clutch, tires) but from everyone I talked to that ran at that track definately said it was slippery- and all the fast cars were risking hitting the wall that day- so I'm guessing that had a lot to do with it.

this year will be good with the AMS car, buschur's drag car and al's (dynoflash) car all having over 900whp and all drag cars. hopefully they can all get some nice clean runs in and see what they can run. buschur and al have trapped around 150 already, i wanna see someone take it into the 8s

Do you know if the car has power steering?

Well, the driver was also trying ot get his license (I forget which one) so for the first 2 passes he let off at the 330 mark. Best of thsoe was a 12.2 @ 75mph lol. After that the clutch went out and they decided that with the lack of traction and being far from home that they'd call it a day.

According to AMS they're going to fix the clutch issue this week and take the car to a local track to shake it down and get some good runs in. The runs at STL were the first since the new build.

I will be at Union Grove Great Lakes Dragway this Friday and I hope this evo is there!! I believe this is the track they use local since they have some ET's on the website. I think I'm going to pop one if I see it there!

I'll ask them and get back to you. If they are there please take some vids!!! This could be where they break their record.

What did you mean about the 'RSD'? Did the guy say something about it?

 

[smp3000]

bhahaha I'm sorry... I must not have coppied the whole quote- I'm a moron.

Ok, but yeah he said that a bunch of AMS evo customers will be running their cars at RSD this Sat, but he's not sure if the shopcar would be there. I don't know what RSD is.

I'm thinking its:

RSD Proshop
6670 N Lincoln Ave
Lincolnwood, IL 60712-3618
(847) 674-5804

But I can't find anything else about it. That is dissappointing! I wanted to see that car run!!

haha nope -
Real Street Drags, its like street racing at the track. - Per the guy at AMS... So I'm guessing it's an event at union groves. See if union groves has a website. I'm sure it's on there.

Cool, I won't be there Saturday, I will be at soldier field for FormulaD. RSD is an event there and sounds like it would be cool.

Here's the site for union grove. http://www.greatlakesdragaway.com/

The car will be at Norwalk, OH this weekend for the mitsu vs subaru shootout...

Last night during testing they broke the record again going 9.2@160 while still having traction issues...vid will be up today.

 

[Metal MP5]

9.2 Omg

Kinda sounds like my T4/T67 Honda hatch except mine has an open 4"

downpipe, but im only making 450whp (ugh).

Wait, we must meet up. I have to see this!!! (shocked)

Its fast, but i dont like lag of the large turbo (16 psi at 6000 rpms). I

sometimes meet up with some friends at the Sonic on Little road, but i also

need to get it inspected.
