Is he launching in 2nd gear? Also how high are they revving to?

 

[ebmp5]

mother of god... (omg)

um yea (shocked)

 

[LinuxRacr]

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

need to get it inspected.

You too..? (outie)

 

[Jeph]

Holy s***! That is crazy, its squirming all over the palce in that first video.

 

[smp3000]

Nope launching in first.. Just not hitting 5th gear. It crosses the line at the very top of fourth.

Unsure how high they're revving, but it's a destroked 2.1 litre so I think they're hitting 10K on that puppy. (RTM)

 

[hudnik]

looks like he needs some blocks for the rear suspension, keep that puppy flat, that, and umm, maybe the traction of four more tires...........(shocked)

hehe I have a feeling there will be pletny of VHT on the track at Norwalk on Sunday. There will be at LEAST 3 900+ hp evo's there.

hopefully one of them will be capable of being driven properly.


there is a 1st gen DSM in the 7's,that guy can drive his s***.

That EVO rocks. I think I remember the old dyno video from the 800+whp run.

The turbo placement kinda reminds me of a 9 second civic that won Battle of the Imports in Orlando

I think they need to get some wider slicks on that car.

 

[Metal MP5]

ok i know it's early but what happened yesterday? how did they do

 

[Doodsmack]

thats cool but if its just a dyno queen....gay.

AMS went 9.17 @ 162 in a shakedown run, then broke themselves. al from dynoflash ran 9.7 @ 145 and a 9.9 @ 150, then leaked coolant onto the track so had to leave. curt brown ran a 9.63 @ ~142. and dan buschur won the event with a 9.6 @ 153

 

[jred321]

the winner, only picture i've seen so far

 

[Metal MP5]

thats cool but if its just a dyno queen....gay.

well it did run 9.2 @ 160 =\

 

[smp3000]

Correct... The car ran a 9.1 on the initial pass of the day- then had some issues. Still waiting on the vid and for more details on what broke...

And this IS NOT a dyno queen. This car has held and broken the evo viii 1/4 mile ET, TRAP, AND WHP record over and over again.

 

[Metal MP5]

yeah keep us posted. i also wana know what broke
