///M LIFEŠ 08-03-2003, 04:18 PM THEY ARE PRETTY QUICK. BUT YOU CANT LOSE TO A MITSU ;)
showoff 08-03-2003, 08:50 PM yo wattup im from new york, i been to a bunch og different racin spots, tha point, flatlands, but right now everything is basically shut down, but with school goin back and alot of college kids leavin i think flatlands(bk) will start poppin again, once theres less people, but its been shut dwn for about 3-4 weekends but before that it would pop like crazy, 400 cars easy. what spots do you go 2? have you tried zerega?
showoff 08-03-2003, 08:51 PM o yea you should browse hondahookup.com, in tha hunts point section, people normally post when its not shut dwn n when it is etc etc
Yasir 08-03-2003, 09:26 PM With few hundered $$$ in bolt on's an Evo can easily dip into mid 12's and possibly into low 12's,scary fast if you ask me.So the answer is he would have toasted you real bad,be careful with these Evo's & the Sti's
Later, Yasir

Boz.es.du 08-04-2003, 12:26 PM We all know how the Evo and STi are from a stop, judging from their ETs. From a roll, they both trap about 101-103 on a good day, which means he still would've walked you hard from a high speed highway roll...you're lucky.
(This is said given he actually knew how to drive and the car was fully broken in...).
Stop yelling! AAarrggghhh!!!
Oh, and paragraphs are your friends.
SilverStreak 08-04-2003, 12:36 PM Caps lock off, paragraphs, and what kind of car are you driving again?
runetang[1337] 08-04-2003, 01:09 PM He said it was a 330 with an intake, stage 2 chip, and throttle body.
Which would most likely be a mid 14 second car from a dead stop, but if he raced something like .. say .. a WRX, Mustang GT, or a stock LT1 f-body from high speeds, i think he could take the said cars .. I've noticed that bmws pull harder at higher speeds, they're geared that way .. ya know? But, yeah, a stock evo would probably walk him even at higher speeds, but id think he'd fare better at high speeds, losing by a couple of car lengths instead of 4 or 5, hehe.

Flawless 08-04-2003, 08:40 PM If you were having a hard time against the accord, chances are the Evo would be a nightmare.
yotone 08-04-2003, 10:06 PM i love those super twisty turns on the jackie robinson. if i can go through those turns without any traffic im in heaven. it makes or breaks my day.

NJenthusiast 08-06-2003, 02:17 AM you would get smoked really bad by an evo...especially from a dead stop...as long as that evo is willin to drop at about 5k and get a good launch he will instantly pull at least a car length on you by the end of 1st and its him pulling from there...the only way an 330 will keep up with an evo will be a FI 330..my best friend just bought an evo8 and those are no joke..
