Off topic, but that's why Tap is awesome, 105 in second.

Chargers are trash as mentioned. I've jumped a fender on a Challenger R/T, from 40, and held it to 100

As for the Lancer, is an XIII, IX, or X? XIII or IX don't waste your time, X would be close, driver's race. My dad owns a X, and he told me mine feels a little faster, will never have a chance to line them up as he lives in Houston and I live in North LA.

No luck today on seeing the Charger guy or the Lancer kid. The lancer looks to be an older one like a early 2000 or something.

too much supercharger fail in here.

hawkins04, positive displacement blowers achieve nearly full boost in the low rpms (1000-1500ish) and carry it all the way to redline. flat torque curve

Don't mess with the EVO then... Just put the Charger in his place and be done with it.

I was hoping my sarcasm hadn't gone unnoticed in this thread.

So i've narrowed down that lancer to evo V to evo VIII. Haven't seen the kid in a while. Next time I do, I will talk to him and see what he has going on.

i thought the first ones sold in the US were the evo 8s. supposedly the 9s are faster then the 8s. ive driven one and wasnt impressed, but then again im in no way a professional driver, nor am i used to driving awd turbo stick cars. ive beaten the evo 10 from a low roll, but it was pretty close. he had a very silly winshield banner front and back that said My Beyotch.
