New DSMs? DSM AFAIK refers to the 1st and 2nd gen Eclipse/Talon/Laser and nothing else. The early 4G63 powered Galant VR-4 is often referred to as the 4th DSM but that's it. What is this new DSM you're referring to?

If you're referring to Evos then I agree. Evos kick and whup major *** no doubt about it. Those who rag on their styling are simply salty that a 4 door sedan with half the number of cylinders can kick their ***. Sounds like a ricer excuse if you ask me.

"That redneck may have beat me in his Camaro, but damn those 4th gens look like a smiling fish from the front. I would have beat him from a dig with my AWD."

"Those Evos may be fast, but damn they're nothing but an ugly as POS box with a turbo. I could have beat him from a roll."

Hmm, similar much?

Yea, I hate when people put down a car or come up with excuses. I mean when they are like its turbo charged or its supercharged. Well, if it came that way from the factory then quit bitchin right. So it has a power adder since stock. What it boils down to is how much you want to put in it and how fast you want to go. Some cars are just cheaper to get there like the late 80's early 90's Stangs. They have a cheaper R&D then most cars.

Q is...why they didn't do it from a ROLL man

Dig for a fully built AWD car weighing less than 2300 lbs against a completely stock Z weighing over 3000 lbs isn't fair at all IMO !!!

Hopefully they can make it again from 20-40 mph

peace

Good driver??? His car was drifting sideways from poor throttle control. Look at his headlights.... What race did you see? I have no idea how long he has driven other cars, but by the looks of this video he needs some time in the seat with this one. Again I say he lost it at the line. The Evo had enough power to make sure the C6 could not catch him from his poor launch. I guess he now knows how good the Evo is, huh? Again good video and a good race! Keep them coming!!!

Hey a race is a race. No matter if it is from a dig or a roll. Every race is fair considering if you have the ***** to race then STFU. With that said it was a fair race. I bet that Evo would beat it from a 20 to 40 roll also. Just because it is AWD don't cut it short. The Evo was still pulling on the Vette at the end. It will look like a close race from a far ways away. the gap was the same therefore the Evo was pulling on it even more. That is just IMO though.

i wanna see it from a roll....im gonna guess the LS7's gonna pull a little harder then the evo...unless that evo is really built or something...and if thats the case how can it be considered fair when you have a car with how many grand stuck into against a car that just rolled off the showroom floor. Like stated above...I wanna see it from a 20-40 roll. it will be a lot closer if not a different outcome.

I agree there is no place for the faire word in the street racing its just race what ever u got 10hp or 1200hp.
Don’t get mad because an EVO killed that Z06 easily, its an easy kill for this EVO even if the do roll race he would lose, the boost was set to 1.8bar and that car could go more far away to 2.2 bar with no problem, but due to that the start from dig he didn’t give it full boost to a void breaking any thing .the raced for fun no money was involve in that race.
I knew some one will start crap talk about the dig and roll **** so I kept the best pit to the last. Where in the second clip it shows how bad the kill was and that Zo6 would never make it in any way.
click to se the KILL OF TH YEAR
Keep in mind I don’t own any of these cars, I don’t care if you don’t like that race. I just but some effort to bring it up to this site while I am far away in Scotland, my sources is the owner of the Z06 and the owner of the evo8.

i love how you guys try to rationalize a z06 getting beat by an import. dig roll blah blah blah the import won. its not that hard to believe, a good driver can hardly get the z06 to mid 11's, what is so hard to concieve that the evo probably is a 10 second street car.

I am sure the driver of the Z06 is not bad driver at all but that EVO is heal faster than any stock Z06 .that what made the guy in the Z06 looks like bad driver .
For one point the Z06 is 440-460 Rwhp stock and this EVO with loads of mod it got anti lag –T67 max is 2.2 bar +the engine is 2.2 +full ported head +cam up grade +double clutch plate +engine management system +up graded fuel line and injectors +exhaust system the car rated to be 500 hp+ AWD . Z06 not modified at all .
