5th gens hate to hook. On street tires I spin well into 80-90mph.

This is solved by slicks but even on slicks high power 5th gens struggle to hook. Too much torque. 600rwtq at 2.5k rpm is a bitch to control on any tire. Throw in the 5th gens boosting 18psi, or running nitrous untop of their PD blower and you're seeing 800rwtq at 2.5k rpm.

He did fairly well. But just like every evo after 3rd it gets raped.

Except for that ******* ams Evo. I hate that ******* Evo. One day I will stomp that ****.

Do Porsches count? Back in 1998 my EX stepdad had just bought an auto LT1 Vette (I believe it was a 95 model). We were heading West on 565 here in Huntsville when a Porsche pulled up beside us. He said with that smartass smirk on his face "Watch this". ..

He floored it, (got the jump) and then that Porsche passed us like we were standing still. I loved seeing him get crushed like that I have to admit.
