Damn...very impressive. So, what MPH do you dead hook at? You can't be hooking from a dig on the street! How did you drop so much weight to get your car down to 3480? Again, props to your setup!

I pretty much dead hook a 40 if im on concrete and a semi warm day. asphalt on a cold day spins a little. I dead hook a 60 every time out of third and hook a 60 out of second in conditions above^

as for weight redux, alot of stuff man.. the list would be too long. but its mainly focused on drivetrain/rotational weight, Race brakes, etc..

Your Evo is sick, there is no reason for anyone to talk **** .

A lot of us here ride too though, and know that spinning against a literbike - even with 900+rwhp - from a 40 roll usually means the bike will instantly jump out a length or two.

Not like it matters since you will come around him hard anyway, but you yanked a 1000 from a 40 roll while spinning against the rev limiter and that is NOT a normal outcome . You should have been playing catch-up on that first run!

I don't own a literbike and am not a fan of Honda's so I could care less seeing one get pulled...it's just that a lot of people have no experience with crotch rockets and seriously underestimate bikes here to the point where we get bursts of members posting kill stories against modern 600's and literbikes in their 12 second bolt-on LS1s .

That's pretty good for the street bro. I can hook 3rd at 60 but that's about it. I really need to get a coil-over setup and ditch the leaf springs.

X2. You have a sick EVO! I also agree that it is funny when you get other people on here and other websites thinking they can hang with a 600+ bike with boltons. It takes quite a bit of power to run down a liter. Even if the CBR had been ridden good, you still would have ran past him! Good race!
