Default Killed an EVO 8 MR

On my way to work last night, just driving along minding my own business . I pull up to this Evo, he sees me and gases it so i don't pass him, . So i jump to attention and get into playtime mode . I try about three time to get even w/ him for a run but he keeps gassing it to like 110mph. I finally get him to slow down and tell him to go from 60mph on three.
Count it down, trans domps to second...we're off and I hear this thing spooling like a motherF*cker!! Sounded cool, too bad for him I pulled about two cars on him in second then another 3-4 in third . We shut down at about 125mph. To my surprise i do not get a fly-by. As a matter of a fact this kid will not pull up to my window now. I had to slow to like 60 and wave him up just to give the good ol' and thumbs up.
Too bad i couldn't find out what he had done to it, i was already late for work before playtime so i had to go .

Nice kill. Looking at your chassis mods, a dig race would be you on top too. he might not know that though, rematch could be $$ heh.

Not right now, i snapped the torque arm, it Bangs like hell off the line. I'm still waiting for the cash to replace it.

If you raced it from a deadstop could have been a whole different outcome. MR's are clocking 12.8's to 12.9's Stock.

^Even with his chassis mods?

I would expect his car well driven to get like 1.8 short times. He might loose some in the 60, but gain it back later...

Then again, a certain member with a 'no bench racers' avatar might have a comment here

evo 9's are clocking those times not the 8's,and yes it would have been a diffrent outcome.
