Default Wasted by an EVO

Like I said, I just got taken to the cleaner by an EVO.
I hit the onramp, didn't even see him coming. He "rolled" up next to me, as I am WOT, we look at each other, and off he goes. Bear in mind, all this happened while I was flooring it, LOL!
He pulled about a car and a half on me in 5 seconds.
My car dyno'd 378 rwhp and runs 12.4 @ 115 in the 1/4 N/A.
Too bad my bottle was empty
But man, that sombitch was fast!!!

Lol, you never know what your gonna get with an Evo, which is why I liked mine. But good run anyways at least your not afraid to admit defeat.

Damn!! To bad you couldnt talk to him and find out what he has done. Sounds like he was pretty modded though. Nice death though.

Yeah...it must have been heavily modded to walk a car that traps 115mph. Good luck next time and make sure the bottle is always full.
