Default 93z28 "evo" kill

Not really an evo. A lancer raliart w/ an evo IX turbo, suspension, airfilter, exhaust. I know the raliart weighs more than 500 pounds less than the evo, and is only 2 wheel drive. anyway first we raced from a 20 roll, i broke loose all the way into second gear till about 50 and i shut down at about 70 with a 3 or 4 car lead. We raced again froma 45, it was much closer, we were almost even until about 65 where i started to pull, i had a bout a car length by 90.

The Lancer Raliart has a completely different motor and also, its only around 300lbs lighter than an EVO. I believe the weight is 2922 while the average EVO is around 3250. (Give or take 100lbs depending on model).

It is FWD. Also, the title should be changed to "Lancer kill" not EVO kill.. because it wasnt an EVO lol

i looked up the factory weight it was 26-2750 compared to the evos 3200. I put evo killer because the kid had an evo xi turbo, and was pretty much calling his car an evo. Quick car though.

Well I dont know where you looked it up but its wrong. Check Mitsubishicars.com, they have the accurate weights. Its a little over 2900lbs and the EVO is around 3250. Also, having an EVO IX turbo still makes it nothing like an EVO regardless.

Anytime man. You know I looked up a car's weight, I think it was a Saturn Ion redline and I got 3 COMPLETELY different weights for it... down to 2500 up to 2950! Its these damn magazines that just seem to make up this information.
