Default Good Run With Yellow EVO On Eldridge

Anybody know someone on this side on town with a yellow Evo?
His car rolls really hard.
We did a 30 & 40 punch only beat him by a car both times.
My car is no beast but did not expect that
I did not know those cars were that fast.
I need a Procharger

Good kill Mike, and yes, you did need a 408 with a pro charger and a shot of gas to keep things intresting.

If it was a mid 20's looking white guy, I sold him some cam gears . I haven't talked to him since a year ago, but back then he was running the stock turbo with cams, intake, tbe, mbc, and a tune. He might have a modified stock based turbo now as those are becomming popular...

We can get away with 23 psi here in texas with 93 octane.

Sounds like a good race and a good time.

He looked hispanic an had a spiked haircut.
He also had some kind of monitor are something mounted on the steering colume and an a pillar full of gauges.
I 'am not an import fan by no means but that is pretty impressive to get that kind of performance with 4 cylinders.
