Raced a friend of mine after some peer pressure tonight. He had a brand new EVO IX. We did a standing start and two roll-ons and I won by at least six cars easy every time to 120. I have I/H/E, SOS stage I ecu/TB and some weight reduction of about 200 lbs. I normally don't street race but I gave in after being called out in front of a large group of my peers. Desolate open highway with no traffic so don't flame me too bad please!

EVO IX OWNED 3X's!!

Well considering that an Evo IX puts out 286HP, weighs almost 3300 lbs and has the aerodynamics of a hippo standing sideways, I'm actually not very surprised. 
And yes, you were a very naughty boy for racing on a public road. For your punishment you must lock yourself in a closet, put on a set of headphones and listen to 3 hours of Kenny G.

3 hours of Kenny G....that is the death penalty in some states:tongue:
Is that his first AWD? Does he know how to launch? I've seen people add a second on the 1/4mile strip because they can't get a launch and bog the car. If you drag race that split second is worth about 7 car length not to mention that car goes into turbo lag. I had two evo's and I know they are also very fast in the straight. It took me about 25 launch to really know how to launch an AWD car.
If the weather is cold he should run 12's in the quarter.

Yeah ,but it wasn't stock to stock:biggrin:
haha watch out =)
if he gets a $5 manual boost controller, a $100 ecu flash, $100 intake, and a $300 downpipe, and a $500 exhaust he will probably serve you next time :biggrin:

Wait a minute - I think Kenny G sounds great in my NSX while cruising the canyons!
Somebody kill Kenny...
In which case your punitive measure would be:
3 hours of Rob Zombie at full volume.
