Same Evo, finally beaten
The EVO from about 4 of the other posts, this time the result is different. Of course it took some juiced V8...

Yeah, I don't think its street legal either. It doesn't have taillights, and is brought in on a trailer. I wonder where they are always doing all of this racing? About how to save the vid, I am not too sure.

So that evo has 1) a 55 shot, not too shabby, and 2) 600AWHP. That's pretty crazy. He goes up against a Z-06, it's pretty even at different power bands, they pull on each other but the evo comes out ahead. Kinda sucks for the man who spent $110k+ on his car.
EDIT: I also have to say, I haven't seen any STi's modded like this and other Evo's. Are there any?

Racing from a roll is incredibly lame (not to mention stupid and illegal). From a roll proves nothing; with the majority of the car's weight already under momentum, torque and driver skill go out the window and it just comes down to who tuned for low-end (hole shot, 1/8th time) or high-end (1/4 mile time). From a dead stop that EVO would tear the Vette apart, but get eaten in a full 1/4 mile -- if the Vette managed to stick it and not spin the wheels. It is a good bet the vette is more aerodynamic and has a flatter torque curve, and thus a higher top speed; and AWD drivetrain loss will always handicap an EVO, WRX/STI and other equivalent cars past 1/8th mile, it just can't be ignored.
In the vernacular, AWD dragging is teh st00pid -- unless it is done in DIRT

Well put.
What I think is funny is the fact that many of you ridicule the camaro for not being street legal, where I live the evo is far less legal than the chevy and it's only a matter of time til the motor goes boom at 35 psi. THEY ARE BOTH RACECARS AND NEITHER ARE "DAILY DRIVERS" or even street cars. Sorry, but at 3 times the normal power output, streetability goes out the door. With that said, all of those cars are monsters so open your mind and get off the "imports own all" bandwagon.
