I have a buddy with a fast EVO, 10 second car. He is deadly on the street racing. The AWD hooks the car up. The big power cars are usually spinning the tires while he drives around them. A stock one isnt much to worry about, but some of those EVO's can be deadly on the street.
In God we trust, all others pay cash.

I think 4 doors are for geeks or mommies.just my opinion. I remember that when I was in high school, if you owned a 4 door and thought it was cool, you got laughed at.
I would be happy to run you in my mommy 4 door if you would like? I have a buddy that has one of these evos that is is daily driver with a bunch of bolt ons. When he turns the boost up at the truck it runs 10 teens all day long.
Yaa yaaa.... ....I have a buddy....yadda yadda yadda....We all have "buddys" that have a car that can beat your car.... We all know what kind of potential some cars have, its the people that drive them that dont understand. Don't some people understand the original point of this post?? I do...and I know people like that....they're clueless. Just like some of the people that reply to these posts.

Wonder if this thread would ever been started if they actually raced?
I think it would have gone something like this...
AAR pulled out on the road and heated up its Quik Time Pros. Evo does a small dry hop. Evo is revving his car to get the boost up. AAR comes up on the converter to about 2800 rpm. Evo is revved up to about 3500 rpm. Starter drops his arms, AAR launches hard with just a wee bit of air under the front tire. Evo hooks good, too, but not as hard. AAR pulls 2 cars right out of the hole. Evo tries to catch up, shifting at 7000 rpms. AAR hits his shift points at 7000 rpms also. AAR is pulling away on the top end. Evo gives up and lets off the gas. We go back to my house, and I ask, now do you want me to crack open the blue bottle and we go again?
Evo driver goes back to Iowa where he lives and starts searching the classifieds for a Cuda to buy.

Man this one has been bugging me all day so i thought id throw in my You do realize you challenged him to a race and tell him to drive his car from florida and youll drive your car what an hour to the track? Sure your honda may run good for what it is but why challenge a guy across the country then talk trash saying his car wont make the drive, i dont see your car driving across the country. And if you want to hit up people for races let me direct you this way racefwd.com Im sure youll find something in your area, if not i know plenty of people itching to run your honda. Well have fun with your economy car.

Sorry to the original poster for helping this train get off the tracks. JMO but when someone lays down a challenge,like the one you were given,I'd jump on it,but on the track in front of everyone and his brother. I don't street race and haven't in 15 years,no reason to put others at risk. As far as the proud Honda fellow,I would not get on the internet bragging about your slow ride and how it is a terror,it's not. So you beat a girl in a mustang on her cell phone or whatever,your racey Honda isn't a threat to beat anything that I consider fast.Just a different veiw of whats fast vs. whats not so fast. I guess go to the track and knockoff a z06 corvette and a couple of 1000cc sportbikes and I might think its pretty neat. Sorry,I don't get your amazment at the numbers,I had a number of 2.2l dodge turbo cars(daily drivers) over the years that were much faster and still got 30mpg. Yep,my car would make the drive although the longest road trip it's been on is only 700miles,it's still a street car,just not my daily driver. Sorry I don't mean any offence to you,just can't feel the terror of a 13 second car.

So , my wifes uncle was in town and he bought some 4 door piece of crap called a Lancer EVO. He asks if I want to get my AAR out and "race a real car". I just laughed at him. I was a good boy and didn't run him (even though there is a very nice long straight stretch in front of my house). It just cracks me up that he thinks his EVO could "blow my doors off". I wanted to ask him when he was going to grow a set and buy a real car, but I refrained.
Careful there that AWD Evo will whoop up on you on the street.
You want to really get his GOAT the next time he starts mouthing. Tell him his EVO is 1/3 Mopar.
Heres how: In the late 80's a company was created call Diamons Star Motors. It was staffed by Mitsubishi, Mopar and Hyundai engineers. With the understanding that all Corporates had equal rights to what ever technology came out of the venture. DSM=Diamond Star Motors brought us the 4G63 engine in cars such as the Plymouth Laser, Mitsubishi Eclipse, Eagle Talon(a chrysler company)and some Hyundai car?? Later it was also used in the Mitsu Galant VR-4 which eventually evolved into the EVO.(hence the name EVOlution) To this day the EVO still carries the 4G63 engine in a reverse configuration.
NOW YOU KNOW THE REST OF THE STORY!!
GOOD DAY!!
I have a 1991 Plymouth Laser myself.
I have personally helped a guy get his Eclipse from 14.0's to 11.30's for less than $4500 with bolt ons.
Of all the imports out there. EVOs, Eclipse, Laser, Talon, and Supras are ones I don't even take my chances with.
VR-4s came BEFORE the eclipse/laser/talon trio. I too own an AWD talon... cheapest speed out there right now IMO (bought mine for $900).
To the poster, well I hope you turn at least mid 13's without the nitrous, otherwise you're in trouble. If it's a newer EVO they'll turn mid to low 13s stock...

Dont know how fast your nice Cuda is but if your not running at least in the 11's then watch out for him. Like was said with a few mods they will blast low 12's. Nothing I like more then seeing our 30 plus year old Mopars spanking a new ricer. But you have to respect how well they can run. Ron
