"Raced" a Mitsubishi Evo VIII Tonight

[crawler]

If you guys happen to run into an Evolution and want to play with it. You might waant to think twice. Then after thinking twice you can proceed to stomp his butt.


Now before I get called a liar, let me give you the short story.

We were at some "arranged" late night races and the Evo and myself happened to get a few bets placed on us. The deal was for Me VS the Evo. So the driver elected to let his more experienced friend drive. We were to go from a 30mph roll and go on the flagman's que. The Evo had a quarter tank of fuel and one passenger(the owner). I had a FULL factory tank and 15-30 gallons in my auxillary(traction) tank. On the flag I timed it better than him and got a jump. He then pulled even. By the top of third I had pulled a solid 2 1/2 to 3 feet. Three - Four shift he caught up. Middle of fourth I started pulling again. Four - Five shift(which sucks) He pulled back to 5-6feet of even (but I was still leading). When I finally hit fifth(double clutch) I pulled almost the entire lenght of the truck before we shut down(somewhere in the low triple digits).

The chosen driver was okay but not great. I'm sure a better driver would have done better, but, we played by the rules and I won.

Needless to say he was a little and a lot .
Not to mention his girlfriend whose on the phone right now was kinda she was diggin the dually before the race but after the race she got to check out the DVD and again Mr. Evo was . But I gotta go. I've got someone( ) waiting for me on the phone.


Later,
Wes
