So tonight I am with my cousin and we are leaving my house to go get him some beer. I am not of age yet so I drive him around on these days. Anyways, I hop onto a main road and what do I see ahead of me? An EVO!!! [pray] It is beautiful and sounds sweet. My cousin wants me to go straight on the road, but I take a right and head onto a "freeway" type stretch of road. So I catch up to the Evo and my cousin signals for him to hit it, he is next to me with a car infront of him I hear the BOV and it's wetness in the pants instantly. I take off and he follows. I hit the speed limiter and let off, He gets next to me and my cousin and I give him the thumbs up. It was an honor he'd follow and let me see a real car. He is next to me and hits it, the BOV sounds and he jumps forward. I think I am in love with that car. Awesome guy, wish we had time to talk, maybe I'll see him around. Now I need something to give him a challenge, do I hear turbo? [hihi]
One of my friends just got a new Evo. It puts my car to shame. Happy to say I stayed right with him on the off ramps, and various other twists and turns.
When i turn 25 in a couple of years i am boulding an evo/wrx slayer. 04 mustang vert with twin turbo. [pray] I wish Inductionconcepts.com made a TT kit for the focus
I would love a cobra. There was one on the lot around here and it had lots done to is, like over 600whp and it was going for not too bad of a price, that is a real car there!
man i can beat an evo/wrx anyday..........as soon as i get my bike []...but if i was going to buy a mustang i'd get the roush stage 3...s/c 500hp [driving] [burnout] plus it looks sooooo sexy
I totally agree. They come STOCK with a 180hp rear engine plant in a 2000 pound car. It's EXTREMELY light. That's good for low 13's. THEN throw on a turbo, good god. I had the lucky honor to actually sit in one and play with one at a euro car meet a few weeks ago and a guy that came had a red elise and was nice enough to let me fondle it!
also on the twisties you might be surprised at performance.........i watched a jeremy clarkson video where they put cars up against other vehicles.....they took a top of the like bike against a porsche on a road course.......the porsche wasted it.....oh it wasnt a top of the live porsche either......just something to think about....[]
The Force-Fed Elise runs 12's and out-handles just about anything out there, but it'll cost you 50 grand plus...
But guys, a STOCK 03+ Cobra will still outrun an Evolution/Sti down the 1/4.... It won't outhandle it though.
