I’m almost positive he’ll pull you at the track. 2 step+awd= good launch=better launch than rwd…

just sayin’ 🙂

nothings wrong with the track  
but its the fact that i beat you easily from the dig  
and everyone on here says a stock evo will beat your car at the track  
no hard ass involved  
just stating the facts

> [@Big B](#):

and he did race me on the streets already  
but i wanna do another roll because that last pull was close  
and i wanna see what would happen

dude…ok its bad enough that you wanted to race him from a dig to begin with…2 things wrong with that picture…number 1: your driving a 300+ hp car w/ rwd on street tires…number 2: you’ve owned the car for 2 weeks and dont know how to drive it compared to someone thats maybe owned it for a few months…not saying your a bad driver, just inexperienced

lets put this in perspective here folks…what we have is…you want to race the evo at the track which first of all is the dumbest thing you could have asked for, you stood a better chance on a roll race w/ a car thats awd (believe me i own both a rwd car and an awd car, awd FTL on rolls unless you make massive power) now what your gonna do is, ON STREET TIRES, go to the track, lay a siqqqqq john force burnout before your run and still run shit times…why? because street tires dont get much stickier w/ a nasty burnout, if anything it hurts them…so right there alone at the track and the way lancaster is prepped your screwed against the evo…it doesnt matter if mikes a professional driver or not, at the track you WILL lose…the best time your probably gonna get is a mid-low 9 second pass with 2.0 + 60 foots…every stang ive seen at the track on street tires (GT stang that is) runs mid-low 9’s all day…

the evo with the 2 step and awd is gonna launch on you and leave you behind while you play catch up…mike will probably knock off some high 8 second passes, if he doesnt mis-shift…take everyones advice, and do a roll race…please, if you think your car’s gonna win, ROLL RACE IT FTW! that is all…i wanna see dis race ASAP!

This guy said it best.

Sam, I’m not trying to be a dick in any way. We’ve all seen the outcomes of races like this. The only way you have a chance is a roll race.
