emery kept trying to get me to qualify for SE since i couldnt use my slicks and ran my DR’s but i just wanted to do TT and see what happened. i think the fastest car that ran in SE went like 10.1 or something so i would’ve mopped up that class pretty easily.

i went 9.5 @ 159 lol, mostly everyone else either had QTP’s on or slicks

Awesome job Paul! I’m heading to Norwalk this weekend myself.

That’s moving!

At that kind of power, can you actually feel the difference between a 140mph car and a 160mph or are both just crazy fast and you need to see the slip to see how fast you were really going?

Hard to say. So much going on between rowing the gears and keeping it out of the wall it’s tough to say

Hahaha it goes nice on the drag radials. On the slicks it’s a handful for sure!

I might try and go for the drag radial record which is 9.0, so thall be a task all by itself but the mph is already there with a lot more to go in the car. Pretty sure we would have to put the car on a boost by gear setup to get it leaving the line with some 1.4s how it sits, just spins right now all through first

Hahaha need to get the car to leave on lower boost to really get it to go off the line.

But I believe I now hold the drag radial record for mph in the US for an evo 8/9!
