View Full Version : I ran the silver Evo last night
Thunder
14th October 2007, 09:17 AM
so I guess he got all his problems fixed with a tune and we ran last night.
He gets me out the hole by 2 cars and Im stuck chasing him down. Once I hit 4th gear, I pull him hardcore up top. However, unaware of the quarter, I gave him the benefit of the doubt that he got me by a 1/2 car. Depending on where the quarter ended, it could have easily been me by 1 car lol.
his car runs pretty good.

So you loss. no big deal it happens. sounds like a good race either way.
Thunder
14th October 2007, 09:31 AM
None of us knew where the 1/4 ended. I just told him he got me by a half car. It was a real close race.
David
14th October 2007, 09:33 AM
thats cool. ya.. we needa come out with some easy ways of measuring out a quarter. I've already been kinda burned once this year by racing on a short 1/4.
Thunder
14th October 2007, 09:36 AM
he said he was told 6 poles. Having raced at kearney, I can say that 6 poles is NOT 1/4 mile. Maybe 8. It would be nice to remeasure sometime. The only reason why it was a questionable call was because when I hit 4th gear, i was passing him standing still haha.

intersting, I'll have to rematch him. And when was this racing? I thought it rained all night?
David
14th October 2007, 12:49 PM
thats what i thought. i mean i was out last night and it wasnt racing but i was taking the mustang sideways around some corners... it was way to wet all last night to be racing.
Thunder
14th October 2007, 12:58 PM
depends on how late you were out and where you were... but we got racing in and the ground wasn't much a factor.
David
14th October 2007, 01:02 PM
i live on the north side of town and drove to the south walmart... it was wet both ways at 10pm.
Alley
14th October 2007, 01:22 PM
Was the EVO guy just cruising around? How many people were out racing?

he said he was told 6 poles. Having raced at kearney, I can say that 6 poles is NOT 1/4 mile. Maybe 8. It would be nice to remeasure sometime.My friend has a GPS that we have used to measure out a 1/4 mile, maybey we can get him to use it and use a little spray paint on the curb to mark it, then use a construction cone i have sitting around.
that way it will be true 1/4 mile racing and no questions about it!
oh btw nice run

who said anything about racing at 10pm? you don't think 4 hours could pass with no rain in between, and it dry up?
David
14th October 2007, 03:27 PM
it was wet out when i went to bed and it was wet out wehn i woke up... the conclusion would say that it was wet all night. While i do understand it could have dried from the time i went to bed and then got wet again.

14th October 2007, 03:29 PM
lol ended up at mccormic at around 1 in the morning
the rain wasn't a factor at all. when we were leaving it was just starting to get some droplets and 30 or so min after we got back it was down pouring though.
Thunder
14th October 2007, 03:31 PM
because, when this went down around 1:30am, it was dried out. It began to rain around ~3 again

probably a 14 somethin. pretty sure codys a mid 14 car.

I have read that a stock new edge is suppose to run a 14.1

Js04sILVerBullet
14th October 2007, 04:10 PM
probably a 14 somethin. pretty sure codys a mid 14 car.I think if i remember right from SCR he said his car ran a 9.3 in the 1/8th?
Thunder
14th October 2007, 04:10 PM
if thats true i must run a mid 12. he had exhaust, intake AND a tune for 20 lbs.

thats about rightsad thing about that is my old 96 LT1 A4 could only run a best of 9.5 in the 1/8th and it had LT,o/r y pipe, rustmaster muffler,lakewood control arms. and DR's

well seeing as he brought it out a few weeks ago... i wouldn't say "JUST" bought it... but rather its a fresh acquisition.

i thought you were trying to say Cody's car could not run a mid 9 in the 1/8th mile, that seems possible considering he is beating mid 14 second cars.
BOWERS

I have read that a stock new edge is suppose to run a 14.1
They *can* run a 14.1 on a better than average run. The runs I saw with a good driver put them more in the 14.3-14.5 range on average. With a bad driver I would expect you might see them up in the higher 14's if not 15's.
Car's don't typically run their best times every time, especially on the street.

hahah I remember when I lived with my buddy LeMarcus in a duplex right on 30th and T.
4th of july we heard soo many guns going off.
that was a interesting neihborhood, he grew up there and new everyone.and home the duplex's front door was next to ours with a small stoop. and I would walk up and would always see someones hair gettin braided, or their front door would be open and rEAk like weed, and the one ladies boyfriend kicked her door in one night, when she wasnt there,
then he had threatened to come back so her brother (prolly one of the scariest guys I know) started staying there, and that guy would come over and pound on the door telling her to come out. finally he brother got ahold of him, it was ****ing nuts, they were going at it in the alley behind the duplexs and the cops never came,( doubt they were called) but the guy was just left laying in the alley.
I have alot of crazy stories from that place

Yep. I was averaging 14.3s consistently when mine was 100% down to the tires. I would say 14.1's would be more of a "best". lol

Oh, and why the hell is there so much talk about New Edges lately?!?!?!! lol

b/c they are cheap, lower miles, usually nice shape, and alot of them

oh you guys! i would say the race was pretty even, and that he was maybe a hair in front of me. (when he hit the brakes, cause he didnt want me to outright pass him!). I would say this stock 4.6 ran me better than the modded 5.0 i ran 1-2 weeks ago down south. the 5.0 got me by a fender.
hey Alley, sat. night when we out there sombody (dont know who) asked me "have you ever raced Alley? " i said "no, he doesnt race shitboxes".
