I was building a turbo D. aiming for 300, but at least 250 out of it. Just ran out of time and money while at school.

I got a buddy with a full suspension setup on his EG hatch and he was chasing down Evos with his slicks still on a stock motor, so I dunno if power is everything. I'd def have to do more to my suspension... Suspension is next on my last for now tho, unless my head sells. Then I'll get an LS. lol

Does that track have any long staights? The track that I usually go to has 2 long straights. Which kills me if there's an Evo or STi on my ass. As soon as we hit corner exit, they blow right past me. I have no problem keeping up in the corners though. You should definitely try it. Fun shit. You'll get hooked after one session.

it had a couple straights... nothing huge tho, I think the fastest speed of the day was like 75 and thats because the evo didn't slow down for the turn:



2 wheels baby. haha

His suspension must be WAY to stiff. Probably bought the highest spring rates and thickest sway bars he could find. That is not ideal nor efficient. A car should not go on two wheels without something to aid it.....like apexing too early and hitting a slight curbing or something to that nature

There was a rumble strip... he was playing cat and mouse with another evo. They were both lifting the rear right tire around that corner... First evo got away from him on the straight right before it, so he hit the corner too fast, while launching off the rumble strip. lol
