STM sponsored NeonGLH Evo goes 11.256 @ 122.26!
Big thanks to everyone at STM for being so good to me! This car has become a monster this year!
So, nothing has changed on my car since last time I ran an 11.90 @ 120.4 other than putting on ARP wheel studs on all 4 corners, putting a set of Meagan Racing coilovers on all 4 corners, and then using a set of 15" Rota Slipstreams with 26 x 9.5" Hoosier Quick Time Pro tires. Here is the car as it sat before going to the track tonight:
Stock block, stock head, stock fuel rail/regulator, stock intake manifold, stock throttlebody.
Evo 9 turbo, AEM EMS, car weighs ~ 2850 without me in it tonight as it was (full interior).
I was running 100 octane pump gas, about 28 psi of boost, and 22 psi in all 4 tires.
First pass I cut a 1.608, and went 11.434 @ 121.88. I did a good burnout for this pass, and the launch was so hard it totally threw me off. I was not expecting it to feel like that!
Second pass I cut a 1.507 60'!! I ran a 11.256 @ 122.26. That burnout was more like most-wanted's famous burnouts, where I went totally sideways. The crowd was loving it! I feel that I drove really well tonight.
Here is a picture of the time slips for now, and then as soon as Gleason @ STM and Shawna @ STM get their video's and photos up, I will add those to the post
I beat burnall4 by a few hundreths and a bunch of mph!!

The car has a lot left in it, I know it has a 10 second pass still. This was absolute full interior, still running an air filter, and only my 2nd pass ever on slicks. No WOT shifting, or anything.
I have to say, doing burnouts with AWD in the water box is pretty awesome

I have the AMS lightweight Wilwood brakes in the front and rear. That mans the 1.507 was done without the use of an ebrake. The brakes allow me to put the slicks on the rears without any spacers, but we still use a 15mm spacer up front. These tires are pretty big!

Nope, it's a regular loaded '03 with sunroof and power locks/windows. I cut a lot of weight with brakes, suspension, wheels/tires, and then did all of the weight loss tricks I could do all throughout the car. PM me sometime if you want to talk weight loss, I can set you in the right direction
