SUN DAY SUN DAY SUN DAY at the WWF school of marketing...

This whole thread is as bad as wrestling... But wrestling generates money as a from of advertising and you all fall right into watching the train wreck..

This is too much like the finger pointing and name calling in the ring... Time to change the channel.

We should all just stop the hating, and support on what AL is doing. Even though he might have a big head about his work, we all are interested on how much an EVO can take. For my self I am using this as a way of learning more about the EVO. Any ways, AL just keep your head up, just not to high.

The point is that there are 2 things that come with the EVOs that you haven't noticed
1-there is this 3 spoke thingie on the left hand side of the dashboard called a STEERING WHEEL. Learn to use it as this car handles amazingly!! Learn to drive the car, and I don't mean straight.

2-there are these attractive red things that go inside the wheels.These are called BREMBO brakes. They were designed to slow you down before diving into a CORNER.
If you haven't noticed the EVO is NOT a 1/4 mile drag car. Yes your times are impressive, but that's a percentage of the capabilities of this car.
Wow I bet you think you really told him huh? Yes the EVO has amazing handling. Are you out there at the autox track or open track setting new laptimes every week? Since you seem to think that road racing is 10x more respectable then drag racing what have you done on a track that would be worth mentioning?

It would be seriously bad to see a street driven Evo beat a full race WRX, it would just be bad! It would be nice for bragging rights, but the ESX guys really have ALOT to lose, not running would be their best option if they want to actually keep the company alive.

One question would you let a group of people work on our car after they lost to a street car? And their arch rival car out of all people?
I'm glad someone sees through those guys !!! They agreed to race me BEFORE they realized that I would be laying down the smack on them in my "street EVO" prob with DAN driving - thats when they wised up and decided they better find a way to back out of what THEY HAD PREVIOUSLY agreed to !

After they gave me their word they would race me - I went out and rented the track for one hour - - - - and also made other arrangments to get there to race them

After all that plus working on my car to get ready they start to try and back out last night

I guess they rather show off by killing a buntch of slowBAru WRX's

Lets hope they agree to do what they said they would do

Even if they don't show up, couldn't you still get a better 1/4mi time than their best? It'd be almost as good as them being there for the defeat. Just get it on film with that Renn-ART camera.

Al goes fast straight, so we must tell him that the evo is not made for that. Are you taking the corners fast buttwipe? I did not see you set any record. Did I miss that? Your probably a ***** and cruise with your car racing slow *** NA Hondas at the cruise spot and telling them all the BS you have. You are the worst kind of assh*le. What car was made for drag racing? Wait, I see the dealer now, "Here we have the line lock option with 5000 stall converter for $3000.

You tell me!

Yeah, I road race! woohoo! Pathetic asswipes! Stick to the thread!

Honestly, just from seeing HP when at the level, I'd most likely see you doing----11.2-11.0! We should do a evolutionm.net pool. Ill be the book-ee! When is this race going to happen anyways?

Make sure to have videos from ALL ANGLES!

Al, dont bench race, just keep quiet and do it, then post. This is what a few people are getting upset at. I am hearing it from everywhere lately, and I am defending you, but its hard. People dont want to hear about braggers. They dont know you, and the k-brd is emotionless. Very common on the Virtual race scene. You are excited and want to show/help others with knowledge. Some take it the wrong way. Some dont like that style etc.

As for the flat out haters, they all have e-cars. They can beat you with less. I have heard that story before.
