why the hell are we all the way in the back? Its like just because our car isnt as expensive it goes in the back. BS. vishnu gets major props for doin that. that pretty much says a lot when our 4 banger rips into the v 12's.

This is neat to read and look at, but does anyone else think that the concept is kind of "dumb"? If your going to have a tuner shootout at least do something comprable, Corvette's vs. Vipers, Evolutions vs. Sti's, etc. Because here we have modified cars, some with $200K dollar cars with 100K of modifications against an Evolution with 10-20K worth of modifications? And it's really pathetic that these cars didn't muster better times (minus that 30K red econobox ) I mean what's the objective? Shiv (or anyone else) could probably modify their evo a lot more than they did, so a 30K dollar car now with 295mm tires, widebody kit, 20K dollar brakes, 15K coilovers, but what's the objective? (We would really kick some *** then )

Oh we did. That 11.09 was a timing error. It was later changed to a 12.09. It was a fast car nonetheless though....
