It's already faster than Al's nitrous burning, "585whp", built motor'd drag racing "monster"
Both in the 1/4th and in the 1/8th by a considerable margin
MPH=fastest, ET=Quickest
With all the smack Al/Dynoflash speaketh, I thought beating his runs were going to be hard and actually require a concerted effort And there's still another 4-5mph in there just begging to be let out

Al claims 11.505 under his Avatar. That is one record still needing to be broken. However, anyone can see that Shiv's car is a faster car in every other category. But still, 11.505 needs to be beat to claim the undisputed title, right?

Oh yea, I'm running a CUSCO dual plate clutch. Stock one gave up the ghost a while back. Installed another aftermarket clutch thereafter which didn't work very well at all. Installed the Exedy a few days ago and it's been peachy so far.

Shiv - here are the details on my fastest run so far in the evo
60' 1.742
330 4.927
1/8 7.497 @ 96.01
1000 9.666
1/4 11.505 @ 121.40
I'll give you a hint on drag racing - 2nd or 3rd place is still 2nd or 3rd place in drag racing no matter how you spin it or what excuses you make!
BTW - I also went 11.62 with no NOS - I am curently the quickest with and without NOS
Good luck

Congratulations are obviously in order.
