Chris_H 0 Report post Posted December 25, 2004 Even if he`s an amazing driver there's no way your beating an M3 in a Trans Am, unless it`s like an 1990 M3 and your Trans AM has NOS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EBondo 232 Report post Posted December 25, 2004 Believe me, the Trans Am has a lot of work into it, it is fast, really really really fast Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Justin 1933 134 Report post Posted December 28, 2004 Good choice getting rid of the stock altezzas, and the RPF1's look sick on there, but why'd you ditch the stock recaros? I'm guessing those are torinos? I always thourhg the stock recaros felt a lot better than those, but maybe it's just me. Do you go to Willow much? I have a few friends that run down there a lot. Here you go....ROAD RACE MUELLER JIC'S, Works TB, HKS Carbon Ti Exhaust, HKS DP, RMR Cat Delete, Goodridge Stainless Steel lines, Porterfield Brake Pads, Enkei RF1 and Toyo' TA-1 for the Track, Buschur MBC, HKS 264 Cams, Sparco Monza Seats, shift nob, and pedals, Kartboy Short Shifter and Shifter Bushings, VIS Trunk, and Carbon Fiber Hood, Greddy TT, and Custom Dynoflash....As for the porsches (only comparing them to the track)....It comes down to the drivers....I have embarassed guys in GT3's, and had other guys in crx's smoke me....IMO I think Porsches are overpriced for the performance the deliver (Boxers especially)....However, I don't think there is car I would rather have for the track than the evo....Justin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Justin 1933 134 Report post Posted December 28, 2004 that thing can bet porsches? yah right?!?I'm sorry but I'm not into the whole "Evo" dealio.... I got video you should watch one day....As for you not believing the whole "EVO" thing, I guess all those magazines that say the evo is one of the best cars out must be wrong too.... ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thockey17 1 Report post Posted December 28, 2004 The new Evo FQ-400 is absolutely unreal. The latest TopGear showed the Evo FQ-340 lapping the test track over a second faster than the iconic Audi WRC car. The TopGear before that showed the Evo FQ-400 could keep up with a Lamborghini Murcielago. In fact the Lambo spun out trying to keep off the Evo.(the Lambo was being driven by a touring car champ and the Evo by that bad driver, Jeremy Clarkson). The major downside to the FQ-400 are that it only runs on certain octane fuel and has quite possibly the worst turbo lag i have ever seen.I'll try to dig up the video if anyone wants to see it.

If you're beating a GT3 on the track, the guy in that car is a terrible driver.I highly doubt that with equal drivers, you're beating any 911 in the past 20 years, and especially not a 964 or 993 with their dry sump systems. Even a 996/997 C2 should beat you, but it would be close on that track.The Z06 will tear an EVO a new one on many, many tracks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
