Ran 2 evos
First one: Black, looked very new and clean, had exhaust visible, possibly more mods, it seemed kinda quick. He started a car behind me. By the time i realized he was punching it, he was 1 car ahead of me, i was ready though but he had pulled it to a 2 car lead by around 55. This started from a roll of around 30. Then i started to reel him in and it was even by mid 3rd. It wasnt a very fast pull, i was essentially walking away slowly. When i got just passed him, i noticed he braked hard. I followed him for a few more blocks, but there was traffic, and i wasnt going out of my way anymore than a few blocks, so i turned off.
Second one: Looked and sounded stock. Unfortunately it was at higher speeds, so i had to use the dreaded 4th gear! To my surprise, i could take him in 4th gear vtec, but since i lost so much ground getting into vtec in 4th, he would have a car length before 120. I never went past 130, but if i would of gone to the speed limiter, i would have pulled ahead. We did a couple or runs, all starting at speeds over 90, which means no third. He gave me a thumbs up and was really shocked i was keeping up. I on the other hand was pissed that i couldnt take him, but went home with a smile on my face since he couldnt take me in 4th!
Ive raced many cars and noticed that most of the time, if they cant pull in 1st 2nd or 3rd, they can probably pull on me in 4th. So keeping up with an evo in 4th is not a bad accomplishment in my eyes, cuz i would probably walk him bad in the lower gears!
Oh yeah, a brand new c230kompressor was toying along the whole time, but he was playing more of a catch up once the evo and I started runs.
