anyone raced a new lancer

A stock jdm Lancer EVO ran in the 13s from what i remember in an old SCC from November. Wheelspin is minimal for instant traction of the line. And it's safe to say not many that would get a LanEVO would leave it stock. I've watched moddified S13s get left behind by LanEVOs. I wouldn't feel too confident facing a LanEVO or WRX.

Okay, something you guys gotta remember is that we only get the watered-down versions of these cars due to smog requirements. So, if you saw a lancer EVO in SCC, it was probably the true JDM version. Also, all those HP specs are exaggerated coming from the manufacturers. I'd be willing to bet that if you bought a new EVO and threw it on the dyno, it'd rate far below it's factory specs.

Yeh i was gonna say that. From what i heard it has the second gen eclipse motor in it. So it shouldn't be a problem racing them when they're stock.

I will admit that it was a jdm Lancer EVO that I was referring to. It's just that I've seen those things in action from japanese videos and they're tough. Not impossible or invincible. Every car has something that can be taken advantage of. I'm just saying unless I had serious modifications and $$ invested in my civic I wouldn't feel too confident.
