FROM A ROLL, FOOL
I race two of my buddy(evo) when they were stock from a roll and beat them both.
But now i wouldn't even bother(not stock anymore).

from a roll is about the gayest way to run to determine which car has the better acceleration. Too many variables to take into consideration.
Maybe if running two known cars with two known good drivers...both having run the 1/4 enough to get a 'best' run.
But if you guys say it, I gotta believe it. Ill be running a slightly modded SRT at the strip this thursday. Hes a decent driver, but could improve. We'll see what happens.

EVO vs S thread. My two cents is this. Stock for stock with both good drivers will very from car to car from a roll. Won some lost some when stock. Soon though they will be no contest. Literaly. From a stop EVO will always win with a good launch.

Yea, all 150 or so of the S2000's torque can sneak up on you in a hurry.....
with it, it will bite you in the ass. Nothing more, nothing less. If you're going to be a retard, get outta here. We don't need your insight into the S2000.

LiQiCE ...Haha, How'd you know. I totally agree 
I havent even been reading the SE forum lately, why? Only thing I did notice was that when I posted actual vids, I noticed nobody wanted to throw in any smartass remarks
BTW, You need to learn how to drive the S before you start racing. Its difficult sometimes to judge if your in the right gear or not.
PS..still looking for a cam to get some vid.
