None of the cars in those were involved in Street Racing...
All of that was done at a drag strip...

My Car is stock and I can keep up with a VTEC pretty well but he still won the race.

You're comparing apples to oranges here. The Alero has a bunch more mods but is also a heavier car so this really means nothing

can you take some pics of your engine bay and your interior, ?
what suspension mods do you have ? lowering springs ? coil-overs ? struts ??? what kind ?
and you say you ran 14.xx on 17 inch wheels ?

Stop bashing the guy.
I run 15.1 with I/H/E and horrible traction. He has extra TB, IM. Although I want to see that 14 second slip too :)
Btw, your alero guy has slicks. 2.1 60' time with 14.9@89mph can be only achieved with slicks!
This should be moved to Drag racing section. Mods?

He runs on his street tires with 18 inch rims, so no he doesnt run slicks. If he had slicks he would run lower 14's with his mods, Trust me I owned a Alero for 1 year so I know the car very well.

Now lets get back on topic. I think if he cant prove that he can run 14's then Everyone is gonna have a hard time believing him, but it is completly possible that he can I am not saying he cant.
OdessitPashka
04-26-2005, 11:08 PM
I'm sorry but I don't see it being possible to get into 14s at 89mph on a FWD car with street tires. It kind of goes against physics and racing laws... No matter what you say, I call it bullsh*t. I believe that he can run 14s, but there is something very shady about his trap speed and 60' times for street tires. To be in low 14s he would need to have 94mph for his trap speed and I don't see how he'd be able to get extra 4-5mph out of nowhere to run low 14s.
And back to our guy, it's very possible that he's running 14s. As I told you before, I run 15.1 with I/H/E and bad traction because of the alignment(very negative camber).
With BBTB and ported IM I will be in 14s all day long :)

yea that slip definately looks like the alero on the left side and something rear wheel drive or with slicks on the right. but the number on the car in the picture and the slip match what kind of gearing do those things have?
but still the matter at hand is evolantras claims
wheres the proof??
tharptroy
04-27-2005, 12:15 PM
odessit, 2.1 60' times are completely doable on street tires in a FWD car.
the fact is that most of us are just bad at driving (me especially). or we have a bad suspension setup.
judging by 60' times, I'd say the other lane was someone who wanted to do a burnout with their street tires to look cool.
The alero definetely is not a BS claim (pictures, timeslips, what else do you need?)
other claims in this thread do need to be verified.
OdessitPashka
04-27-2005, 01:18 PM
I'm not saying that those times are not doable, but not on the street tires at that trap speed. I know those cars are capapable of getting into 14s especially with the mods that he's done, but I've raced more than anyone else on this website and spent way too much time at the drag strips, so I can say what's true and what's bullcrap!
At 89mph you cannot be in 14s with street tires and have 2.1 60' time. It's simply impossible. I'm 99.999% sure that run was made on slicks; or going up the hill....
another theory is that he slowed down before he finished race, but that would be retarded.
And stop bashing that guy. 14s on N/A XD is also very doable!
you also run a 15.1 in an RD, which is different gearing and less weight.
I just don't believe a 14.93 in a slightly modified elantra
shawn :)
OdessitPashka
04-27-2005, 01:29 PM
Yes, I have a little more agressive gearing than XD, but weight should be about the same because he gutted his car and he has more mods than I do.
tharptroy
04-27-2005, 01:40 PM
he also could have held 3rd gear through the traps
OdessitPashka
04-27-2005, 01:47 PM
3rd gear at 89mph? I don't know gearing on those cars, but I have to shift into 4th at 67mph.
tharptroy
04-27-2005, 01:58 PM
WHAT!?
I can hold 3rd until about 90....must switch to RD gears!
wow, I am shifting into third @ 62 mph
see, like i said, the gearing in a RD is COMPLETELY different.
jeez
FordFasteRR
04-27-2005, 02:00 PM
i can go to about 89 or so in 3rd gear...
I'm still waiting to see pics of this guys engine and car ...

Well, I feel that anything is possible. There are so many factors that can affect how your car runs aside from just the mods. There are track conditions, which are almost always disregarded, and there is the driver's skill too. Here is something that might help people to understand. Take well-known magazines such as "Car-and-Driver" and "Mototrend" for example. In almost every issue, those people are testing cars in almost every aspect, including 1/4 mile. If you look at the 1/4 mile ETs published in the mag, and then look at the 1/4 ET of someone at the track with you, I GAURANTEE they will be different (assume both cars are stock). Why is that? Well, that's driver skill...
Ok, well back to the main point, I agree with Ford, let's see those pics! If Evolantra really did do 14.9, then great! At least it's nice to know that we all to have that chance! If it's a lie, then so be it, he'll get spanked by cars that do go that fast.

The only thing I dont get is that he got owned by a 2003 Elantra GT when he kills old-school 'stangs like it was nothing.
oh, and the fact that SOOOO many cars blew their engines while running with him is a little weird too.
aLoNe I bReAk
04-28-2005, 03:31 AM
Actually Kewlkat, if you look closely, most of the cars that blew their motors were on the "cars that beat me" list. Also, it appears to me that half of this thread was the debate over his 14.93 run. Evolantra stated that he had only done that once, and that he was running consistent at 15.6. IMO an Elantra GT could do this too (hello...EXD??). To me, there is a difference between getting beaten, and getting "owned" as you say. It is very possible that the Elantra GT beat him by .1 or .2 ("winning is winning" ...that quote fits in great here lol). Getting owned, imo, is like getting rocked by 2 secs or more.

I kind of find it funny but I hang out at a drag strip just about every Thursday...I hang out with people that do alot of stupid things to they're cars...my friend with the GS-R...he decided to port out is Headers...and His CAT...and even his stock piping...strange kid...but that erased all of his back pressure and he burn't up his valves and then actually bent 3 of them when he was racing me the second time...
The RX-7 was strickly for racing...the guy that owned it has gone through Rotories Like we go through tires...
And the kid with the Del Sol didn't blow his motor racing me...he did it on his way to school tryin' to race a Comaro...but yeah I know...I wasn't involved...
He was runin' a 125 shot NX bottle on a stock motor...and he was on his 3rd refill...he was askin' for it...but yeah...
