Why is your trap so low?I was browsing around earlier and a guy with a SS/SC with Stage 2 and a couple other things ran a 13.7 but his trap was 105.(Not saying that was relavient to your car and maybe his ET was just high)
I MIGHT be making 230-235 hp, which is not a lot, and the car with me in it is probably in the 3500 pound range.

And with that 1.85 60' I was making the absolute most of the power I had. My car's just not a powerful car.

I've seen equally modded New Edges trapping 2-3 mph higher, but generally no more than a tenth faster.

Any reason in particular that you'd opt for an EVO instead?

Very impressive ETs btw!

Just like the look/style and drivetrain better. I have been wanting an Evo since ~03 but it just never happened..

I know my car wouldnt come close to a lot of cars in a roll race, but the lower and lower my ET gets, the fewer and fewer cars I could beat from a roll that are running similar ETs.

That video is an example.

I liked it better when I was running 14.5's at 100 lol
