1/8th of a mile? PMSL at those comments.

Very quick car that's for sure

Must be a good clutch in there to do all those launches and the pre run tyre warming / mini launch things.

Exactly the kind of car I want my Evo to be, pleasant road trimmed, yet bloody quick as well.

Reading elsewhere about these runs, though the car is road trimmed and does mid to high 9s on Pump fuel, all of the runs were on slick tyres which of course helps substantially.

Very impressive

It is a 1/4 mile.


As said 155mph over the 1/8th would put it up with a Top Fuel dragster, which it clearly is not


Plus 9 seconds to get over the line would be as SLOW as my car is over the 1/8th.

Would need a crappy crap launch and 5000 bhp to do a 9 second 155mph 1/8th of a mile

Deffo not an 1/8 mile run, its simply a 1/4 mile with a very quick road car... that much is obvious!
