First Run at the track this past friday

So I ran my 05 EVO VIII at the track for the first time this past Friday and my best time was a 13.6@104 with a 2.0 60'. The car is bone stock so I think I did pretty well for my first time ever going down the track in any car. What have other people run bone stock.

That's about right. Trap speed is a little better than a stock Evo, but with a good, hard launch you should be capable of low 13's. 104mph is good for stock though.

I made 13.34 @ 108 last year with exhaust and intake and stage 1 tuned. Being stock that's a pretty good run man. Keep it up

thanks man. i thought it was pretty good too especially being the first time i ever went down the track. i think i could have gotten a 13.5 with a little bit of a better launch and 60' but all in all im very happy with how the car performed and how i did haha

Dam 104mph is awesome for an VIII. I did 13.4 101.2 in an VIII

Nice vid! You got such a jump off the line that the Chevy guy burned off his tires... happens a lot when a RWD guy goes up agains AWD and tries to out 60' us

nice job, get it flashed and have your tuner teach you how to adjust the 2-step, that way you can adjust it for any track conditions without him having to be there.
