New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

There has been a lot of threads on this lately on the national forums, team in Puerto Rico put it together, I guess the guy driving it is pretty beast.

Looks like the X can throw down solid numbers with the right driver and setup.

The video has other stuff too, but the white evo at the end is the new record holder in case you couldn't tell ;)

Awesome little video, love the jamz in the backround

Re: New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

That thing left the line hard as fuck the first run!

Dubstep makes everything better :) I personally really enjoyed the 1G...old timer still kicking it with the new boy'z and all their fancy new Technology'zz. Fast evo....i wonder whether its on a OEM bottom end...and what drive train? Sounded like a regular transmission. I just watched a video the other day of the new EVO X horsepower record being like 908AWHP that was sweet!

Nice, that thing looks heavy.

I liked the 1G movign out too.

Re: New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

It is heavy, I don't think its gutted or anything, full interior. Just a good driver.

Re: New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

Such short gears. Looks like everyone is braking x records lately.

Re: New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

He has a longer final drive too I believe.

Otherwise you are stuck shifting to 5th.

My car hits like 130ish before I have to shift to 5th and thats at 9000rpms. I am leaning towards a new final drive in the future, but not sold on it yet.

Andrew re-geared his IX and it's a great mod, especially with his increased displacement.

Re: New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

I like at the end how it shows him just rolling up to the line wearing a hat.

Re: New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

Murlo, is your trans stock? I assume you upgraded that pin that breaks.( i don’t remember exactly which part it is)

Re: New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

I just have the diff pin upgrade yes, well that and an ACT 6 puck, otherwise stock.

The X trans is really really stout.

Re: New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

I thought the X gears were the same ratios as the IX gears?

What was the time?

Re: New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

9.64 @ 144

Re: New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

I really wish I would have had the 4.11 final drive put in my trans when it was rebuilt by shep 3 years ago. At the time, I never though I would have enough power to make it worthwhile.

Re: New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

Very very similar; for real-world purposes you can consider them the same since tire choice will have a larger impact than the mechanical differences. Owning/driving both you'd be hard pressed to ever notice the difference.

Re: New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

Goddamn thats quick, esp for 'only' ~700whp? (if I read the dyno graph right)

I swear their track down there is ~1250' long and downhill, that is really impressive!

Re: New 1/4 Mile Record for the Evo X
 

It's funny because everyone on evoxforums was joking about the track being downhill or short or other things lol.

Seems to be a lot of "records" at PR that people question. But I guess people called out a bunch of PR guys and challenged them at a track in florida then the PR guys came and put a whooping on them.
