lets ignore the 2m 49 shall we!!


best there for the Evo was a 2m51+ and i reckon a CSL could match that if driven by someone better than me - but not beat it by much!

ive crossed checked the data against my data and makes for interesting reading

not much in it as youd expect as only about 2-3,5s diference but a few points (in km/h)

here is a little comparison i drew up

• Green is my 2009 2m54.0s (same day as the evo)
• Blue is my 2010 2m 57.6s (drying conditions!)
• Evo is 2009 2m51.4

You can see where i have marked the Evos top speeds and lowest speeds on the corners for comparisons. i know there is a lot more to it than that but its soemthing to talk about!

Very little in it as you would expect as my ideal lap out of the two shown is a 2m 52.2s




here is my vid of the day (not the 2m 54 but 2m 54.7 i think)

Reason I ask is I was looking at this vid of 2009 MLR trackday of an Evo X SST like mine with near 400bhp.
Running on cups, KW clubsport. Similar spect to what mine will be.

Vid shows best of 2.51, but he ran a 2.49, seems pretty quick?

What did curly and Shimmy run? Was it 2.54?

It sounds so soulless tho shane, is that really your thing?

Want.

:drool::drool::drool::drool::drool::drool:can't say anymore than that really:smokin:

Mine will sound a little bit more fruity, and he was running in full auto mode too. I prefer manual shifting.

Its hard for me to get the right car Jim, being a one armed fucker and all.
Manual it would be GT3 no question, but.... needs to be auto or SMG type and I felt as I said I had taken the CSL to my limits. Driver tuition might have made me quicker, who knows.

I just wondered what the pace was like.

I always felt my CSL was approx 390-400bhp evo pace over a full lap of a flowing circuit.

Just wanted to know if 2.49 was fast:thumbs:, to be fair judging different drivers in evos than the CSL is a bit like comparing apples and pears.

When the guy in the vid was there this yr in the GTR, ( dunlop stickers) I passed him so I dont know how good a driver he is, he seemed smooth though.
Almost curlyesque

I will know better next yr from Oulton park, as this is really the only track I have firm stats from in the CSL.

I can then give a true comparison, between the 2.

My business partner in his 400bhp evo I think ran 1.54@ oulton on yoko a048's.

The cars are like chalk and cheese, both have weaknesses and strengths in different areas. both great fun though.

~I would like to give the curlymacher a go in my Evo, see how fast he can take it. :beer:

Curlyesque:hahaha: i know what your doing there shane the thing is for a road legal car like the Evo with a few mild tweeks are 2.49 at Spa and a 1.54 at Oulton are pretty damn fast times, Glenn Mc with a GT3RS who races in the porsche carrera cup was doing about 2.47's at Spa and 1.53's at Oulton.

Yes Shane I would love to have a go in your new Evo maybe in the new year when its a bit warmer at Oulton or at the Super Snett showdown in March next year :smokin::hahaha:
