The EVO had no chance.
EVO is down 33 HP and has 4wd which eats up more HP than 2wd....the race was over before it began.

Well, the Evo had some work done. Aftermarket blow-off valve, exhaust, who knows what else. A lot of essentially-free mods can be done that give them quite a bit more horsepower than stock, but still would've been down on power most likely.
There's a *few* mature Evo drivers out there...

When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?
Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

Did anyone notice how they were trying to size up the BMW before they decided to race it? (i.e. "is that an M3 or an M5", "is it AWD or RWD") That kind of defeats the idea of racing someone in the first place if you already figure that you can beat them. I wouldn't race a chevette with my porsche. I think psycologically speaking, these guys were seeking a form of domination over another person. By using a car where some others would use violence, intellect or something else. Kind of like how a bully would pick on smaller kids.
But then again, as fast as an EVO may be, it's still a Mitsubishi Lancer. Oh, er, I mean, cool vid!

I've seen this vid before. It's funny how they shutup pretty quick once the race gets underway and the M3 starts putting buslenghs on them.

I likey the M3. How would the M3 fair against the Boxster in a match up like that.
Adam, you ever match up against one?
