Here is my prediction. It will do 0-60 in 3.5 secs, but in order to obtain that kind of acceloration you will need to launch the car at 5000-6000rpm. Mitsubishi will see this abuse when the car is serviced and void the driveline warrenty. The previous Evos had limiters to prevent such abuse. If I remember correctly they were limited to 4,500 rpm when the clutch was not engaged (please correct me if I'm wrong). They also came equiped with a insanely weak clutch.

I really like this car. I think it will be a track terror (not talking shit, really). I'm considering either an Evo 8/9 or a C5 for a track only car.
I think I'd probably choose a C5 Z06 for a track only car, but an EVO8/9 would also be a solid choice.
