Evasive Motorsports FR-S at Superlap Battle.
It's official! we have set the record for fastest street tire time ever at Buttonwillow with 1:53.99 with our S2000, and have gone sub 2 min with the FR-S debut..with laptime of 1:59.2 Taking 1st and 3rd in each class! we are pleased to see the car perform so well it's first time out. Considering the car was built in a such short period of time. We were able to gather a lot of data to make improvements to the car.

Is there a link to the Official results? I'm curious what the competitor cars were that beat your FRS and the general lap times of those that competed.
|
REPRESENT!! Nice Job out there w/ the cars :)
|
That has got to be one of the coolest car's I've seen. Looks fantastic on the track! Congrats on the great lap times :)
|
Was the supercharger workong?
What's the suspension setup? Cngratulations on breaking the 2 minite barrier but I can't help thinkin that this car should have another ten sexonds in it with the aero, the eztra power and the stixky tires, :happy0180: |

How about now :) |
whats the suspension setup please?
|
Right now we are running V3 from KW. Still need to dial in the suspension a bit more.

I'll search the net and see what I can come up with. I'm sure the results aren't secret although I could see why a builder might want them to be. As stated - given the SC/Extreme Aero/Sticky Tires I would have expected faster but rather than make assumptions I wanted to see what setups beat this car. Edit found the 2011 results for now: http://superlapbattle.com/blog/wp-co...s-658x1024.jpg |
For those that think the car should be faster, you are right.. the car has the potential to go very fast... and we have collected valuable data to make that happen. We received the car in August from Scion and have built the car in 2 months without much sleep to get it ready for the SEMA show, and with 2-3 days of preparation after SEMA we got the car ready to run at Superlap Battle... so to answer your question, should the car go faster? yes. Are we disappointed in the lap time we ran? NO. to take a stock Scion FR-S and to build something unique and different and prove it will hold up on the track and still set fastest FR-S time to date all within 3 months time, to us its a major accomplishment.
We have set and held records in AWD and RWD classes with our EVO and S2000, those cars did not get fast from day one, it takes years of R&D, testing and refinements to dial in a car. Especially a new platform. Orthow, if you have anymore questions please do not hesitate to call me and i'd be happy to discuss tire / suspension and chassis setup with you over the phone... so maybe you can better understand what it takes to build a fast car.

Just got beat out by an NSX and an M3? Not bad! |
Not sure I understand the hostility. its funny that 59's are scoffed at now days. It is lost on most people how fast that really is at Buttonwillow. I know their car wasn't working well as a completed system, but a 59 is still about 13 seconds a lap faster than a stock car. Sure there is a ton of potential in set up, but this is a great demonstration of the fact that a fast car is not just made up of fast parts. They have to work together in harmony for the driver to do their job. I'm sure they will go faster. For now, they have set the bar for the fastest FR-S there. I'm about 4 seconds behind. Looking to fix that soon. :)
Best, Matt |
Crawford ran a 1:59 yesterday i think, full interior but way more power than the Evasive car.
|
i like that guy trying to call you guys out on your times when it was the first time the car has been on track.
youd expect a bunch of excitement about someone running an fr-s in time attack events... but on this forum it seems like everyone complains or down talks no matter what. |
crawford ran their times yesterday on C91s and a built motor that was looking hurt. They were about 5 seconds faster than my stock drivetrain car on RS3 street tires...

.....1:59 unlimited RWD?
For people who follow time attack, especially at buttonwillow, that time is fucking amazing. Especially for a car with very little R&D, considerably less power than its competitors assuming your still running the 225.5whp and 182lb-ft, and very little seat time for your driver on that car and setup. Iv ran buttonwillow before, and I got to say... Evasive you fucking have blown my mind. Reminds me of visiting Japan one time and attended a time attack session at Tskuba, only to witness a s15 with less than 400hp on street tires compete with cars with more power, more traction, R-compounds. Only to take home the fastest lap of the day. But that s15 had years of R&D put into it. The Zx6 is proving to be an amazing platform for people who want to be serious in motorsports, even if its out of the box performance is nothing to gripe about. |
Awesome first track runs. Kick ass Evasive!!
|
The car is so gorgeous. Congrats!
|
Well done good time :)
|
congrats, all show and go here, this is the REAL DEAL!
|
Wow...there are people with rather hostel tones to their comments in this thread. It's their 1st time out....gesh..tough crowd.
|
Yeahhhhh buddy! I see a bright future for this car. Congratulations guys!
|
I hope my comment about Crawford wasn't taken negatively, i was just comparing the two since the times were so similar and was more of a kudos to Evasive to getting the same time with a lot less power.
|
Awesome times from a new car!
Everyone else, a new chassi takes time to develop. The S2000s and NSXs have 10+ years of experience and experiments to learn from. |
Car looks good guys, definitely stood out at SEMA.
|
:eyebulge:That time is insane, especially with 3 months R&D. You guys at Evasive are off to an incredible start, can't wait for the video. Congratulations again :thumbsup:
