With less than 500 miles on the car, I started making some 1/4 mile passes up at US 41 dragway. With the launch control, the 60' times are 100% consistant at 2.0xx.
My best time of the night was my last run. I let the transmission shift itself, and then to hold 4th gear until the end of the track I switched it into manual mode.
60' . . . . . . . 2.019
1/8 ET . . . . 8.835
1/8 MPH . . . 78.91
1/4 ET . . . . 13.763
1/4 MPH . . . 101.10
Using the Jadco scales (local trucking company) the car weighed in at 3900 lbs with my fat ass in the seat, and a full tank of fuel (3640 without driver). These are truck scales that measure in incements of 20 lbs. Spare and tools in the trunk, just like I drive it on the street. My weight at the track was aprox 3874 due to burning aprox 4 gallons of fuel getting to the track.
With all the talk of how crappy EVO X MR's are in the 1/4 mile I almost didn't take a helmet figuring I would be running mid 14's! 3 out of 4 runs were in the 13's with one 14 flat on the run where I shifted for myself.

He is having clutch troubles and his first run was bad.... after letting the car cool off for over an hour he ran a 13.55x at 104.xx with a 1.8xx 60 foot time. This is with an upper IC pipe, air filter, and ECU re-flash on his GSR.
