The absolute number one reason we built this car was to shut mouths about "drag racing this and that." Now that it is built it is becoming a serious addiction, it is much more fun to be challenged by a 20 minute datalog and tuning than it is 7 second of WOT on a drag pass.

^^^^^Finally, my prayers have been answered :-) The Evo is a rally and road race car, NOT a drag car. I've never understood the overwhelming obsession with drag racing and power on this board vs. suspension and overall balance.

I remember seeing pictures a while back with your signature exhaust but it looks like you've got something new on there now. What did you decide to go with?? Custom 3"?

All I ask from a shock is when I change a setting the car feels diferent..(sometimes worse sometimes better...lol) the car went from tight before the last session took out .02 degrees rear camber.a slight toe adjustment and added 2 clicks bump took out 10 degrees of rebound ans the car loosened right up..(the little wiggle mentioned befor,,hehehehe

Its because its cheap/easy/cheap to drag race. You cannot deny that the car is excellent in both venues. i LOVE to road race, and wish i could afford to do it.

but power, you can use in all kinds of ways.....like stomping a$$ on the interstate, no balance needed for that. (disclaimer: on closed course only)

again, if i could do either, and money was no option....id be at the track everyweekend on 255 hoosiers and a 20g-9 doin it up.

The new surface is smooth BUT hard to get ahold of.. before the bumps determined the entry and exit "settings on the suspension..either way give me a day at a track and we'll get the car stuck or supple depending on what is the fastest way around the track....you aught to see some of the picts we got..car transfering so much weight we're almost picking up the inside tires (only about 1/3 still balancing the car....like it was on rails these KW race Varient 3's double adjustables really did what was expected of them..no fade either, (and yes I was worried with the power and Grip of this car) the car was as fast at the end of the session as the start.....

Robi, ".02 degrees rear camber" (1/50"), or is it .2, or 2mm? You could breath on it and change it .02. Just giving you a hard time.

Will you be driving at Beaver in a few weeks?
