EVO X Vs Aston Martin Vantage GT4/ C6-Z06 / M3

The Evo went out for it's first testing session this weekend, to bed-in the new engine. So lots of short shifting, no floor or diffuser, stock brakes from last season and a set of street tyres (tires)






Here is some footage for you...... it was quite dusty so it wasn't wise to use the full width of the track, hence the conservative lines.

That's to much... to busy. I personally don't like that body kit. I do like the ideea of a clean center exhaust tho. Your car looks better without that aero kit in the back.
Anyways, great car and nice video.

Gotta love this Evo. Does all of us proud to see an Evo doing so well on a road course. Kudos to you MDH for all the work and effort you put into the car and the driving.

Thanks a lot!

The X is actually a very good track car, well balanced progressive and has great weight distribution.

There really was too much power and torque for street tyres this weekend, so I cant wait to get the aerokit on it and run with some Pirelli Slicks! Then we will see what she is really made of!
