I'd LOVE to tune the car. Right now it has a base map in it that I pretty much guessed at. Vesko told me the car was strong. I was hoping to atleast get a log from it running around the block near the shop but I have not. It's scarey to me to have the car racing at this level without a real tune in it.

Good luck guys, I am hoping for the best from you.

Turns out the car ran a bunch of 2:02's anyway. Near the back of the pack in the first practice. I know Vesko likes to not show his hand. Hopefully that's what's going on.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Daaaamn sexy

You know everyones gotta admit the car is so clean & smooth not like some of the time attack evos we see alot of. It just looks so good and I haven't seen Vesko run anything else but those wheels, I remember when he was trying to talk me into a set

Wes, Thats cause they are the freakin sickness. I have a set for my bmw, but they are 18x10!! Ftw.

I haven't talked to vesko yet, but i'll update when i do. My guess is that there is still an elec issue. He told me if it ran in practice, great. If not, its going in the trailer and he will focus on Byron's E90.

Here are my pics from the track on friday. I will have a video up later today. Looked great, sounded great, and was fast! Great having an Evo road racing in WC.

It was nice talking to you Lara. Hope to see you out there in an Evo soon.

floor mounted, along with the pedal relocation the driver seat is relocated as well to create a lower CG.

It's actually mounted further back to improve the weight distribution front-to-rear.

They didn't try to qualify. So the car must be acting up still. Too bad.

Sad, I'm sure they will get it right.

Maybe they can get it squared away and tuned prior to going back to the left coast?
