Robispec / Yokohama goes for RL Street Tire Championship
We are happy to announce a partnership between Robispec & Yokohama for the
Redline Time Attack Street Tire Championship.

Nils Leufven (driver) & Robert Fuller (car owner & crew chief) are going to campaign
Robispec's red Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 8 for the remaining season, featuring
Yokohama ADVAN AD08's, KW race shocks, Fully built Buschur motor, etc....
& some super duper brake pads that we cant even talk about yet!

Between Nils' many overall class wins & robi's vast experience, we expect to
be competitive right out of the gate & pushing hard through-out the year.
The first event being the Big Willow (WSIR) time attack at the end of this
month.

more pics & updates in this thread to come.

Any sponsorship opportunities are being considered at this point, pls feel
free to send us a PM if interested.

Congrats on the partnership.... Does this mean that your cars development will take a back burner for the rest of the season?

I think you guys would do so much better running in "modified" ....



plus I think watching the "JC -vs- Robispec" battle would be comical to watch...
