So you know about this car? He mentioned he bought 2 Evo 9s from 2 brothers, and this one was the one he brought out for our races. I told him about Vesko and it sounded like Vesko had built it for those guys, or had a hand in some of it.

Here are a few more pics. Ill incorporate them into my post on the 1st page:

A cone tried to eat my car during the Sat race. I finished both of my races (3rd on Sat, and 1st on Sun), with this mangled IC:







RRE reused my GReddy end tanks and welded in a new Griffen core. Mike trying to make sure its as cone proof and Ed proof as possible:

I don't know the specific details, I could ask a friend and find out. But Vesko built a ton of EVO's to run in MPRA the local series in Utah. He built cars for the shop and more for customers.

He usually runs that same wing, NT03's, Tien Super Racings with really high rates and stockish power. But he's done some higher power builds here and there - it's hard to tell by just the outside which specific car it is.

EDIT: fp green, basic bolt-ons for power, Tiens, Alcon brakes, was pretty fast in Utah. Near 6 figures paid by the guy who had the car built, sold for under $20K.

Saturday Race

Nice smooth high speed driving Ed.. Good track to just go real fast! I will have my chance at Pocono International in July, but Pocono's track surface is real rough to say the least. That's were my windshield was smashed by a piece of rubble that got flung at me by a Porsche GT3's rear tire. I wear a full face shield because of debris that can come straight through your wind shield in a high speed race. How did those older stock car drivers made it through their careers wearing open face helmets at nearly 200mph?

Thanks Dave. Oh yeah, the Roval at Cal Speedway is definitely where you want to be if you want to be flying. Some cars can easily hit +180mph. The other good thing about Cal Speedway is that its pretty easy on tires compared to the other Socal tracks we race on. One thing to note about Cal Speedway is that T1-2 are extremely more banked than my in-car illustrates. My in-car makes it seem like that section is pretty leveled, but its significantly more banked than it appears. Yeah, i dont know how anyone can drive with an open face helmet, especially at those speeds.

As stationary and quiet as cones are, they sure do a lot of damage. This is the result of that cone that tried to eat my car at the beginning of Saturdays race. You cant see the damage that my IC took, but you can see that i now have half a lip that is hanging. Also, if you look carefully, you can see my entire undertray dragging behind my RF tire:

I had a similar thing happen to me at Robeling, I had bottomed out the front lip/beatrush tray on the way to the track, then by the first corner exit onto the straight, got up to about 120 and WHAM folded that tray up like a damn soda can with half the lip going FWAP FWAP FWAP.
