I love watching this thread, it is the most convincing thing to buy an evo seeing you use it as mitsu had intended.

I need to get a ride with you at one of these track days, I know you like being modest but I feel with the seat time you have combined with your mindset you are not some slow noob that you try to infer to being.

Don't forget about this thread, it is awesome to see the fun you are having with this.

Right? I rode with him at the last DCTC event and he was tearing it up!

It’s awesome to see your progress into the turn style racing, congratulations on your weekend! It’s great that the car held together and that you had such a great time! It’s very inspirational too, especially for me. I’m very impressed and starting to get inspired to try it out for myself!

Hell yea!

All I can say is if you are thinking about trying this: brakes brakes and tires! At minimum, bleed your brake fluid with some good quality fluid. If you plan on doing it more than once, consider some track pads. HP Plus are awesome and cheap. Last, make sure you have decent tires. My fuzions are iffy in general, but being an 'ultra high-performance summer tire' and having a lot of tread on them when I started...I deemed them ok for learnin' to turn. Now that I have 4 events under my belt, they will be the first to go.

Lag is a bitch on the road course and you don't want a sudden surge of power.

Scheides ready for Chumpcar? The speeds aren't quite as fast, but you do get to try to take those corners 2 or 3 cars wide.

His dyno graph was quite impressive IIRC. But yeah I know a 5858 would be preferred.

Honestly, KISS. The FASTEST evos out there are stock turbo (or stock frame) and not too big. Again I was SO glad to have a stock turbo...power just everywhere in the rev range and you don't get into any trouble if the revs get too low.

Not sure where I'm going with this yet to be honest! I certainly am entertaining all ideas but for now I'm just focusing on budget (so I can keep going) and making sure to just have fun! We'll see what the rest of the summer holds but for now I'm super happy doing events like this.

Looking good! Glad to see you out ripping it on the track!

SO FUN DUDE! Car is well sorted now, you should drive it again.
