Am i reading this right?..
You have an EVO VIII which I am not so sure I even know what that car is.. Looks like a Toyota or something.....I just don't know what the EVO's are, never paid close attention to them I guess? Call my un informed, stupid, whatever, is that Toyota?... What does the EVO have under the hood that is such a good mod base for speed? I understand they are a lightweight imports but damn cleaning an 11 second Z06 by 3 0r 4 car lengths from a dig is just sick and unbelieveable.....

Hey jibby, you have a car that is basically toyota just another name and you thought an evo was one. 2 the op, if i'm right, an evo 8 has like 286hp and like 287 tq at the motor stock. AWD plus some mods and I could see you launching him, but I don't think you would be able to take him past maybe 90 or so unless you got alot more done than I am giving you credit for. Either way good kill

And less and less people there every week with all those foreclosures. Sorta sad actually but yeah there's plenty of space out there. Construction has been halted and there's freshly paved roads everywhere. There's also Altamont Raceway around here but I haven't been out there yet. Doesn't seem like the new ownership group is big on public track days.
