I think we are going to run in it, I just ordered some parts from Europe, Noah is making a turbo restrictor for the car, he also needs to get a helmet. Just trying to get the car all done so I can get a log book, are you coming to watch us?

Wow Dmitri, your EVO is pretty much a built up rally car. Very nice!!!
Zip-ties add 30hp each, my old AE86 had to rock a few for awhile. The back bumper was hanging and rubbing the left tire, this bumper was hanging by a lone busted mount. I replaced it about 3 months later, lol.

I would LOVE to buy this car... But i think $50k WITH the spares would be a better price... And i'm ordering my helmet next week... Fuckin $650 helmet... And my fire suit as well.. Another $300 gone... And I'm also working on fabbing up a Hydraulic handbrake for the car as well as a turbo restrictor.

$600 helmet....damn + $300 fire suit. Wow
Forget about all those...real rally racers wear bicycle helmets and speed racer halloween costumes from walmart. $30 max and super fireproof when away from open flames.

No...they banned the batman costume. No one wanted to race batman, they were like " Holy shit!! is that batman....I better slow down" Thus stopping several teams from running good times in fear of a bat-asswhoopin. This is what happened to Travis Pastrana in CO at the end of the 2007 season.
Speed racer is ok, people just think the fast talking japanese guy ate some wicked wasabi and needs to inhale some fresh air.
*I cant believe that all that above came out of my head.....they must be coating them frosted flakes with some good stuff these days*
