Here is a vid of EVO on Drifting Competition:http://videos.streetfire.net/search/...42D7B46A16.htm

Any info o this EVO??

 

i wonder if they have it in AWD still,... i guess some people have been doing RWD conversions lately.

 

i heard rhys millen's name twice so im guessing it could be one of the rwd converted evos he has. i know i saw a vid of a silver evo 9 that was converted to rwd and he was drifting like mad inside a tiny parking lot. driftings cool and all but i dont think it suits the evo at all in any way. just my 2 cents

 

thats crazy

 

What wrong with EVO Drifting??Impreza also drift in D1.I actually hope EVO to drift in D1 so EVO could beat Impreza.

 

ha ha boys!
get an sti if you want to slide around

 

I think its hot... b/c its different and just because its an evo doesnt mean its only good at 1 thing and this proves it

 

I wouldn't be surprised to see a few Evo drift cars coming out before long. There is no reason an Evo wouldn't make a good drift car with the RWD conversion. It has a great suspension, percise steering, and the ability to make alot of power easily. The only thing I would be worried about is the reliability of the power steering system and the need for more steering lock.

 

the evo is rear wheel drive.

the rhys millen references could have been to the gto as it looks like their twin turbo one next to the evo.

 

There's a write up on the RWD (conversion) Evo's from Tokyo Drift in SSC.

 

That's pretty interesting. Very nice actually

 

That's Rich Rutherford's EVO. He was one of the drivers in F&F3 but the drift car is actually evom's IceSlidinFools (AKA Atlanta Formula D winner Tanner Foust) old 03' street car that was turned into a D1 car (you can see pics of the street car in my gallery, it's BBY).

He will be running the whole Formula D series this year and it is a very well turned out car with beautiful welding etc.. It also sports Vishnu Ohlins (drift spec ) shocks and I'm helping with the engineering of the car set-up wise and Shiv has/will be tuning it (not sure is he actually has yet).

I would expect the car to actually be capable of winning an event by the end of this year or more likely next year because the combo is so new. The EVO is not the quickest thing when you take the AWD away (as you all know) and finding rear grip is the current ongoing issue. It is constantly improving and is now competitive (as the video shows).

Props to Joe at CSU for help as well

 

that evo in f&f3 isn't even doing 13s...the 350 is the fastest one it runs a 13.2 ....it seems as though they tuned the cars down,the evo didn't even have 300 ponies....its crazy

 

Bump for cool vid
