A friend and customer, Mike Reichen, took his EVO 2 to the Texas Mile this last weekend for the first time. It's a two day event and he managed a best of 194mph on Saturday. Sunday he returned and the first successful run was ~200.5mph and the last run of the day he finished off with a blistering 202.249mph. This was good enough to take the win in Unlimited Street and take the class record away from a Supra.

Not bad for a first time outing and a car that is not very aero friendly. Congrats Mike!

Awesome! How much power does it have? How much does it weigh? How high was it revving? What's the gearing? Sorry for all the questions.
