The best part of all this is that Mike beat out a tube frame viper with a twin turbo big block at that race taking first. Talk about one fast Evo

Another funny thing is he forgot to take off his side mirrors. It was like 2 mickey mouse ears going for a 215.9 mph ride.

That alone is at least another mph.

He would like to thank Devo Tuning, Shearer Fabrications, Shep Trans, Head Dynamics, Class One engines, Arias Pistons, Aura Racing and Kiggly Racing for all of there awesome work to help him take an EVO into the record books once again.

The next event should be fun.
