pass time evo

just got home from work and happened to see that lame show "pass time" on speed vision. i guess a gameshow to guess people's Et. anyway, a guy in a yellow 03 evo is on the show. claims its a bolt on, stock turbo car running a race gas tune. and 30psi. the contestants didnt seem to know what it was. one even asked if it was an automatic

anyway he lines up. hes on the two-set and wouldnt you know it, he breaks. sucks for that guy, but damn, way to rep the evo community. the one time ive seen an evo on one of these shows and hes getting pushed off the line.
