He has been around racing all of his life. Gocarts as a kid then bracket racing in the later years. He is in his 50's now.
Over the weekend while I was in the hospital, pregnant wife had complications but everything is cool, he was out cruising in the Evo. He was helping me watch our kids while I was gone and at some point he had a shift change with my sister and burned up over a 1/4 tank of gas. A quick backround on my Evo, 3065 + all the bolt ons 272's yada yada running on 110 leaded. I talk to him the next day and he is still grinning from ear to ear. Holy **** was mentioned about 50 times. More than I have heard in probably 5 years combined. We work together so I do see him pretty often too. Now he is looking to buy a car for the drag strip. Evo's can do some wonderful things.

 

Im trying to convence my dad to drive mine..... he is one of those "no replacement for displacement " guys.... but wont drive my car... he say its "to low to the ground" and all this stuff......

 

my parents never even sat in my car....lol
and i live with them

 

My dad said I was driving too fast and he was scared when I was going 75. Max RPM was about 4000.

 

my dad is the same way. And I hear the complaints afterwards about how his back is stiff as hell from the ride and seats.

 

Congrats on letting your Dad enlighten himself as to how much these car's really rock. My Dad has always had love for extreme autos just mostly twords the exotic side of things, He also grinned for days after having my car for a weekend...Guess old dogs can learn new tricks.

Also, Congrats and best wishes to your family for the new addition!

 

My dad loves my evo...he used to have an STI but I still think he likes the evo better lol

 

my dad likes driving my car around, while my mom is terrified of it and doesn't like to drive it lol.

 

I am trying to get my dad to buy my friend's 06 TB MR. My friend is practically giving the car away but my dad wants an STI because he likes subarus.

 

I wish i still have my dad

 

I have a video of my dad and I racing up to 165+, me in the evo, him in the viper gts haha he's crazier than I am

 

Both my parents are terrified to jump in my car which also makes me nervous while driving with them

 

Congrats on the baby lexat20, my dad swears his new 5.7l 400hp toyota tundra can take my evo! That truck is like 6000lbs!
