Where are all the EVOs?!?

Hey evom... So i finally made the move to the US after living my entire life in the Virgin Islands... One of the reasons (not THE reason) was to check out the racing scene. I went to my first street/pro drag race event lastnight at Orlando Speed World and there were ALOT of cars from exotic/muscle/imports... and even though i was happy about the turn out, i kept asking myself one question... WHERE THE HELL ARE ALL THE EVO'S... i was the ONLY one there... 2 more IX's showed up about an hour before the event finished... but that was it

Evo's are kinda sparse...unless you live in Cali from my understanding. I have never had more then 2 or 3 around me anywhere I have lived.

Evo is not really made for Pro drag racing. It shines on roadcourse and other non-VHT surfaces. Your better know your game

There are plenty here in Jax, Fl. The Evolution is not a civic though. Not like your going to go buy a pack of smokes and see 3 of em on the way.

Want to see Evos,.. show up here on Nov 20th.

From Chicago to Western Pennsylvania! You have AMS, Buschur, Shep, and the remnants of the Slowboy crowd.

Some people on SoCalEvo told me that about 75% of all Evos in the US are in Cali.. Anyone know how accurate this is?
