There has been debate that Mike Reichen's EVO 2 is a lot lighter than it actually is. We were at the shop late tonight and decided to make a video showing the little record setting beast being lowered onto the scales at Douglas Autoworks. With driver it's over 2800 lbs, and that's without the second fire supression installed, the fuel cell and intercooler water tank half filled as well as some additional aero body pannels off of the car. We are about to hit the dyno soon for even more power over our record setting 1127 awhp on a 2.0 4g63, and we have some new improved aero pannels yet to be installed. This year should be interesting to say the least .

All of our cars will be on display next weekend at World Of Wheels in Rosemont, IL.

 

I have seen this car run and it is sick! The MPH you guys are running is crazy!

 

who needs a bugatti when you have this car i am also very suprised to still see door panels full dash and ect keep up the good work what tranny do you guys use ?

 

Very nice...will you guys be at Texas this year??

 

As of right now the plan is to make an appearance at some point this year in tx but it won't be the early race, keep posted to see how we do.

 

Heard that Reichen was going to offer rides in his car for $200 a pop ... at some closed off road in Mexico Good luck to him and shop this year.

 

On April 2nd & 3rd we will be attending the 2011 Maxton Mile in Maxton, NC. Mike Reichen and his Worlds Fastest Evo are going to attempt to go even faster. We've spent MANY hours modifying the beast for this years racing events. The main concentrations have been in both aerodynamics as well as engine performance. The car will be attending the Maxton Mile with quite a few custom parts fabricated in house. We can't put a guess on how fast the car will go, but theoretically speaking this car should fly this time out. We realize it is quite a far trip for people to come watch but I will say first hand that it's very cool and something you are definitely missing out on if you haven't been to a mile race yet. Maxton is the track at which Mike previously went 237.6MPH about this time last year. Wish us luck and I plan on providing updates throughout the weekend as time permits.
