1st Time in an Evo

This was my first time in an Evo. The man and wife who owned the car allowed me and my friend and my friend's cousin to get a ride along on a course in Fostoria, Ohio. This was me and my friends first time in a ride along and the first time we have ever been in an Evo.

The 1st two Evo runs was me doing a ride along. The 3rd Evo run after the Honda Civic Si was my friend doing a ride along. The 1st two runs the Evo had some problems but they got it fixed and ran great for the rest of the day.

In the 2nd video was my 3rd run with the man. My friend who filmed the runs happened to not film my 3rd run so here it is from the car's point of view.

Best bet is that you want one now don't ya?

Go ahead and admit it its one of the best feeling cars you have ever riden in, and just wait till you can get behind the wheel of one. It will make you want one that much more.

I remember my first taste of boost and tight suspension. It was an instant seller.

Same! i knew the first time i ever saw one and actually read about it it was the car for me. Never rode or seen one in person till the day I got mine. The first time i actually took her out to play reaffirmed everything I had thought and more.

Well I have wanted one before I rode in it. When me and my buddy got there. We were walking up and seen a blue Evo and a blue Evo and we were both like "Dude Evo..." So when the blue Evo started its runs I asked the driver if I could get some ride alongs. He let me every time I asked. He also let my friend in.

i couldnt help but notice... is the blue evo on street tires in SM class?
SM class requires slicks/rcomps to even be competitive.

When I first started watching WRC, I knew I wanted one. And that was about 15 years ago before they came state side.

I never thought they were fast until one day I rode in one that my friend was driving. I remember I had the craziest look on my face and from that day on I was evo all day. These cars are so amazing thumbs up to mitsu!
