Could that be because the WRC is a Lancer and not an Evo? You can't compare our cars to the WRC Lancer because they are totally different. Again, it's a Lancer, not an Evo. Now, back to the topic....

pklovis or whatever your name is-

All you have done for 2 days is jump in and give your unsolicited opinion on everybody's post. What the hell is your problem? Either add something positive to the forum or don't comment-

I tell you a few things I do know: I know what the Texas flag looks like. I also know what the English flag looks like. Finally, I know you are an idiot.

I would like for you to explain to me why the car is named the Evolution, because that would be funny.

Why did the Evo 6 stop winning races and championships? Hmmm, could it be that the FIA introduced a new WRC class that the Evo didn't fit into due to limited production rules according to homologation? What class is the new Lancer in? WRC, of course. The Evo is still not elligible for the WRC class. Why are the headlights different? The trunk? The hood? The tail lights? The bumpers? The engine? the rear spoiler? Because it isn't an Evo, that's why. It's a Lancer.
I am attaching a picture of an Evo 8 rally car. Please tell me how this car resembles the WRC car in any way, shape, or form.

I guess I'll just jump in here:
I want to know where to get some ralliart mudflaps. I live in Colorado, and I have a bra for the same reason I need mudflaps: they don't salt the roads here, they put down gravel everywhere on every highway, and right now Denver is being repaved, to say the least.
To say that the EVO is not that WRC car because it is not a lancer is one of the most odd things I have read on this board....my rear nameplate on my car says lancer evolution...it's not an EVO, it's a lancer EVO....ever watch a WRC event and see the drivers open the doors and get in and out? These cars ARE rally cars, check the group N rules, mods are pretty much limited to ECU, suspension, gagues, tranny, wheels, tires, and safety equipment and lighting. In fact, group N must use a boost restricted compressor housing. I happen to own a Lancer Evolution RALLY SPEC.

You need to take your Colour Co-ordinating BS out of here (that is so gay) and go bug someone else, and don't let the door hit you on the way out

Please tell me how this car resembles the WRC car in any way, shape, or form.

I will tell you how it represents the WRC in Shape and form, Cause it is a Mitsubishi LANCER EVOLUTION

The Homolgomation rules changed in 1997 with the debut of the FIA approved WRC class, Car makers are now allowed to compete with one-off, Group A rules based prototypes with no intention of building vehicles for public consumption. (as opposed to before where manufacturers had to produce 2,500 unit (cars) for public consumption) Mitsubishi elected to continue the radical development of the LANCER evolution group A vehicle that had already proven it's sucees in Competition, to stay competitive with the new breed WRC machines, the Lancer Evo WRC (Evo 7 base platform) is a purpose built car that was developed to take advantage of the WRC class rules, that is why there is the WRC 04 car, yes it is a LANCER EVO
Turbomaestro is correct
what do you think RS stands for UFO

exactly. This whole thread is gay.


and over a faggety looking mud flap. UFO needs to look at himself before he calls anyone any names.

and samdriver is gay too, since he's getting all that shlt off the internet at some sight and claim it to be his own knowledge.

I'm done with this gay thread. You are all gay for thinking that this mud flap makes your car a rally car, and when I say a rally car, I mean the engine, suspension, everything and not just the look of the car.

booooo

URA retard man. You need to do some research and see how much in engine mods are allowed for all rally classes besides the open class.

Sorry Turbomaestro, just backing you up

Sorry Turbomaestro I couldn't get your Quoto to come up with your name beside it (my bad)

But to Plokivos
Who cares? don't like the heat get out of the kitchen
as far as the Info, Yes I did get the info from the Internet, Unlike some people I research stuff before I say BS and embarrase myself, the info you see is correct, I am getting a point accross (I am right) and if you must know the Info I got from right under your nose, at good old evolutionm.net, I never once claimed it as my knowledge, but I do read stuff to get my facts right in an arguement, so screw youself, that is also something that UFO needs to do once in a while, "research"

and Plokivos if you think this thread is Gay then you need to look at who started spouting the BS, (YOURSELF) everyone was happy talking about Mudflaps until your sorry *** came along.

And no body said they wanted to make their cars into rally cars with those mud
flaps, all everyone wants to do is protect their paintwork from stone chips but being as the EVO is Rally based then why not have Rally STYLE mudflaps

IDIOT, i'm done

I'm interested in a set... I live in PA, which has the ****tiest roads in the nation, maybe the world... and they're always patching holes here and there, tearing off asphalt here and there, and all i hear are those horrible noises of junk hitting the side skirts and stuff... plus, i get to deal with salt and cynders in the winter to add insult to injury... but, i also have some nice and flat silts here too... I'm down with a set...

Congrats, you can use Google. RS stands for Rallye Sport. Evo is called because of the different versions that were entered in class A. The current WRC, again, is not an Evo, it's a Lancer. Go look at the scoreboard for Argentina and tell me if it's listed as a Lancer on an Evo.

Oh, what's this? A profile for the Lancer WRC car? http://www.wrc.com/Profile.aspx?CA_I...rue&lang=en_GB

Oh, what's this? Another profile by Mitsubishi? http://www.mitsubishi-motors.com/mot...rc/lancer.html

Please, don't tell me to do research when you're talking out of your ***. I'm not some kid who has been watching WRC on Speed Channel for a few years.

Ufo

Cause it is a Mitsubishi LANCER EVOLUTION
Is it not a Lancer?
YES IT IS
Is it not another version of the Lancer?
YES IT IS SO I GUESS THAT MAKES IT AN EVO THEN, (T.W.A.T.)
Just cause they don't list it as an EVO, doesn't mean it isn't an EVO,
What is the reason WHY they don't list it as an EVO in the WRC?
You ever think that it could be, because there are other car manufactures also calling their cars EVO's, cause after all their cars also fall into that category, it is a newer model of the previous one so they have the right to call their cars EVO's too
Mitsubishi doesn't own the Patent on that name.
What Differnece does it make anyway, if your going to call it something then lets call it what it is, Mitsubishi Lancer EVO or better still lets call it the Mitsubishi Cedia EVO, or even better lets call it the Mitsubishi Mirage EVO, or what about the Carissma EVO.
They are all the same car, just different parts of the world
I mean after all it could be confused with the Lancia Delta Integrali EVO 1 or Maybe the EVO 2
Lancer, Evo, Lancer, Evo, Lancer, Evo, Lets just call it the LANCER EVOLUTION.
before you start crying
otherwise you might get confused when they release the COLT EVOLUTION, which one do you call the EVO then.
Big F@cking deal
It is obvious your head is so far up your english ****, that it is hilarious.
And who said anything about some kid watching the WRC on Speed, I certainly hope your not refering to me, Cause I have watched Rallying since I was 7, I now happen to be 30, and now I have to stoop to your immature level.


Once again I have to apologise to the rest of you guys here who were talking about Mudflaps
the Minority has once again spoiled a good thread, You can all see the level some idiots will go to.
