Fortune Auto EVO - Last Photoshoot before Time Attack Transformation!!

We have been busy bee's this year!

As some of you may know we campaigned an EVO 9 last year in Redline Time Attack and NASA ST2 in the mid atlantic region. To say the least we were pretty successful securing many podiums along the way


We also posted up or demo car here a few times and made a few changes to it. But we decided last month to take the plunge and turn this demo car into a dedicated time attack street tire class car.

We will be running our off the shelf 500 series coilovers and a stock frame turbo.
This car will basically be a design exercise of how competitive you can be with good quality parts that are not necessarily expensive.

Something the average evo owner could easily put together

So no double, triple or quadruple way adjustable coilovers, 5k Aero and super expensive stroked out motor builds.

We plan on keeping it simple and make the car competitive on a good setup and driving ability.

We have on the way APR Wing, Voltex SPL Canards, C-West Front bumper, custom 5" splitter and a race gas tune along with Yokohama Advan AD08 tires among other things

One last farewell before the cars transformation before it heads out to Atlantic Motorsports in MD for setup and prep.












Here are some shots and video of the car last year

Love the wheels, are they anodized or something? I've never seen painted/PC'd wheels with that type of translucency.
