**Touge Factory Time Attack Evo 8**

Hey Guys...

Just wanted to share with you guys some pictures from last weekend from Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
We competed in Super Modified AWD piloted by Trent Choi.
During practice sessions, we were running consistently between 1:40's and 1:41's on low boost and with tires we have been testing with the week prior.
Car ran great and with Hankook assisting us with dialing in the tire pressure, car was getting even faster.
Having a successful practice day... we prepared for sunday.
Swapped to fresh set of Hankook C91 tires and TF crew started doing a once over on the car before hitting the track on sunday.

Sunday - car went out and the rear diff started acting up.
guys at FX motorsports were kind enough to allow us to borrow a diff from them.
swapped rear diffs, and did a once over again. All looked good.
Car was back on the track, before we could even get in a hot lap, Trent felt / heard something from the rear, and pulled off immediately.
One of the rear hubs split in half. This made us call it a day.


Car is equipped with custom valved STANCE 3-way SS-D coilvoers
Car was running Hankook C91 Racing Slicks
Car was stopping on Brembo Monoblock 8 titanium piston brakes up front and monoblock 4 titanium piston rear brakes with CL Brake pads RC8 - custom for these calipers. (we will have 6 piston brembo caliper pads availble soon by CL BRAKES)
Aero by TFworks - Full carbon + Kevlar flat bottom
Car was making about 650whp on low boost.

During build process....



From this past weekend...










thanks guys!!!!

The car looks AMAZING!!

Unlucky that you were not able to compete as best as you wanted because of the problems you encountered, but keep your heads up, and get back out there soon and show everyone what this car is capable of!

GAAHDAAM Trent went all out on that beast! Sorry about the mishap this weekend, but looking forward to seeing what you guys can do this season. That rear diffuser btw looks even more intense than on the sierra sierra evo, did you guys put it trough the windtunnel?

You can see the huge 32 row Setrab oil cooler in picture number 1 and number 5 sitting behind the bumper.
The oil cooler was the size of a Civic radiator....
