I hope I don't clutter your post with a bunch of random stuff but.........here I go!

First, the Ricer is a true EVO industry icon. Emery and Shawna, you two are some of my favorite people I've ever been associated with and class acts. I LOVED seeing you rip off those 8 second times run after run in the Ricer. I think you made more 8 second runs consistently than anyone else has.

As I sat back and watched it I was cheering for you to keep going faster. I also have to admit, that I'm not that sad to see it end. It such a crazy amount of work and money to run at that level, for us it was frustrating as hell too as trying to run the same insane speeds over and over was just impossible between trying to get the car to hook up and shift etc.

I'm really excited to see this new project! I'm on board for whatever you want to do and in anyway I can help.

I have to throw this out there though............Emery, I expect to see you dodging some cones again at the 20th Annual with this project! A true street EVO has to turn AND go in a straight line!! It's going to be a battle!!

Good luck!

Haha. You and your cones. lol. I am sure I will be out there with you in max effort this year if I don't get motion sickness from it.

You are one of the best guys in this business to be associated with and its great being a part of the same team. I really do appreciate all the help you have given us over the past few years and am happy to be able to call you my friend.

As far as ricer and running 8's goes, It was fun but extremely scary. Heading for a wall at 140 mph tends to give the good ole star fish a work out and to be honest, I'm just not to interested in it anymore. We may try it out again someday but at this point its time for something that I can enjoy everyday.

Not sure yet.


I like the TC105n's but cant find any good looking pics of them on cars. In all the pics I have seen they just do not look right on an Evo. Having a hard time with the wheel thing right now.

very true, they look great on alot of cars but its hard to find them on an evo...when i inquired about these they offered me a deal on them if id post pics with them on my evo (i want the exact size in black)
on a second note the wheels on it now look good also and are pretty light or you could run 9 bbs or rpf01 but alot of people are going this route now this is why i like the wedssport
just my .02

I really like the 17X9 rpf-1 too but I feel like its not worth it rolling the fenders.
