Where are the track oriented Evo X's?
Where are the track oriented Evo X's?
Greetings!
I moved from Brazil to US 2 years ago and started going to track days last December. First one was Laguna Seca with a fairly stock S2000. Then I did big willow with the S2k and decided to buy an Evo X. I've had 2 Evo X's in Brazil and used to take them to the track and they were pretty fast.
Here in the US I was surprised to realize the Evos are not that popular on track days. I have been to big willow, streets of willow and laguna seca with my X and I only saw 1 Evo X and 1 IX. It seems S2000's, Miatas, BMWs and Camaros are much more popular.
Anyways, I plan to keep modifying mine and it would be nice to share some experience with other track addicts around here.
My mods so far are:
All bolt-ons such as full exhaust, IC, IC pipes and intake
Ohlins coilovers
Cobb rear sway bar
Raybestos ST43 pads, ss lines, motul rbf600 and stoptech slotted rotors.
Next step is WL FSB, anti roll, antilift and bushings.
My lap times so far (first and only time with the Evo on these tracks)
Big willow: 1.46
Streets of willow: 1.28
Laguna Seca: 1.44
Cheers
