Smile Gates311: One Year Anniversary!

On Valentine's Day in 2008, I picked up my Evo X. Just hit me today that it's already been one year with the car....flewwww by! Anyways, just a few of my favorite photos to commemorate the occasion. Thanks to everyone that has supported the car throughout the year, I appreciate all of the time and effort. This season should be exciting, looking forward to continue proving the Evo X's worth

Enjoy!

The night I brought it home:



Soooo clean:



Stock? Weird...:



First wash:



In Salt Lake City on the way to CA for Buttonwillow:



First Time Attack with the car, stock other than KW's:





At St. Louis for anther Redline T/A:





Finally home from about a month on the road, and checkin out wingless:



First Tune:



Engine as of May:



First AMS stickers on the car:



Girodisc install...after some great use of the stockers:



At Miller for Redline T/A:



First shot with the CE28's:



A shot from Rich at AMS:



My favorite shot of the car ever:



AMs Rainy day...sooooo much fun:



At NASA Natl's (TT-A Natl. Champion):



Cool pic before heading to CA:



Super Lap Battle:









FP Red!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Modified Mag pic with Nitto Engineers:



And as of this morning...a little teaser. With MATCHING decals, I think it would look better, but still contemplating painting them...18x10.5 +15 TE37's:



And some work going on.....:



Looking forward to next year, thanks for looking! Hope you're all enjoying your Evo X's as much as I am...such a fun car.

Ryan

I know...with decals to match it might be better, but I love how the black looks on OB so I'll probably end up painting them.

don't you dare paint them! those will make you stick out on the track and will give spectators a reason to watch.... "There goes the car with the green wheels again".....

Lets see what it looks like with the new decals before you go and paint a very expensive set of wheels lol

im sure you are very excited to get this thing ready for 09. we are all waiting to see what you can do in the seat of a well prepaired X im sure your results well be much better as the prep of the car get better and better.

I feel A LOT of mouths were shut when a near stock X piloted by yourself was rocketing around (MUCH more prepaired cars).




all this makes me miss racing... damn economy. I miss the good old 944 cup series.
