Haha nice pony. Did it add 1 horsepower.

Looks like 18" off the ground. Btw, your takata harness. Why didnt you wrap it around the rollbar? Wont that thing stretch in a accident.

And there I was trying to put as much rubber has I could under the car when all I had to do was bicycle my way around the track. Good to know.

I think we officially have a new best EVO two wheel pic!




BTW Ryan WON first place in the modified Class this weekend overall!

P.S: Here is Ryan's co driver for the event....clearly securing his take on sanity. AMS couldn't be happier to have him on board

Some say he has a secret crush on my little pony, others say his real name is Ryan Gates, But we just call him the STIG!

People often talk about driving in a fractional sense, "oh i only drive about 6/10 on the street" or "it only sees 10/10 on track days"....

I think that this is what 10/10 looks like, and i dont think any of us reach this point often, if ever lol....

Having gone for a ride with Ryan at about 7/10's I can say safely he is one HELL of a driver.

10/10ths is pushing the car to the limits with all 4 tires still on the ground.

So I would give it 11/10ths personally since not all drivers can push the limits like that and STILL be fast while keeping the car pointed the right direction.
