I've been big into autocross that past two years, but I plan on doing more HPDE style events next summer. And as you of all people can now attest to, the EVO is a much better starting point than a DSM when it comes to road racing.

On a side note, I just noticed one of your threads.. are planning on selling the EVO now too?
ha, yes, however i only am selling the VIII for a IX. I love the evo platform and the 4 doors!

I'll be back in the DSM game in another year or two (but still keep the evo). I still want to built a full race dsm and race it wheel to wheel.

Here's my old setup as of last year. The reason I bought my evo was to daily drive it, but now I want to mod the evo as well

Also owned another talon before this one. Pictures I took when I was selling the shell after parting it out. Sold it shortly after getting the evo. Had the car for almost 5 years and dumped a lot of money into it. Kinda regretting selling it.
