witnessing the 9 second mr run

congratulations to the autoplus team who bagged the best time of the day in a lancer evo 8 mr 9.887 @ 141.2 held at the south reclamation area in cebu city just this day. i was able to sneak to the pits and took quick shots of some of the cars until i was caught at unauthorized area. got to speak to the owner named rommel and said the evo has more than 700 wheelhorsepower which is the result of a 2.2 liter jun engine! im back in the motherland for another 2 weeks, and im getting an evo 6 and bring it to autoplus ! again congratulations to rommel's evo mr for bagging the best time but too bad got disqualified for the quick 8 due to lack of rollbars. some pics i took

first time to see an evo 7


the autoplus evo 8 that made it to 9.887. this area was off limits but i got to sneak in

Congrats to Autoplus again Is it just me or is Autoplus one of the best tuning companies for the EVO in the WORLD!?!? The Philippines is definitely representing the EVO nation proudly. Man I wish Autoplus was in the states.

Hi! I never knew you posted this in advance. Thanks for watching and for your support. I am coming out with a website that will feature the evo and its specs. we have a video of the 9sec run together with pics, it will be downloadable on the site too! I dont think we will still be boosting the power of the evo since 715whp is still good enough on the streets. Thanks for the support and I hope to see you soon at Autoplus with your evo 6. Just FYI, I wasnt the one who drove the car, it was the official Autoplus driver Rick Wee who brought my car to the 9s.
