It looks very functional on the track, but seems quite a bit too low for daily driving. I had a Do Luck replica that sat higher than that and it didn't last two months due to odd driveway angles, etc. I'm more interested in Paul's springs, coilovers, and sway bar settings... If I wasn't so broke at the moment, I would have already sent him my Vishnu Ohlins for customizing....

Note to self: bring more grapes next time...

It was a good time, track was crowded but Paul was able to put down a 1:13.78. We brought setup scales, alignment equipment, tire pyro's, and a small crew to make the most of the day. The aero bits shaved nearly two seconds from the previous day's times. His EVO was noticeably faster than everything else there: vipers, vettes, caged M3's, and every imaginable 911 including a RUF. The only faster cars were two formula spec racers and CSR mazda.

Paul definitely waits 3 seconds after seeing God, check out those brake rotors!

Summit is one of Pauls favorite tracks - maybe an east coast road trip next year

Awesome pics!!!
I am really chuckling over the first pic. The idea with such a low front splitter is not to cut the corners... so Paul leaves at least 2" or rubber on the road for the inside tire

The last pic is really wicked

I'd be up for that. VIR is on my list of places to get to next year.

From what I understand there is a couple year waiting list for VIR.... though a DSM/Mistu day/weekend there would be awesome.

Whatever happens, we need to start getting all these cars together in one place to see where we all stack up.
