Robispec evo wins RL time attack - street tire class

Updated with new pics!!





If I remember the results correctly...

Me / Robispec - Street Tire - overall class winner - 1:59:76
Billy Johnston / Factor X NSX - modified - overall class winner - 1:55:01
Tanner Foust / JIC Silvia - Unlimitied - overall class winner - 1:51:xx

Robi is the man.... without him and Charlie I dont think I could have broken 2 minutes at BUttonwillow 13cw, big ups. Cold track, street tires were loose.. it was fun. Way more of a technical track than I expected.

& Factor X team pulled off a truly amazing feat. Blown motor early Sat am., trailred back to Vegas that day, replaced blown engine, dynoed it, trailered back and took over all class win!!

EVO INCAR VID HERE!!
(warmup & hotlap)

Really good work nils...especially on street tires! Great job.
Have you ever posted your set-p, both suspension and power? What are you running for power? Stock turbo? What is your WHP? You car always seems blazing fast in the vids...would you have been classed TTU for TT with NASA last year?

Nils,

Excellent job, as always!! Mostly I want to say THANK YOU FOR RUNNING OUR STICKER AND PARTS ON YOUR EVO. I really-really appreciate seeing our decal on the car and it will surely be remembered, again, the next time you need help our parts. THANK YOU.

Regarding my earlier question Nils, I found your mod list, and you would be DEEP into TTU...just curious. Again, great Job. you and Robi have worked very well together to come up with a car that works for you, and that you can drive everyday to boot. Quite an accomplishment.

thx for all the positive feedback guys!!

JRB_EVO - sorry due to bandwidth I wont be posting a downloadable version.

Percywork - yeah.. DMS 50mm's, Buschur stg 4, TTU territory... BUT.... pretty much full interior car that drove to and from the track.. still on stock block, head, ecu & clutch

SS RX7 r2 - Not shaved, need to have them last for lil while.... too broke right now to be shaving off precious rubber.

David B - Hey, thx mang... I really appreciate that comment man. I also appreciate your support for this last season, it mos' def' helped me go quicker!
