My first track day with X
My first track day with the new Evo X, it was my best track day yet. I had the 2004 gsr Evo 8, that is a great car and missed but the new X is alot more fun at the raceway. I ran at Buttonwillow raceway #13 cw. It is pure addiction let me tell you. The car tends not to understeer like the 8 did, it really rotates the *** end around like a rear drive car, but if you lose it say at 100mph let there be no worry S-AWD is there to help. I love being able to run down 911 turbos, Ford-GTs, M3s, STIs, Vettes, and pretty much what ever else is in the way.

Add me to the list of people that wishes could take their X to the track! Not afraid, but don't have the money to spend on tires after each day.
How you like the coilovers OP? Been hearing a lot of good things about them. Nice car!

I love the KWs streets, not to harsh for city driving. Robi Spec sets them up real nice. You can get a few track days with the same tires if you drive real smooth. I still have about 6/10 left on mine. (factory advans) they stick real good lap after lap unlike the falken 615s, they feel good for 1 or 2 laps then you loose alot of grip.

The hot weather had no effect on my car it was about 92 for the high. And I shift @ 8K rpm my new redline. I put some redline waterwetter in the cooling system hell it's only 10 bucks, and it works.
