**Touge Factory / STANCE Time attack Evo 8**
Hey Guys...
Just wanted to share with you guys some pictures from last weekend from Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
We competed in Super Modified AWD piloted by Trent Choi.
During practice sessions, we were running consistently between 1:40's and 1:41's on low boost and with tires we have been testing with the week prior.
Car ran great and with Hankook assisting us with dialing in the tire pressure, car was getting even faster.
Having a successful practice day... we prepared for sunday.
Swapped to fresh set of Hankook C91 tires and TF crew started doing a once over on the car before hitting the track on sunday.
Sunday - car went out and the rear diff started acting up.
guys at FX motorsports were kind enough to allow us to borrow a diff from them.
swapped rear diffs, and did a once over again. All looked good.
Car was back on the track, before we could even get in a hot lap, Trent felt / heard something from the rear, and pulled off immediately.
One of the rear hubs split in half. This made us call it a day.
Car is equipped with custom valved STANCE 3-way SS-D coilvoers
Car was running Hankook C91 Racing Slicks
Car was stopping on Brembo Monoblock 8 titanium piston brakes up front and monoblock 4 titanium piston rear brakes with CL Brake pads RC8 - custom for these calipers. (we will have 6 piston brembo caliper pads availble soon by CL BRAKES)
Aero by TFworks - Full carbon + Kevlar flat bottom
Car was making about 650whp on low boost.
During build process....
From this past weekend...
thanks guys!!!!

Look at the FIFTH picture down...
do you see the steel pipe coming out on the side of the car?
that's how we lift the car. We fabbed up a jig on the car's chassis so that we can slide that pipe in on all four corners and use a jack to lift.

I want to thank the TF crew who worked very hard at Las Vegas Motor Speedway and to get me out to the Las Vegas RTA event. This was actually the first real testing we could do on the car. The previous time we went out to the track, we did a few shakedown runs and were just dialing in the brake bias for the new Brembo Race setup and Tilton pedal assembly on the car.
I want to thank all my other sponsors who have helped out to make this all possible. Stance suspension-Touge Factory/TFworks-Tensor Group-Forced Performance-Teamtech-CL brakes. I also want to thank Mike from Factor X for tuning the car properly.
Thanks to Nils who let me use his rear differential off his personal car in hopes of trying to get the car back on the track for the last timed session.

Car looked great last weekend! Always good to see Trent and the guys! Now we're coming to your neck of the woods in 6 weeks! AutoBahn Country Club. The car should be formidable at that track for sure!
I'll be giving you guys a call next week to go over the AutoBahn event, and start working together to get as many EvoM folks out to the event as possible!
