Not liking this version...probably old news for some of you.

Check out their FB page...to see build and changes

 

sorry will try to fix pics...

excuse if its a repost, Ive been gone for a long time

 

well that's one heck of a splitter.

 

Those look like last year's pictures....a little late.

 

Well they knew they were coming up against project nemo. They needed to make a big play to try and maximize downforce. Bad news for them is they blew the motor, but even without the blown motor they wouldn't have gotten close. Nemo has way more professional aero and chassis development, not to mention huge $$$ that easily eclipses the cyber evo's total investment since its appearance on the scene in a fresh build.

And yes these pictures are from WTAC 2012

 

holy #snowplow

 

Unfortunately the Cyber Evo really has no chance against Nemo even with the new ruleset. It's a basically stock body with light weight and a truly mental driver with relatively little invested compared to the $$$ tube frame, full carbon Nemo. Running very low boost last year Nemo completely crapped on every other entry, and is supposed to be on kill mode this year.

The only car I see having a shot against Nemo is the Tilton Interiors car if Tilton can keep the motor from blowing up or possibly Under Susuki's S15.

 

Can't wait to see Nemo run again this year. Last year being a 'shakedown' it's going to be rediculuous this year.

 

I'm late to the party but that's some amazing aero.

 

Saw videos of the nemo car... Has some crazy aero too. Gigantic canards. I guess the theme nowadays is go big aero or go home ;p

 

Is it me or the nemo evo has paddle shifts vs cyber evo standard shift?

 

Yes, Nemo's WTAC Lancer Evolution IX uses a 6-speed sequential gearbox.

 

I am friends with Andrew Brilliant on fb, simply because time to time he posts photos of Nemo, p.s. did everyone read his speedhunters interview about aero?

 

The Tilton Interiors car has 0 chance. NEMO didn't even have its own motor last year. They blew theirs up in testing and borrowed a motor. They were running less than 550whp at WTAC 2012 if I remember correctly. The car is capable of 3g's in corners. Nothing else is getting close unless they start from scratch, do a similar build to the limit of the rules including getting a professional aerodynamicist, and have a nearly unlimited budget.

Not to nit-pick but it started life as an Evo VII, not IX

 

I tend to agree SDevo. The cars are in totally different leagues. I was more impressed that Tilton was as close as it was last year, but if Nemo is running the kind of power they are hinting at this season with their aero package and weight, its going to be another slaughter just like the year before. They are built to the absolute limit of the rules, have one of the best aero guys out there, and apparently like you say, an unlimited budget.
