i think its awesome for him to donate parts from his personal car to the public. im sure he is glad that his car is keeping other evo's on the road as well lol. he is an upstanding guy for sure. any other shop would not donate parts from their cars for a customer for anything even if the car wasnt in track duty anymore.

 

I certainly applaud Kevin and Evo D shop. I think we all hear nothing but the best about his shop. But for the record Cobb has done this exact same thing for me personally and I know of at least one other as well.


I truly would like to see more friendship between shops customers and realize we are all part of a greater community. The really good shops are in this business to make money for sure but just as much for the love of cars

 

Thanks Tom, I do agree. Dallas has some of the best shops in the nation right here at our doorstep. Friendliness will do nothing but grow that community for all!

 

don't tell that to ole' yeller! she just thinks shes getting a makeover a REALLY long one

 

Lol that's true. At least I got rid of most of the spiders

 

Thanks to Richard, Josh, and Kevin. The car feels great!! All the notchyness is gone out of my shifter too. We'll see how she does at the next autox if the heat isn't ridiculous.

 

What did you have done?

 

I did the 30k mile service, Whiteline front and rear sway bars, ACT 6puck clutch, and the AMS CMC ring. The car feels really planted now. I'm going to test the sways a little more after work today, but so far I'm impressed. The 6puck is a little different but it still needs to break in. So far I really like it too.

 

Kevin has never worked on my car however he has treated me like a true friend and a valued customer every time I've called, texted or came by the shop. Last night after a mishap on my part I found myself needing a part for my car and he had one and said come on over this being at 930pm not only did I get the part I needed also at an extremely fair price to boot. He and his shop are a true asset to our community

 

Werd

 

Glad you got it, Andrew, and awesome you were able to get it so quickly and cheaply!

 

Just wanted to say thanks again. I'm glad you guys suggested the 6puck and setting the sways to medium. The car is perfect!!!

Jeremy Ault (EvoSomeday) and I co-drove and put everything to the test at BMW's autox today. I think we did well representing NTEC and pulled off a respectable 1st and 2nd place wins in class Y. Jeremy in 1st and myself in 2nd by .5 seconds off Jeremy's time. He beat me in my own car again LOL!!

The morning was a little crazy with the rain, but after lunch the lot dried out and we were good to go. It has just enough understeer to keep you out of trouble, but not enough to make the car push. The car rotates nicely when you want it to, and body roll is nonexistent it seems. Launching with the 6puck took so much time off of our runs. If I remember right the person in 3rd was only .032 seconds off of my time. Without the great launching I think we would have easily been pushed to 2nd and 3rd place or even 3rd and 4th.

What sway bars do you have? I wonder if they will have the same manners for the 8/9.

 

He has Whiteline, they also make nice stuff for the 8/9's.

 

Fantastic. Thanks.
