I did have someone make an offer on the car late last year. I thought it was a good price, and allowed me to get into something newer. But it never happened. Realistically, my car isn't worth much. But I'm not willing to sell it for what the market price would be.

I think I can honestly say that I will never sell my EVO. Not only does it hold a lot of sentimental value because its the first car I ever bought brand new, but its just a bad a$$ car all together. I don't know of anything I could replace it with around the same $$.

I don't I could get enough money for mine that would make me even consider selling it. Although, when i was at D Ambrosio last week they did a 2011 in PB with the aero kit, and I must say, its a pretty sharp looking car.

I think you can run whatever. I've never had the drag strip tech guys take a second look at the tires on my car.

I was thinking HPDE. My ps2's have enough tread for several auto-x's, or maybe one track day. I am planning to buy some Z1's, but want to get the most out of my free shoes.

For atco, ill just run the blizzacks.

I don't that the outer edges would hold up for 4 or 5 30min sessions... Maybe, you better be running mad camber though. The fronts take a lot of abuse during a track day.

I would run them till the cords show. as long as its not raining you'll be fine. The only thing most org's don't like when it comes to tires is when novices run slicks. that's usually a big no-no.
