Seriously tho concept, If they dont have any respect for an Evo then they probably have never been to the track. No true enthusiast would say something like that unless you said/did something to deserve it.
No I didn't do anything haha just showed up so when's the next sonic meet

Glad to hear you got the transmission out to Shep, Brant. I hope it all goes well for you. Get it back soon so we can maybe make that last track day in Oct.

Said it would take about a couple weeks. Probably won't have the 5spd for the track day. The 6spd still has plenty of life left in it.

Trevor and I talked about the 6spd upgrade. Sounded like they were considering only making the gears with the new final drive which would put the price around $3k before any other part upgrade/replacement/installation. So figure around $5k. haha No thanks.

The transmission would be worth more than the motor most put in their cars .

Mosport is all that it's cracked up to-very very fast track with the Evo hitting the ~140 mark on the backstetch-fastest I've ever gone in the car. Lots of elevation changes, blind apexes, big fast 100+ sweepers...all with armco and concrete staring you in the face

The neatest thing was the driver of the Sierra-Sierra Enterprise Evo 8 Time Attack car, Dave Empringham, spent some time with me in the car to show me his line around the track. Dave grew up at Mosport and was a huge help (and a real nice guy). It was neat having him drive my car...different league to say the least!

Kudo's to Mike as Dave thought the car was set up really well

2 more days of fun at Mosport then 5 days at Watkins Glen (2-PCA, 3 NASA races n ST-2) and call it a season

Dan, have fun Patrick! I forsee some great things from from the pgh evo's here in the future.

I've already told Mike that he should have National champion evo mech. as a new title.
That should come with a raise. And he is going to have a hand in many other great cars from the area.
