Future Plans:

The future of my Evo IX is undecided. Right now its life is lived primarily at the track. I am a member of NASA AZ and I compete in TA and TT. As a driver / racer the primary focus is to be faster around the track to get the lowest possible lap time, however this comes at a cost. As you will see below my Evo IX is in fantastic condition and it pains me abuse it at the track. Part of me says "who cares, this is what the car was designed for" and I will strip the car, throw a cage in it, build the motor, full suspension, etc. in order to make it more competitive. The other part of me says "have fun with it on the street and keep it clean, as there aren't too many really clean Evo's left in this world" and at this point I would consider picking up an older, higher mileage, beat up Evo to transform into my TA / TT track monster, this way I wouldn't feel so bad about killing mine. So without further ado, here is my 2006 Evo IX SE
