I bought it from Mark a couple of years ago when he was alive.

I've been tracking the heck out of it, trying to get my race license. There will be some articles about it.

I have some plans in the works, but it's taking some time to put it all together. Is there something in particular you would like to see get installed and reviewed?

Looks great Ali

I was just wanting to know what you guys had done to it, parts tuning etc.... I heard it was a nice car by someone who was at VIR so I was curious.

Really? Do you know who it was? I tried to meet with each evo owner there. I may have missed one.

Here's a basic idea of what is on the car:

https://www.evolutionm.net/features/...age=projectevo


The power numbers listed on that page are off and some of the items like the wheels and tires are different (running 275 nitto nt-01 tires with project ssix wheels). I run less octane and a more conservative tune when I run the car on track. I'm still on the stock turbo.

I am taking a different direction with the car, so keep an eye out for some new articles.

He wasnt an EVO owner he was working at the track. He mentioned it because someone pointed it out to him.

Yeah John is tuning the car. He did an awesome job. It helped especially when trying to pass a c6.

Also I PM'd you back.

It's a very nicely done car. I said hello in the paddock and was in your group in the maroon Camaro (only Camaro there). I remember seeing you in front of me at one point during a session, but I can't remember anything else. So much track time with Car Guys that it's hard to remember every moment from the weekend...

Another question, how are your impressions of the NT-01's ????? I am thinking of making them my next set of tires.

I really like them. It took a good warm up lap to get them ready to go (due to the cooler weather), but after they got up to temp they worked very well. As each lap went by I would get faster and faster.

I also drove the car to and from the track with the tires on (500 miles total). I think I can get another weekend out of them before I need to order another set. For the money and the amount of performance you get with the tire, nothing else really compares. I used to use RA1's but I think I'll stick with the nitto's and see how it goes.

OK, what kind of event was it, Ali? Strip club or something? Gotta love the filter at work.
