Turbotrix in PR again!

We could detune our car and run 10.5's all day with you without a problem but that's no fun. We want the fastest EVO and that's what we have right now.
I've been hearing for the last 12 months how you were going to beat us but you're still not close. What's the problem? Remember how you made fun of us for getting a cage back in the day? Don't you have one now? Remember how you called our car a trailer queen? I remember seeing you trailer your car to the track countless times last season. You even pulled the back seats and went to a fuel cell...something we would never do. Face it, you're doing your best to copy our car with little sucess. Too little, too late. Give it up Al, go back to Subys.

Your car on the other hand seemed to blow up just about every time you raced it, you never qualified for any events and failed to have any success what so ever racing the car with the sole expecption of the IDRC race you won in which I think 3 or 4 people were in your class
BTW - runing fast does not mean you have to blow up engines
For example Sean Ivey who won just about every race around here this year - including two NHRA Wallies in races you guys could not even qualify for - did not break or blow up his car ONE time the entire season
You guys are only 3 mph and 7/10ths of a second faster than my car and I run a street car with no NOS and radial tires
Next year things will be different
I would be welome to race you guys heads up and donate all proceeds of admission to a godo charitable cause.

We only entered one IDRC race this year and we won it. It doesn't seem to matter to sponsors how fast a 1G runs or how many races you win...it's old news. Just look at Shepherd. If he can't get a full sponsor with a 1G, no one can. I'm sure you know that the EVO is not a 1G and it's not the same race car when modded. We push the hell out of it and will continue to do so. When something brakes we fix it and continue to go faster in the process. As far as us being 7/10ths faster...that's huge at the level we're running. How long did it take you to gain 7/10ths? We didn't build the car to win races. We built it for worldwide attention and that's what we're getting. California, SEMA, PR, magazines.....do the math. I don't need to spend a weekend at the track to try to win a crappy trophy and a few hundred bucks. As long as we're on top the calls keep coming in. We've been slacking on pushing it lately because no one has come close to our time. I'm sure someone will soon but I doubt it will be you, sorry. Stay away from the NOS and keep running your tires and you'll be stuck where you are. Maybe not, prove me wrong. You have yet to do that so far...

Al ..
get real , our car ran 10.5 3rd pass ever. You cant even beat that , 4 turbo's later, axles , drivetrain, every tuner in the county ect ect ... Your a bag of wind .. my friend. John sheppard ran 8.7 last yr all yr on the same motor, AEM ran 6's all last yr on the same motor, what does that mean ????? You didnt run all last yr on the same motor, dont kid yourself. I think your what on motor # 4 ? just last season. If your car ran fast i'd have to enterain your comments, but it doesnt , not even close.... I could really car less what sean ivy did nor anyone else for that matter , i would concern yourself with trying to get your car out of its own way i hope someone can help you do that ( other then yourself ) but i dont thing there is anyone else left in the country who hasnt tuned it ..

Listen, I would respectfully request of the 2 parties that I not be involved, I know both and really think it is unfair to put me in such a postition, I have called both to request this.

Its funny Al. At the IDRC event that we went to you were there with your car too. You talk about how there was only a three car field our class. But it was an all 9 second field. There were also only three cars in your class. Your 11 second car, a 12 second DSM, and 13 second EVO. Must have been real nerve racking having to beat that 12 second car in the finals huh? 
Any other real event you went to this year you got smacked around by Sean and I.

What are your great racing acomplishments Mark?
BTW - do you guys want to race me or is this all just hot air - after all, every time youi guys made ity to any shootout last year your car was usually back in the trailer and I never had a chance to race you guys yet.

We are making an al - vs turbotrix class at our shootout this yr. Hopefully this yr your motor stays together and all trailor tires stay in tact... Oh, did i forget the axles and rears,, them too. Dont worry al, you cant weasel out of that class to race 12 sec cars. I'll make sure we have a nice plastic trophy for second place, in case your lost thats you al... We'll i guess you'd be the number one loser ,, not bad

Al,
Why don't you stop racing your customers at the East Coast Mitsubishi Day and just race us. However you want to do it, best of 3, best of 5, whatever. Just no bracket racing.

What is sad is that you can't even run what my Integra and civic Del Sol ran. My Honda only was:
B20 Block (2.0L from a CRV suv)
8.5:1 JE Pistons (stock 84mm Bore)
Eagle Rods
ARP Head Studs
Darton Sleeves
JG Built (Ported & Polished) B16 Head (1.6L Head from a Civic Si)
Stock cams
Ferrera Ti Valves
Ferrera Ti Valve Springs
Ferrera Ti Retainers
JG Engine Dynamics Cam Gears
RC 1000cc Injectors
Aeromotive Fuel Pump
Stock ITR Intake Manifold
Haltech EMS
GReddy Type R BOV
GReddy Profec B EBC
Turbonetics T60-1 .63 A/R Turbo
Drag III Manifold
Tial 40mm Wastegate
Spearco FMI
Prodrive Ti Axles
ITR Transmission
Stock ITR LSD
ACT 6-puck Clutch
ACT HD Pressure Plate
B&M Short Shifter
I think that was it. But it's pretty damn good considering STOCK CAMS and INTAKE MANIFOLD!
10.07 @143mph
627whp @ 38psi
Man I wish I had it back right now!
