Paul and the other race tech oÀ"
Las Vegas results are up.
Trial #1 - 5:40.610 5th Place
Trial #2 - 5:41.624 5th Place
Don't know if they got the airfoil working for the rear spoiler or not. Good job guys. At least you didn't drop a position. Overall Team Vishnu went from 9th to 7th place.

Still I would like more details on the woes at the skid pad... I mean nearly last place?

Thanks to all that came out and supported, it means a lot to Shiv, Paul and the whole Evo community to have fan support

It's the start (drag style)... It'll give you a good idea of how good the car sounds though!

I'll try to edit some more clips tonight and get them up... I tried to get a good view of the whole track (on top of the grandstands), but it turns out that I was too far to get any "spectactular" video. Something is better than nothing though, I suppose.

They beat the STI again today and should be close to overtaking them for 6th place overall after todays points are added up. We still need to win every event to tie them for in class points, thus ensuring the mid price sedan victory. The skidpad is looming and I know Paul and Shiv will make sure that our dry numbers are fantastic.
They dropped 2 events? The schedule has 4 events listed for Pueblo. 2 trials, 2 drags. http://onelapofamerica.com/History/2004/route.htm
With the drags they had potential to accumulate some points.
