San Diego Evo's
got it off a used japanese owner(look around the 40's). he upgraded to a lotus exige or elise something like that. price was 23,500. yeah take good care of it, wash it weekly and wax'd, also clay bar it last week. when i purchase it i was at 19,916 miles now 24,xxx, oil change, maunal trans fluid change, syn oil filter change, all done at ez lube. It was a little costy, but the next oil change i will do it myself.
oh btw, when i took it to ez lube those guy say there use to be a japanese owner who take his car in here, then i told him yeah, that car is now mine. after that he told me, "he let us beat the **** out of it" i was pretty upset but nothing i can do. But that was when it was stock.

Anyway, I ran 8.282 at 83 mph the one time I ran at the Q. 1.799 60' time.
I was granny shifting the car, and I'm sure the car could do a little better, but I'm not primarily a drag racer -- mainly an autocrosser and was just interested in how the car would do in an 1/8 mile.
BTW, my car also has a Quaife front LSD, ACT race clutch, and Toyo RA-1 tires.

I guarantee everyone will have a blast. I'm not sure on the pricing since its been a LONG time since I've been, but I think its around 40 buxs or so. A lot of the regulars there are really cool and will let you ride shotgun with them around the course which can be a lot of fun.

never knew that, but thanks for the heads up, going to do all the oil change and etc.. myself from now on, and i didnt even trust them with my car. i was watching my car at ez lube, making sure there going to do the stuff i payed for and he was going to put 10w40 or something else but i told them to just do the 10w30 cause that what my manual says.
