We learned a lot from campaigning our old time attack car. It won just about every race it entered and broke track records all over the country. We want to outdo ourselves this time around. Using what we have learned about time attack racing we are tackling this car with a full head of steam. No Stone will be left unturned. In this thread I will start posting pictures of our EVO X as she is being torn down and rebuilt.

We will be competing at the Super Lab battle finals with the car on November 12th and then over the winter getting even more crazy with the build to compete as an unlimited time attack car for the entire 2009 Redline and Super Lap Battle time attack series'

On with the pictures!!!

Here was day one and two. This was literally the Monday after the car got back from the Fireball Run!

This day was all about tearing out unnecessary weight and finding new ways to replace heavy components with lighter custom ones.









Whats that??? Could it be that Ivan made an AC removal kit??????
