I was driving down Half Day road on the Northshore (suburbs outside Chicago) and I could have sworn I saw a purple-ish Mistubishi Lancer Evolution on a trailer behind some kind of truck pulling it. Might have been for racing purposes because it was on a trailer. Just thought some people might be interested to hear

 

cool, thats why i carry a digital camera with me in the car, for those puposes, pics would of been ****

 

I've seen track only Lancer Evo's for sale before.

 

Yeah, **** are good.

I contemplated pulling the e-brake and doing a 180, but then I remembered my car is in Arizona and I was driving a Camry

 

I had the chance to buy an Evo about 3 years ago after my first R was totalled, It was a guy out in Indiana, White Lancer GSR Evolution 6 By the time I decided to go for it the car was sold.

 

TAD Motorsports in Lake Zurich preps cars, including the Evo and other imports not available for street use in the States, for the professional rally circuit all over the world. They do so by gutting the entire car, re-welding all the seams, etc.

You can often spot one or more Evos at their shop. Since it's located right off Half Day Road (IL 22), that's undoubtedly where the car you saw was headed to or from.

Good call Ken. Most likely you are right.

Too bad you didn't get the Evo Mike, as the young kids nowadays say, that would have been "****"

 

There was a Mirage Lancer EVO hybrid on ebay from Chi-town not too long ago. Could've been him. I can't remember what color it was though.

 

OT: At the Washington Auto Show this week, I was told by the head of East Coast Mitsu operations that the EVO will be released in 01/2003.

 

my friend's mr2 shop has a rhd evo 5 at their shop . looks awesome

 

There's a guy in CT that races at limerock park that has one. Not sure what year it is but I think I saw it in the Dupont reg.

 

No offense, but I need actual confirmation before I get too excited.
