Awesome work by the twinky mitsu!

What I want to know is how it is driven to and from the track without a radiator :D

i havent looked at the link yet, but it would be john shepards super quick mitsu talon.

it used to run in NHRA sport compact class PRO STREET against the titan supra. but he decided to take it up a notch and is running slicks now and a bit of weight reduction. its still a manual box and he uses the clutch to change gears unlike some people here in australia

oh forgot to add, he seems to now run only in puerto rico, they mainly just match race.

if your into drag racing check out agracingphoto website, or the hardcore pr site, theres heaps of awesome stuff on there.

It reads like a Spanish -> English translation but:

" The man behind all that is John Shepherd the same that years ago intimidate the Street tire class some years ago, but like always every true racer have the same trouble in satisfying themselves and John have that problem too. Because of that he are in continues changes looking to beat himself every single time gets on the track. Other good things in this project are the determination and perseverance that have John with the same car and how he always fined new things to get the car faster and stronger especially in the drive train the weak link in every AWD except this one. Shepherd make himself the best technician Mitsubishi Trans. in US maybe World Wide and the 7.97 @ 179 speak for him. "

Touchy, touchy! OK, I get it now. A race car ran a high 7, cool.

No, a 2500lb, street driven 4 cylinder car ran a high 7.

FFS, it has a manually shifted box - I thought you would've pulled the end off one by now, Kenny?

:D

    • I'm aware that you can sink endless amounts of money into an engine. I don't want that kind of engie though. My power goal is 500, maybe 600hp at the max. I can get by with the nearly stock engine that I have now for that purpose and if it does need a rebuild at some point I would choose longer lasting components instead of the most ridiculously hp-rated ones. And do all the essentials of course.

    • I remember a Wheels mag article from, I dunno when....late 80s, early 90s, or something, about a BMW engine which was claimed to be able to produce cleaner tailpipe emissions than the air it was typically breathing in on Autobahns, city streets, etc etc, in a lot of the really filthy (at the time) Euro and US cities.. All courtesy of the engine management and the plentitude of cats they had on it, of course. Classic marketing spin, naturally, because you sure as shit can't breathe what's coming out the back. But whatever.
