Last time a factory EVO was entered in the WRC was 2005, it didn't do
all that well. Which rally was the win in Bob, or was it a win?




Uh, Earth to Marty...come in Marty! Do you read?

The Evo X is new. It has nothing to do with earlier cars. New engine,
suspension, tranny and sheet metal.

Here's a clip:
Last weekend Japanese Mitsubishi driver Fumio Nutahara gave the
new Lancer Evolution X its first win,dominating the Kuma Kogen
Rally,one of the rounds of the Japanese Rally Championship. This
victory is significant as the Lancer is still not yet fully developed
and it was competing against Mitsus arch rivals,the Subaru STis.
