Evo 7.9 that is street legal and does 1.02's at Puke

Hmm, I wonder if this guy exaggerates much :lol:

1.02 round Puke is F'n fast, esp when you only have 400hp. I have a mate who has an Evo 9 track car that doesn't go that fast, and it has more hp and mods. A few months back there was a 700hp GT-R that was just cracking into the 1.02's.

Someone should negotiate with him - for every second slower it is than what he says take off $5k :D

If it is that quick someone should buy it - it's a bargain :D

Im playing devils advocate here :) but bhp isnt everything though is it?

I remember reading about a tracked out 318is that does the Nurbergring in just over 8mins simply because it can go flat out through the entire track.

Seems a bit too good for Puke. He's 2 secs behind Mr Delmont on his Manfeild times, but 3 secs faster at Puke, doesn't add up, I think the 1.05 is closer to the mark, still very quick.

I would reckon about a 1:05 is more realistic as in the description he say's it averages a 1:05, so maybe the 1:02 was a mess up on the stop watch.

And you sponsor him too Johno ??

No we don't. :)

I know hp isn't everything but to get to that time you need big hp down the back straight at Puke. I agree it is a fast car but there is a big difference between 1.02 and 1.05 at Puke. It is a well sorted car for something that doesn't have a full rollcage hence my apprehension at it doing 1.02. That is faster than Mr Delmont!

"(TO MUCH TO LIST IN THIS ADD!) "

Spelling a side, you're trying to sell the vehicle. The more detail the better. :|

cup holder

cigarette lighter deletion

anodised valve covers

Blue numberplate bulbs

Trademe does have a character limit for their ads, I am not sure what it is but what hes got there looks close to it (maybe its the caps lock making it look like more than it is), so it is possible he actually couldn't list everything.

Even if I really wanted that car, I wouldn't even read the ad let buy it simply due to the caps use in his ad. <_<

Must be :D

That should have all been removed by now - I would say the photos are quite old.

Haha I know Leon the owner. Add 2 seconds to that time guys. Though he has prob built this car quite well. He has owned quite a few well powered Evo's.
