Yeah, I saw skunk2 Evo and didn't even know they made parts for our cars. That's like Mugen making something for Evo's. But they again... I guess I'm not in the know. :(

found this on streetfire.net Plus you can read all about the skunk2 evo tuned by Alfred in the new modified mag. Looked like it was gonna be a hands down win for them but fueling problems cut 'em short...

Nice find Matt, LOL at the commentary by Dr. Charles.

As the article says, the Skunk2 evo had a significant lead going into the last challenge (Time Attack). Fuel problems caused the DNF.

What good is a lead if you cant finish? The first step to winning is finishing. Skunk needs to stick to Hondas.

They had a stellar car. And the comment above is like saying , tuning tech should just stick to Evo's. When we all know they can make any car a performer. Having Skunk mess with Evo's can be a good thing, because they have a differant perspective than most Evo guys do...

be on the watch out for a.k.a "Gunner"...!

In a black and white world with no variables this would be a true statement. Unfortunately we do not live in such a world

Exactly. They went home empty handed.

That evo is damn fast. Skunk2 has done a great job with it. They shouldn't stick to just hondas. The skunk evo was overall champion and class champion by 7 points going into the time attack. All it had to do was finish within 6 seconds of the GST Subie's best time attack lap.
