Cyber EVO-LUTION

Posted on by

World Time Attack is on my mind. Excited to see if the Cyber Evo can retain the title of fastest time attack car in the world. Other blogs and online news sources have been posting images and information on some of the contenders and I have been reading it all. It looks like the competition will be fierce this year.

Personally I have to cheer for the Cyber EVO. Besides the fact that it runs TEIN coilovers it has so much history. I can remember watching Option video of Nomuken visiting Dr. Takizawa’s office to check out the car. At the time and still now, I think it is awesome that a privateer can compete against manufacturers, well-known tuners and race teams.

Here are some pics I found of the car over the years. You can see the EVOLUTION of the car especially in the aero department.

2008 – From the C-West aero to full Voltex

2009 – More development

2010 – At WTAC

2011 – Testing at Fuji in preparation for WATC 2011.

In my book the Cyber EVO is still the best looking Time Attack EVO of all time.

However the technical advancements in the competitors is amazing. Sierra Sierra has made improvements throughout the car which Eric Hsu explains on MotoIQ. There are new cars from Australia with some CRAZY aero mods as well.

I look forward to seeing all the event coverage.

GO CYBER EVO !!!!!!!

This past weekend was the World Time Attack Challenge held at the Eastern Creek Raceway in Australia. Although this event was new to my ears, it is unquestionably not new to the racing industry with many of the industries top manufactures and drivers present.

The car that really caught our attention was the world famous TEIN sponsored Mitsubishi Cyber Evo 9 driven by Mr. Eiji “Tarzan” Yamada. The Cyber Evo currently uses a custom valved, Super Racing coilover kit and previously used our HT kit.

The Cyber Evo took home first overall with a lap time of 1:30.5870 (0:01.2970 seconds faster than 2nd place).
