Dads Evo IX race car 800BHP

Recently my dad bought a fantastic new evo. His first one with a measely 450 bph but this one is almost double the amount of BHP and is just awesome!

Heres a video of it at cadwell park... Theres a few more if you'd like to watch the ones on that account: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLVXMJtM_UM

and heres a picture of the car. More available at request.

I'm just wondering if anyone else, either themselves, parents or family have a simliar car? I'm yet to go in the passanger seat of this beauty but i'm going up to scotland soon, so should hopefully get a ride then! It also recently lost it's front bumper and splitter, it costs a nasty amount of money!

p.s this is by no means showing off - I just thought car ensthuasts would be interested!

70mph through corners? What madness! :O Do you have any external pictures? The one you posted didn't come up.

My brother has a P1 Subaru which is monstrous to be in the front seat of :P

Haha, this driver is awesome! :) That picture was supposed to be of the car, i'll try get one to show up!

awesome that, any shots of the bay? and are they advans?

That's a pretty good looking car your dad has there :P The Evo IX always seemed prettier to me. The Evo X looks too similar to the Lancer to be of any significant importance now :/

if BHP is the same as HP, that's nuts! Is it AWD?

I think they're both the same thing. Brake horsepower is the full name because the test uses a brake fixed to the engine to keep a steady RPM to make the test reliable and successful. It's a hell of a lot anyway, isn't the Bugatti Veyron something like 1,000 BHP?

That's mad fast. We have a S65 and I think it makes a little over 600 HP and that car is FAST and it's a boat.

70mph through corners at Cadwell Park is more than plenty, I wouldn't want to trash my £90k GT3 round a circuit which is known to be dangerous.

edit; ignore this. just me being a ****.
