Thumbs up Congrats Ben & Evosport, pg 32 of latest European Car
Every month, I wait for my European Car magazine and read it from cover to cover. You Evosport guys can really keep a secret. To my surprise, Mach430 appeared in the Tuned section titled "A quintessential autobahn rocket". If you haven't read it yet, check it out. Pablo did a nice write up.

Funny thing is, we took some huge burnout pics and they chose not to use them I'll have to see about getting those pics from them.

Thanks Derek!

I just went to see the European Car magazine but I did not find Ben's car (April edition). I guess that his car is in March edition. Does anyone have the pictures?

I'm working on getting it scanned, if anyone else beats me to it, please post it! The article is under the "Tuned" section on page 32 of the May issue (has a VW R32 on the cover).

Ben, I think he's asking about your car vs. Pablo's car....so, who's got quicker times at the big track? Simon/Brad vs. Pablo?

Forget who the driver is.... Pablo's M3 is about 2 seconds faster on the track than mine. He is again faster on the street, however it was only a few months ago when I surprised him by staying dead even on the side of him . Pablo by the way has over 400HP at the wheels...
