I had an opportunity earlier this week to take Quin’s EK out for a late night photo shoot. More importantly I was able to drive the thing around the quiet streets of Richmond… OODLES OF FUN!!! are the only thoughts that crossed my mind.
The Evo Garage Mugen DC5 race car has longed for this day, first time out after the upgrade to its suspension, mounts and tires. The old Öhlins came out in place for Mugen N1 coilovers. Alex race mounts were replaced with Hasport billet mounts using the super hard urethane inserts. After maxing out the capabilities of the Yokohama Advan A048, both of the DC5s are now using Hoosier R6 tires. Even though with a wonderful performance, target times were not met this month. Much anticipation will be expected from the Mugen DC5 after some fine-tuning next month.
Another Saturday afternoon, enjoying some Starbucks… sitting around, talking about cars, taking some pictures of a couple friends transportation devices.
Four months may not seem to be a long time in one’s life, but when those 4 months are spent away from home, that’s a whole different story. Thoughts of home start to cross your mind day after day, and the feeling of nostalgia becomes permanently embedded in your mind. You start to realize how the most simplest things in life are so satisfying. That’s exactly how i felt being away from home.
Tonight, i had the chance to revisit one of those simple things in life. It was the popular late night activity we often participate in. Another photo-shoot session was in order…..KTL MEDIA X THE GREEN CAR. Being optimistic, we decided to check out the new speed skating arena that is being built for the 2010 Winter Olympics. To our surprise, there was sufficient lighting. Why at night? Why not. It’s the quietest time of the day. The mind is clear and focus, creativity follows. enjoy.

Another track day, perhaps the last event at Pacific Raceways this year. This time around only one of the two DC5s attended. Already averaging 1min45sec at the July event, David had only one objective, to break 1min40sec… Screaming in all the corners, the Yokohama ADVAN A048s could not keep up with how the DC5 wanted to perform. Averaging 1min42sec, it is obvious with the no grip factor the DC5 can do better. But how much better? Can the 2 seconds be saved with full racing slicks? Possibly?
