Vitals: Vitals: 2006 Electric Blue Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX - 25,000 miles. ~390whp @ 3000 lbs.

Car is currently setup for NASA TTA/PTA, also very competitive in NASA TTS/ST2, Time Attack or SCCA STO class with a restrictor.

This car is no stranger to the area since I first started tracking it in 2006. But family events and obligations as well as a general lack of funds and time to keep running the car force this sell. So rather than sitting in the garage.... It's for sale! Let my loss be your gain! I really really don't want to part this car out, so please spread the word as it needs to go.
As for trades; I could be interested any either a 'Spec' turnkey racecar or a nicer low mileage street car (under 40k).

History:
I bought the car new in April of 2006 with the idea of getting into track events. 3 weeks later it was at AMS getting a proper 93oct tune! I attended my first event on 6/10/2006 and I've been hooked ever since. In late 2006 it was the victim of a hit-n-run in St Louis and had minor damage on the LR quarterpanel which and was turned into insurance. Late in 2006 it progressed from my Daily Driver & track car to more of a weekend fun car with occasional track events; always garaged. I started pulling out some interior bits and weight, etc.

In May of 2009 I purchased a truck and trailer and have been trailering it to events ever since. It does occasionally see the street and still carries full insurance. With a change of the exhaust; it's borderline street legal. Current odometer is just over 25,000.

2012 updates include a full NASA legal roll cage from Izzy's custom cages in St Louis, SPA fire suppression system, new belts, master cutoff, allview mirror, custom brake cooling setup and rear positioned ballast. The car carries a 2012 logbook for both NASA TT and NASA race classes. Power windows and power door locks still in the car with the cage too! Current odometer is just around 25,000.

To date, the car has spent just over 90 days on track. I have a record of all the tracks, dates, changes and laptimes in the car. The car has seen an array of tires, rims, suspensions, alignments, brake pads, rotors, fluids, etc. Right now it's setup for NASA TTA/PTA and finished 3rd out of 14 at the 2011 National Championships with a blistering 1:32.8 at Mid Ohio and there's more left in it.
The car holds an array of regional track records in NASA TTB and TTA classes. PM/Email (pitchn at gmail dot com) me for details. I have performed an insane amount of preventative maintenance with aggressive fluid intervals to prevent issues. Other than the 2008 incident, it's never had to be towed off track in all the events I've been to. It's been a truely reliable car. The engine has never been opened, it still has the stock block and stock turbo - always has. I do all the maintenance myself and anything complicated has been performed by AMS Performance in Chicago (http://www.amsperformance.com/n_pitcher.php), Boostin Performance in Chicago or Buschur Racing in Ohio. I don't trust dealerships or no-name maintenance shops. The car goes the 4-7 hours to one of the best shops in the nation a few times a year and I give them a detailed list and never think twice about their top notch work. Enough said!

Any and all stickers on the car can be removed. The car still gets waxed multiple times a year and looks terrific on track. The front bumper and hood do have several chips from track debris; as you'll find with any car that has been tracked enough. The car makes great safe power, the transmission has been refreshed with a longer 4th gear, the car rotates insanely well with the new AST suspension, Sheppard Racing rear differential and the tuned ACD (Active Center Differential).

Car weighs right at 2950 lbs empty w/o driver and no ballast.

Update, July 2012:
At it's last event, the car had an 'off' and sustained some driver's side cosmetic damage. While it's just cosmetic, the entire right side of the car is scratched from a very unkind tirewall with the rear quarterpanel getting the worst of it with some dents. I am currently trying to source the needed replacement parts but would definitely be willing to sell the car 'as-is' for a DISCOUNTED rate (think a few thousand off). Serious buyers contact me for more details.

Asking $23,000 with the stock rims. Keep in mind I've invested over a $5000 this year in an (Izzy's) cage & fire suppression system and $5,000+ in transmission and suspension upgrades in 2011, not to mention all the dyno tuning and time/effort to 'dial-in' the car. I know there are some on here cheaper and some more expensive. But few have documented the build up of their car, or shared as much information (good and bad) as I have throughout owning the car and in their FS ad. I'm an honest straight-forward guy and I want to see this car have a good home. I could pull the AST suspension if you want the price lower; but the setup is really awesome and definitely ok for street driving and tracking on street tires even.

I have some additional/extra parts available as well. Everything from stock exhaust, to rims, tires and even my 18' trailer and 2010 Truck that will all be posted in a separate part-out thread. Anyone that wants to combo in stuff with the sale of the car will be given a discount of course.
If you want me to help you learn the car on track, we can work something out within reasonable proximity. I can also deliver the car or the entire package (car + trailer + truck) within 250 miles on central IL. Beyond that, we can work something out.
