This was at the SCCA Wilmington Pro Solo this past weekend. For those not familiar, cars line up for a 'Christmas Tree' start on an autocross course.

 

This is the result of a modified Evo IX with 315 Hoosiers strapped to it.....

 

Car was fixed in paddock and back on course the next day

No wonder it snapped, big old sticky tires on an axle sized for a 15hp garden tractor!

 

But wait, I thought evos were GAWD and last forever with 800hp? Wonder how many launches he had on it.
