I'm not saying it's crap, but the EVO's time was STOCK. That 7.43 was with a roll cage and stripped. And a 997? That's ancient history (or so it seems now).

So, great car for what it is, and damn good value for money. But on a regular track day in the U.S. at a HPDE now? Spec Miata's are behind you flashing the lights for you to get out of the way.
