I am a car fanatic obsessed with all types of performance cars and auto racing. This is my *evolution* from a driving enthusiast to race car driver of a Mitsubishi Evolution IX.

DBA Brakes, Brake Partner for 2010
The MW3 Mitsubshi Evo IX is getting a set of DBA 5000 Series rotors to try for the upcoming 2010 SCCA Time Trials season. The 5000 series is a 2-piece rotor, 2-piece rotors save you weight, much higher heat dissipation and are more flexible for expanding and contracting without stressing the hat. You can also just replace the rotor if needed rather than the whole rotor and hat.
These 2-piece ultra-high performance rotors feature aerospace grade materials for added thermal (heat) protection to the vehicle’s wheel bearings. Stay tuned for updates on the installation and our first testing day.

Thanks to Dan at wheeldude.com for setting me up with some great wheels for my track setup. I appreciate the support. Wheel dude has great prices on wheels and they are great to work with.
I am going to run the 17×9 Rota DPT – Matte Bronze finish wrapped in Kumho Ecsta V700 R-compounds. I am hoping this setup performs well.
