Matt K. and Josh made their way to the Mt.  Ascutney Hillclimb to support one of DSG's owners.  It was the first event for Alex's EVO II with a large helping of antilag.  For a refresher on antilag look HERE.  The car is currently making well over 250hp per liter.  For those of us that don't understand the metric system, put 250hp in a small bottle of soda. 

Matt and Josh managed to run their own rally on the way up.  They strung together a path of fire roads on GPS and tore it up in a scoobie turbo.   Along the way they ran across an abandoned hydro plant.   Crossing the finish line at Ascutney,  they fouind the Evo on Jacks in a makeshift roadside pit at the base of the mountain.  The car went off course in an early run destroying the left rear wheel.  As the cars came down the mountain in prep for the second and final run, our duo made it just in time for an emergency wheel change with a very generous second Evo owner.  With only minutes to complete before Alex would miss his window, both cars were in the air side by side.  The damaged wheels would not fit the newer Evo so they became jackstands (see photo). 

Alex made the run on barrowed street tires and managed T.O.D (the fastest time of the day).  Way to go Alex!

Check out the photos of the event and the Trip up after the jump...

Shots of the carnage and some of the other entrys.  What a great event! So laid back.  To give you an idea of the scope of the track.  Any car that could make the run up in less that three and a half minutes requires a roll cage!

 Here's a look at the trip up to the mountain.  Epic. 

We'd be happy to forward the route to anyone who want's to give it a try.  Just download it to a GPS unit and have the navigator call out turns WRC style!
