Mitsubishi’s UK arm today announced that it is developing a race-going version of its new Lancer EVO X, with which it plans to participate in the Britcar Championship and a one-make race-series in the near future. The race-prepped Lancer EVO X will make its first public appearance at the Britcar 24-hour race at Silverstone on September 20th & 21st driven by the company’s managing director and former BTCC regular James Kaye along with two other drivers who are yet to be named. -Continued The project is being run in association with Southampton-based vehicle importation and compliance specialists SVA UK. The racing version of the Lancer EVO X which is anticipated to deliver around 400HP is being co-developed with ADR Motorsport, the same firm that builds and runs the two-works Mitsubishis currently competing in the British Rally Championship.
“We are pleased to be introducing a race-car programme for the Evo X”, said Ralliart’s General Manager, Paul Brigden. “Mitsubishi UK has not been involved with circuit racing for many years, so this new initiative is a great opportunity for us. Subject to the level of interest from competitors, we are also hoping to announce a one-make race-series for the Evolution X soon,” he added.
