Pilot first GRA event ~ 09/08/07 (Part 1)

Today, I got to see one of the MEOC member whom is also one of my friend in action. His name is Thomas aka Pilot. Yeah, he is a real pilot and his weapon of choice for today's battle was none other than his monster Mitsubishi Evolution 6.

I had he opportunity to drive his car two nights back. I must say the car has some power under the hood and plenty of potential which has yet to be tab. But it could use a bit more response which is much needed in GRA events. The day didn't go quite smoothly for Pilot. Like all motor sports event, there's always that gremlins that decided to pop up in the worst possible time. In Pilot's case, he had miss firing problems and a new course for him. Despite having all those problems. He had quite well and able to give the other driver a stiff competition. He deserve a pat on his shoulder for the effort he put in in this competition.
