I'd say an RA would be better to dirve on track than an EVO 4. Gearing is nice, the handling is nice, the power is alright but would really need more boost and a better intercooler.
Cheap too, can be bought for 4k easy

i want to spend about 2k-3 tops! he will use his on the road too i,i will mostly(if not only)be on the track with mine.
