EUROSPEC TIME ATTACK EVO VI
WHIFBITZ TIME ATTACK TOYOTA SUPRA
1993 Nissan Skyline GT-R (BNR32)
SILVER BULLET EVO X
I have yet to see a EVO X on the road in Europe – I have seen one in real life, but only at a dealer… but the EVO X seems to be a bit hit in America and is quickly becoming a popular tuning platform. The Chicago-based AMS shop is one of the leading proponents of US Evo tuning and they built up this ‘silver bullet’ street/Time Attack machine. They got the car fresh from the dealer with only a few miles on the odometer and started to tear it apart. The guys at AMS started the build with one thing in mind, and that was to create a street drivable, time attack machine. So it needed to be lightweight and it had to pack a serious punch.

BUILD: TOP FUEL VOLTEX HONDA S2000
Picking a clear winner for Yokohama’s World Time Attack Challenge this year just can’t be done. It is the most fierce lineup of time attack machinery we’ve ever seen in one place. But if you ask the guys behind the scenes, they’ve picked the Top Fuel/Voltex S2000 as the most threatening international entry. We got an exclusive invite, thanks to Garage88, to come and see this insane Honda up close last night, so here’s a sneak peek at this Pro Class competitor.

MOTIVE TIME ATTACK S14
If you know anything of Andrew Hawkins and his S14 200SX, you will understand why we think of it as a cat with nine lives. JET200 has faced more than its fair share of hurdles during the nine years of Andrew’s ownership, but despite the challenges that have presented themselves, it has always come out on top.
BYP’S HOMEMADE CIVIC RACECAR
I don’t think any of us thought we would have been given such
privileged access to the build up of this car. It’s been a complete
pleasure to witness the hard work and dedication that this focused BYP
team have shown with their Civic project. With precious little
preparation time before the World Time Attack Challenge, the boys of BYP
opened the doors of their backyard for our final look-in on the car
before the event itself. It’s a space like no other, with parts of all
kinds scattered across the pavers. This backyard is the workshop that
the Civic spends most of it’s time in. Built and dismantled time and
again by Jim and Ben Tran.
