Yes, but when the EVO and STI came out they also had commercials and literature with them doing rally events and Mitsu used to deny cars like it was their job to do so.

Right on, but even the manual states that if racing, warranty may be gone.

Yeah good luck; when push comes to shove, they won't remember your name.


People it says clear as day in the manual where talking about prepping the car for competitive use. Yes it can handle being raced, but the warranty may be given up as well as the maintenance plan if heavy tracking is to blame.
