Is it as Misha theorised? Did you look in the mirror and see them passing and get pulled wide because you were distracted? Really feel for you- that was a high speed smash!
Most importantly: the occupants of the crashed car were ok. Source: others seen them standing track-side and the track did not get closed (is the case when people require medical assistance).
Thank you for the ride of a lifetime Misha! The car survived a 7000+km, 12 day, 5 county, 1 racetrack, road trip, without any problems at all. I will fix the tyre situation and return next year. The tyres didnt have much markings on them from the rubbing it sounds much worse then it looks on the tyres. The car is my summer daily here in Sweden. Thank you again Misha! #pancakesforpancake
Love the Evo wagon, didn't think you'd get the opportunity to drive one with how rare they are. The owner definitely needs to sort the wheel clearance issues, but it's very tastefully kept and looks great.

Man at that scraping sound. It's like nails on a chalkboard (but kinda worse as in some instances it can cause bigger problems than just the unpleasant noise). Good job avoiding the accident.
@@gazman9468 Yeah, in the last years jdms (real ones like this evo) are going so much up in price in just a few months. I'm sorry for you that couldn't buy it, you will find better ;)

This weeks videos just proves, the ultimate goal is being able get home safely Brilliant car, love these wagons and the forester sti, wish they were worldwide cars
I had problems with rubbing when I was running lowering springs with stock struts myself. I switched to coil overs with camber plates and got rid of the rubbing and it handles way better.
So glad to see all concerned are safe. @mgcharoudin hats off to you sir for some awesome reactions there which undoubtedly saved a much bigger incident, not only avoiding it but also staying on the track yourself at what is a very challenging point on the lap with all the camber, direction and elevation changes. Awesome job but so glad all are safe more than anything.
Nice to see a so respectful JDM wagon lover like this guy and credits to Misha for his good driving skills during that situation as he stated there was nothing to do more than that.
235 width tires are stock size for the Evo 9. The rubbing issue is not the tire size, it's the wheels that are too offset for the car. Looks good but doesn't function good on track. I used to run 255 on my Evo and some track guys will run 275 without issue.
That yellow came at just the right time, because the water temp had been rapidly increasing. The stock gauges in modern cars are usually quite heavily center weighted so when they start to go north of the centre line they're usually on their way to overheating. This is why I like an extra gauge that gives an accurate temp reading. Him turning on the aircon didn't seem to do the temp any favours either, more load on already heavily loaded engine. You'll see the gauge started to go north of centre at around 8.55 and aside from a brief cooldown during the first flag, its steadily climbing after that. Maybe he could change the coolant to that waterless stuff where its less dangerous for the temps to get high.
I checked the logg after the run 98c on water temp, The car had a new waterpump, fluids, all the belts and pullys are all new Mitsubishi parts prior to my trip down.
I like to use my phone to monitor water temp via OBD. Temps in my Miata stay low on the track but rise when idling. Unfortunately I can't check oil temp or pressure, need to install sensors and gauge/s for that
Bigger rad is already on and it had new fluids prior to my trip, but ill look in to upgrading the fan to a bigger better unit during the winter, thanks for the advice.@@frequency0007
What a ride ! Always had a soft spot from square wagons ♥ As others already commented, you had quite a few mishaps recently, not that they're your fault, but from experience i know it calls for backing-off a little, just temporarly, before something really bad happens (though it was a good call to lap the GT3 shortly after the crash to get back on your horse !). We just want you safe out here Misha, to live a long and happy life with Megi and all your projects ! Listening to your podcast recently made us even more in love with your personality, your character, your values, your choices ! Take care Misha, hope you two have a nice time in Croatia !
Fantastic motor, only advice for the owner... get the whole underside sealed (wax oiled as we call it in Ireland) very bad for rust and rot underneath. Great lap other than the obvious and the yellows
Indeed what Misha said, I feel sorry for him because we were behind him... Yea I agree on that one. He was careful and wanted to leave room but most likely didn't pay attention to his outside line and too much in his mirrors, bit of curb and grass and it's over. Respect that both of you checked each other out and for the owner to ask if you wanted to continue (as you said not much you can do but still very thoughtful) Stay safe!
Used to have an '03 Outlander, had this issue: the rear diff used to bang on chassis when changing gears from 1 to 2nd/2nd to 3rd, same thing with this EVO (there are 2 bushing on rear diff MR580045 and MR580046 to be changed) Apart that and rubbing, AMAZING CAR!!!
If I recall the last EVO wasn't on great tires. This car seemed sorted other than being a bit too low for the track. Perfect for a daily. Nice lap other than the crash but thankfully it sounds like they are OK
Just come across this after the 5 speed Evo 9 film... brilliant! I always wanted to see a 6 speed being driven hard so im less paranoid about mine 😂 Never been into the wagons but this is one wagon I'd have. I did chuckle when you turned the air con on, I always use it as the car picks up speed faster than the electric windows can close 😂 Evoooooo IX! ❤
a great video all together. i will hopefully be shipping my '99 stagea 260RS next year and hope to be able to try the track one day. hope to see more content like this
Definitely feel for the driver and after your reasoning Misha, I also feel for you too and you're right there was a photographer and the emergency track guys are experienced with that kind of predicament
just for the record - since everything was ok in that case: theres no way to continue driving. conditions were absolutely fine - he could have parked in the grass and ran back. in a situation like that you have to make sure the driver is ok, setup warning triangle - and never rely on another person to call in without communicating! the photographer might have phone/connection/battery issues or whatever. im sad to say it but because of people acting like Misha in this case theres people unnecessarily dying every day. :( btw this is coming from a nürburgring driver, race car driver and ex-paramedic.
I love the respect you have for people crashing they car. I skip the front car at point of impact. Because it sucks for they guy crashing. Big props man, love the content, i hope one day you will drive my rb20det powered big single turbo 200sx s13 track tool👌
As that black car was running wide onto the curb I was thinking they must have been looking back at the car approaching from behind fast as f*** and got caught off guard by the curb, poor driver, glad you guys avoided that one.... could have been far worse. Not to mention maybe losing one of so few Evo wags. That one would sting.
As it was said in other comments, 235 width is stock on Evo 8 & 9. I was running 255/40/17 on both my Evos on stock suspension and without any rubbing. My 8 had rubbing only after I installed the coilovers and lowered it and 9 was fine on stock bilstein suspension. Just find the right offset wheels!
Was hesitating on buying one, but the thing that held me back the RHD only (because it would have been my DD in Switzerland)... Ended with a 2018 WRX STI instead !😍😍
Hi Misha! Great content as usual! It would be great to see a video about what people who aren't much into mechanics should look into with their old cars if it is their first time taking it to track! Would also help prevent easy mechanical failures :) Thank you for the lovely content
Excellent video of a rare Evo Wagon. I have a stock 2005 VII wagon (Sport 2.0) with the 4G63 99 Kw. A bit thirsty, drives very good. Wood love a couple rounds on that track.
Sad about the crashes, but good to hear he is alright. On another note. I would love for you to ask the guy in the old mitsubishi Colt for a ride, the one at 14:36. That would be a fun trip i bet
That was a close one! For me the scariest part of the whole track is foxhole and right after it. Big speeds, downhill and one look in the mirror at that speed and can get you like the BMW. Misha, what advice would you get when going down and how to avoid situations like this?
Misha, your a stand up dude! Nothing more you could have done for that fella that got sideways. Plus like you said. There were plenty of folks within 100 or so meters from the accident. I hope they were okay!
just for the record - everything was ok in that case - but theres no way to continue driving in such a situation. conditions were fine - he could have parked in the grass and ran back, call in and set up warning triangles. in a situation like that you have to make sure the driver is ok and you can never rely on another person to call in without communication! im sad to say it but because of people acting like Misha in this case theres people unnecessarily dying every day. :( i was shocked he didnt even consider stopping and instantly excused his wrong behavior. btw this is coming from a nürburgring driver, race car driver and ex-paramedic. seconds count - you have nothing to lose but another persons life! dont be a coward
Seems like a tarmac spec rally car will be ideal around the Nurburgring. Monza Rally was part of the WRC. A German Rally with a N'Ring Special Stage would be very cool. They could include the South loop, too.
There's an event they do where the rally cars run the circuit the opposite direction. An onboard of a tarmac spec Opel Manta 400 or Sierra Cosworth RS500 would be an absolute treat.
CT9A estate wagon is a legend. Tbh, I thought with the noises and scratching, I feared that the car might break or disintegrate but I am glad that it held up. And wow Accident at 6:29 I hope they made it out okay.....
North America really got the short end of the stick when it comes to the Mitsubishi lancer/evo. I never even knew there was a wagon version of this, it's so cool!
Misha man! At what point do you say that a car is unsafe to run like this? How did you know it wasn’t cutting into the side walls of the tires and could have blown out going 200 kmh r faster??? Lol you have nuts of steel my friend! I love you and the channel brother be safe out there!!!
6:28 This is the reason why insurance in DE is expensive for BMW if you are a young driver. I hope that the BMW owner will have a quick and easy repair.👍
Wow, they were doing probably more than 180kmh and lost traction, getting sideways slowed them down to maybe 150, but its still lethal speed, amazing that they were standing next to the track after that, i know i would be hugging the nearest tree.
235 is what evos come from factory, your wheel offset is wrong. I would also recommend to upgrade rad and thermostat, the car started overheating towards the end.
@@Works_Garage yeah I heard about the AC but still with so much air flow you should not overheat. I drive my Evo in Cyprus where the climate is like we live in a volcano on a track 10 times smaller full throttle, never had the temp gauge move. As for the wheels, you need more offset, but if you don't track it all the time it doesn't really matter. I have Advan rg2 18x8,5 et31 and I can fit 245 easily with the same camber I run at the track.
Nice evo 💪 I've driven it too with some ecu and all spec version and I could not send it in normal traffic... now when I see it going it gave me a confident boost. I think I'll come around the track next year with smax st and couple of friends. Then I'd like if Mr choroid...damn what a difficult last name... would come for a ride and drive also. So 2 lap on cam...
Great video as always Misha. The car is 1 I've never seen before & the owner seems like such a great guy & was so relaxed & easy going. I'm glad the BMW driver was alright.
I'm on 285s on a stock chassis, and I don't rub. You need higher offset wheels, and hubcentric slip on spacers (10-20mm) with extended studs in the front. 18x9.5 +38 should let you run those tiny 235s without any fender rolling. Do not get low offset wheels for a CT9A, all of those people are wrong, and all of those people rub.
Im the guy that crashed the BMW, everything is fine except my wallet
You still have your health to fill up that wallet even more than before!
@@mgcharoudin thats very true! Wise words from an awesome guy
Is it as Misha theorised? Did you look in the mirror and see them passing and get pulled wide because you were distracted? Really feel for you- that was a high speed smash!

I noticed too. 1/4 tank according to the needle 😅. Might read incorrectly due to the movements.
No, it's correct. Mitsu Evo drinks fuel like

Great vid as always. What a car, sublime. Lowering springs and semi slicks are rarely a good combination.
You can fit 255 with rolling the fenders. I was running 265 with a modest roll and pull but I rubbed, but I was 2mm lower than I should be.
I love that the speed is going off the speedo past 180 and still has another gear left
235 should be perfectly fine on an evo 9, got the wrong offset wheels on it. Needs to add some camber to it or get new wheels
I found it so funny with the speedometer going over 180, I'd mark it with a pen or something xD
The EVO IX is my dream car so seeing another one on the channel is great

Misha man! At what point do you say that a car is unsafe to run like this? How did you know it wasn’t cutting into the side walls of the tires and could have blown out going 200 kmh r faster??? Lol you have nuts of steel my friend! I love you and the channel brother be safe out there!!!
That fuel gauge drop reminds me of my Subaru when I went on the ring. Also a quarter tank in 1 lap GONE. But it's the price we pay for fun.
Lets hope that the guy made it
I respect you for not uploading the crash when you could have for more view
wow. I am a little fan of Misha and EVO, and now they are together )))) awesome!!!!
MISHA OMG, as soon as I seen the dirt kick up my face and eyes 😳 I seen the car yank to the left and the ad kicks
Car would have crazy potential with right set of tires, its not all about look. Thats even effecting into safety.
6:28 This is the reason why insurance in DE is expensive for BMW if you are a young driver. I hope that the BMW owner will have a quick and easy repair.👍
wha t a driver, the reaction of the owner is priceless hahahahhaha, awsome car
We have the Evo wagon in Singapore as well. But it's mostly the 4 speed auto.
Wow, they were doing probably more than 180kmh and lost traction, getting sideways slowed them down to maybe 150, but its still lethal speed, amazing that they were standing next to the track after that, i know i would be hugging the nearest tree.
This is the most accurate comment ive seen till now
235 width tire is normal for EVO, they come with them, he just put on wheels that are too far out.
My ocd wouldn't let me carry on driving this car like ypu did @misha, well done on your sharp reflects.
235 is what evos come from factory, your wheel offset is wrong. I would also recommend to upgrade rad and thermostat, the car started overheating towards the end.
Ac was on and the log showed 98c on the water so no problem mate :), but yeah 235 on 17 inch rims, im running 18inch rims.
@@Works_Garage yeah I heard about the AC but still with so much air flow you should not overheat. I drive my Evo in Cyprus where the climate is like we live in a volcano on a track 10 times smaller full throttle, never had the temp gauge move. As for the wheels, you need more offset, but if you don't track it all the time it doesn't really matter. I have Advan rg2 18x8,5 et31 and I can fit 245 easily with the same camber I run at the track.
That was a real close call 😮
2:59 thats very interesting because misha sounds a bit like my friend who also learnt a lot through videogames
Nice evo 💪 I've driven it too with some ecu and all spec version and I could not send it in normal traffic... now when I see it going it gave me a confident boost.
I think I'll come around the track next year with smax st and couple of friends. Then I'd like if Mr choroid...damn what a difficult last name... would come for a ride and drive also. So 2 lap on cam...
Great video as always Misha. The car is 1 I've never seen before & the owner seems like such a great guy &
was so relaxed & easy going. I'm glad the BMW driver was alright.

SO fuckjng simple, so good, EVO IX deff in my top 10
Unlike the previous Evo that I drove here we have a six gear - hahah soo funny and that smile and look into the camera, hilarious
I love how the speedometer only shows up to 180 km/h and they you just see the needle go past it
I'm on 285s on a stock chassis, and I don't rub. You need higher offset wheels, and hubcentric slip on spacers (10-20mm) with extended studs in the front. 18x9.5 +38 should let you run those tiny 235s without any fender rolling. Do not get low offset wheels for a CT9A, all of those people are wrong, and all of those people rub.
Acording to german TÜV and road rules that car shouldve exploded or at least disintegrated like 50 times throughout the lap lol.
4:44 235 width is stock .... ??
Looks like wrong offset from rims.
It's hilarious seeing the speedometer go out the bound despite being almost stock 😂
It's originally speed limited to 112mph/180kph, makes it look crazy fast going off the clock though 😅
