JR Motorsports Evolution 8 Drag Monster

Magnus is proud to help in the preparation JR motorsports Evolution 8 Drag monster. We can say without compromise that it is the most technologically advanced AWD drag car that the world has ever seen. In the last 2 years since the projects inception, countless hours of R&D was put into putting this concept which started as a simple idea, into motion. Magnus Motorsports AWD drag racing experience and builders of the worlds most powerful 4G63 engines was called upon as a consultant in building a full tube chassis AWD drag car that would retain the spirit of the Mitsubishi Evolution, in the sport compact drag racing tradition. The car retains AWD, transverse engine location, 4 wheel independent suspension and all original Mitsubishi engine and transmission castings all packed neatly into the standard body, true to the sport compact roots. The car will be used as a proving ground to test the limits of the Mitsubishi power plant inside an AWD platform. Full 25.1E chassis was meticulously constructed entirely in the UK, to meet all SFI safety specifications while retaining a 1030kg weight limit. This is the only AWD certified 25.1E chassis of its kind that we know of (So far! Hopefully it will inspire more!) The power plants were built entirely at Magnus Motorsports facility in Canada and mapped in England, making this a true international effort. We commend JR Motorsports for the impeccable execution of such an exciting machine, and are very thrilled to be chosen as the engine supplier and tuner for this phenomenal project.
