Hi all

[ricey]

Hi,

I have just joined so this is my intro :thumbsup:

I'm Peter D (known as ricey) and I have an Evo 8MR daily driver and an Evo III RS track car. Some of you know me from that other forum EvoOz :lol:.

I got the nickname ricey around 12 years ago from AJ of the ARARCC here in WA. It was originally 'ricepop' (as I was too old to be a riceboy) and it got shortened to ricey. It was something to do with my KF Laser TX3 turbo 4WD having an Evo III front bar and Cosworth bonnet vents......

The nick has stuck to me like shit to blanket for the last decade or so and I've grown accustomed to it.

I am in the process of selling off the non standard bits from the Evo 8 and reverting to stock; this is to help fund my new money pit, the 3 RS:thumbsup:. My wife and I are going to share driving of the Evo 3 at various WA motor sports venues, with our first major outing being the Fabcar 1Day Classic Rally in November.

Cheers,

Peter D

Hi Brian,

thanks for that offer; I appreciate it. I am in two minds as to how to go with the evo 3; if I had lots of money I'd go the full rebuild/restore path like Jase did, but as I don't, I figure on going the "let's just keep it running and competing for as cheap as possible" route.

It should be fun :thumbsup:

Cheers,

Peter D
