World Record Mitsubishi Evo Parade

July 15, 2008 by George Skentzos  




A UK-based group of Mitsubishi Lancer Evolutionists from the Mitsubishi Lancer Register (MLR) have successfully set a new Guinness World Record for the largest ever parade of the car they carry closest to their hearts.

Exactly 273 Evo’s lapped the Castle Combe Racing Circuit in Wiltshire, England which was fully supported by Mitsubishi Motors UK.

All generations of Evolutions were represented at the event – grouped by colour, including a few brand new Evo X’s.

“It has taken a small team of MLR members a huge amount of time and effort over the last year to pull this World Record attempt together, but to see it finally come to life on Saturday was incredible”

The event also raised £7,459.27 for the Richard Burns Foundation which provides support for people whose lives are affected by serious illness and injury.

    Don’t much care for the Lancer, but well done. And raised some money for charity!

  2. Richard Burns was a legend, and his passing at such a young age still shakes many.

    Great to see people raising money for his foundation, and of course, great to see so many Evo’s together!
