I said good bye to my 2004 Lancer Ralliart!

The Lancer is gone but the passion for the triple diamond remains!

Mitsubishi Model car collection and Brochure page is still alive and kicking!

My wife and I have an 18 month old son. We have baby #2 on the way soon. My company car is now the MMNA Factory Ralliart Evo IX. All these factors combined to the unfortunate trading in of my Lancer Ralliart. My wifes Montero Sport had over 90,000 miles on it. We traded that car, that was paid off, and my Lancer Ralliart on a brand new 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor. Now she has a brand new car, full warranty, low miles, and we are still at only one car payment. Plus I am taking the Evo as a company car. I will still update this site with diecast and meet pictures on the other pages... see the page contents below. I did get one last hurrah!!! in the Lancer. Two days before trading her in I drove her in the SCCA autocross in York, PA. You can see those pictures below as well.

I will miss "Artie" but when every chapter ends, another one is opened...... OK, kinda cheesey but I loved that darn car.

When a person owns a car they often times have to decide what "type" of car it will be. Stock, tuner, etc. I have worked for a Mitsubishi dealer since they bought the franchise in the mid-1980's. I have always loved the brand and have decided that I want to own a Lancer Ralliart that is all factory correct. I have only added factory MMNA parts, and accessories, or genuine Ralliart items. I love the company and love the workmanship that they do.

Autocross Pictures

This is the morning of the autocross warming up the Lancer and the Evo.

Here she is in action!

Here is the little guy in the paddock

I also collect Mitsubilia. Any model, brochure, book, etc. If it is about the triple diamond I want it. You can see my Mitsubilia Info on Page 4

I also own a 2001 Montero Sport XLS. Click Here for the cardomain site including Pajero diecaast collection and Dakar Rally History.

Lastly I help run a club in Central Pennsylvania of all Mitsubishi Owners. You can find information and picture son this site pertaining to all the above mentioned topics on this site.

Here are some pictures of my car along with THE actual Factory Mitsubishi Ralliart Evo IX from the SEMA Auto Show. The car is on display at my work, York Mitsubishi. You can see more pictures of the Ralliart Evo on page 6 of my site or at www.yorkmitsubishi.com

Alterations Made to Car
These are not strictly performance modifications but a list of any change made to the car that makes it differ from the way it was delivered from the factory.

Vortex Generator. Factory MMNA part from Evolution VIII MR.

Re-arranged the Factory MMNA gauge cluster. More useful and easier to use having them mounted higher on the dash. Below you can see the old way and the new way.

Factory MMNA Scuff Plates

Genuine Ralliart Pedal Set & Factory MMNA Carbon Fibre E-Brake lever.

Factory MMNA Hyper Groudn Cables & Factory MMNA Shift Knob.

My new Lancer keychain. It has the triple diamond on the back. Not bad for coming from MMCA.

Watkins Glen 6 Hour Pictures
Here is my car at the 2005 Watkins Glen 6 Hour Endurance Race. Not to mention a peak at the "Little Man!"

Yes, I am a Ralliart geek. above are my genuine Ralliart leather driving gloves. A great example of the Mitsubilia that I collect. Also, below is a small sample of some of my diecast collection.

You can see the entire collection on page 4.

Spirit of Competition!

Factory MMNA Evo VIII Style Wing

Here is the wing on the car.

Here is the factory flyer showing the wing.

Factory MMNA Sport Gauges

The Sport Gauges from the factory are top notch. I was a bit worried at first cause they are pretty salty but after I saw them in the car I love them. They are white faced and have the Mitsubishi logo on them. They show the volts, oil temp., and the vaccum backpressure.

Factory MMNA Wire Mesh Grill Garnish

Factory MMNA Gauge Cluster Surround

Ralliart High Pressure Radiator Cap

Factory MMNA Mudguards

These are a must. You have to stay on top of this color to keep it clean. It is front wheel drive so two mudguards up front are enough. It will help keep her clean and plus they look cool.

You can see previous Mitsubishi Motors Club of York, PA meet pics on pages 3 and 5 of my site.

Notice the name of the street?
Street named Lancer Lane!
