Fumio Nutahara has given the Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X its first victory, winning the weekend’s Japanese Rally Championship round. Nutahara claimed the national championship round, Kuma Kogen Rally, in a Lancer that isn’t yet fully developed and beat the likes of Subaru’s current model Impreza WRX.
"I found the suspension better than the Evo IX," reported Nutahara. "Asphalt in this test has many results, and [it] would have been quite complicated to guide the IX here.
