Kat Benson launches new BurgerFuel Evo 7

Kat Benson has unveiled the new BurgerFuel Evo 7 Race Car at the 2013 CRC Speedshow, Auckland, New Zealand. The official launch video features a number of special guests including Rugby League legend Ruben Wiki, two-time V8 Champion Andy Booth from Woodstock Racing, Bathurst 1000 winner Jason Bargwanna, and TV stars Ben Barrington and Jared Turner from The Almighty Johnsons. The new widebody Mitsubishi Evolution 7 wears a striking graphics scheme designed by Red Bull's drift icon Mad Mike Whiddett and sits staunch on a fresh set of Enkei wheels, wrapped in Nitto Semi-Slick Tyres. Plenty of carbon fibre aero adorns the rear end along with a rather drift-inspired exhaust courtesy of some guy named Andrew Redward. Opening the doors you will find Momo racing gear complemented by original interior including the dash and half-cut doorcards. With a modified 2Litre powerplant and HKS running gear throughout, Kats new car will be a weapon to contend with in the NZGT Class for the 2013/14 summer season. ? Kat also wants to hit the track racing against the clock in TimeAttack/Superlap classes, Clubsprints and pehraps even having a crack at Targa NZ. Grabbing a few hints & tips from two-time NZV8 Champion Andy Booth, we cant wait to see her swap paint door-to-door in NZGT this summer - remember to tune into Oversteer TV to see the action!
