This 1997 Mitsubishi caught our eye at this year’s Sick Summer, but it wasn’t until owner Ryan Spurlin visited the tower on day four at Great Lakes Dragaway asking for a cylinder head in a parts call. Ryan’s no quit attitude not only got him through the build of the car, but also the push to fix the issues and finish Sick Summer.

A couple of well-known people in both the import and the drag-and-drive world, Jamie Lankford and Brent Leivestad crank out some insane builds at PFI Speed in Colorado.
