NFL Player Kevin Burnett Rides in 800 HP Evo IX

With 450 tackles in his professional career Miami Dolphins Kevin Burnett is a hard man to impress. He’s 6 ft 3 in (1.91m) and weighs 240 lbs (110 kg) and looks like a hard man to impress, but a tuned Mitsubishi Evo IX manages to scare him a bit.
The car in question is an 800 horsepower Evo IX dubbed “Infamous Monster”. It features a completely rebuilt motor and a HTA GT3794 turbo kit tuned to run with E85. Thanks to this, it dynos at 808 all-wheel horsepower, most likely about a thousand at the crank.

Mind you, this NFL linebacker is no stranger to power, since he owns two Nissan GT-Rs and a Toyota Supra. But after the ride Burnett said the Evo was the fastest machine he’d been in.

It’s interesting to see how real men don’t scream in supercars, they smile!

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s.
