Who's going to step up to the plate? I know, I know. AWD dyno. But when it comes....

Chris, I'll add you into this group.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, but until I actually accomplish the run, my car has only proven high 14's on the 1/4.

Yeah, but that was like the Goku v2 or 3. You're on v4 or 5 now, huh?

I just want to point out, although some of the folks on FH don't want to hear none of it; how many other stock cars are there that are 13.0/12.9? Sure, Z06. Maybe '03 or '04 Cobra. But at least not here on Oahu. Certainly no imports I can think of.

I know that the iron block monsters, like the Supra and probably many others I don't know anything about, are easy to get into the 12's or even 11's with a lot less money. I know that the STI isn't something that's pedigree is explicitly drag, but hey! it's doing it.

I think those 2 cars I posted about above have had quite a bit of money dropped into them. I think the UR one has a package that's about $6k (boo). The other, I don't know how much he's put into it, but in the next year or 2 years, I think we're going to be seeing some nice results for a not too extravagant price.

We'll see. I think it's pretty exciting. Who's going to be the first STI that starts going down the drag/power path much the same way some of the WRX's did (Wes, Richard, Jayson, myself)?
