As long as I'm faster than you !

Heck there's Evo's running low 9's the same way.

hmm. good point. the only problem is that those cars running 9's are definately not street cars. yes they may be in the street class, but they are not daily drivers as Al's car is.

Unless there are ton of closet DSM people that don't like to post their times, there are like...7 people on their 1/4 registry (which is updated frequently) that have run 9s. I don't think any of those are street cars... 1 has run "low" 9s. Here is a "street driven" Impreza that has run 9.71 will a full interior and no nitrous (also still a 2.0L engine).

I'm not saying Impreza is better than Mitsu (there are abvisouly alot more fast DSMs) or anything it just shows with enough money and time anything is possible. Basically that's what drag racing comes down to these days, is money. Ingenuity only gets you so far.

Where's the proof he's running an EJ20?
I heard it was an 2.4L stroker. I'll check the link I posted this before hand.
Also no list will have all the people actually running times. Not that it is all that matters.
