Im hoping to crack into the 11's also, just added a 10.5 housing and Helix 02, my previous best before that was a 12.26.
He could run in the Import vs Domestics race (the other event that day this year). Instead of beating up on us Sloburaus (like me), he could beat up on some Stangs or LS1s!

Links to Subaru thoughts on the Shootout-

http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=796991 (I know this one is irritating, but try to not let it get to you too much. Yes the suby guys talk a lot of sh*t, but then again, there site seems to be full of a lot of trolls especially of the EVO kind. So if we had a bunch of WRX trolls talk crap on EVOs on a EVO forum, I know we would get pissed too)

Hey, Caelin, you still haven't joined up on the DcEvoClub. You should join us, man. We have about 5-6 guys caravaning up there together IN ADDITION TO the ISP guys, so it should be one helluva group. We could pick you up along with the other MD guys at the first rest area north of Baltimore...
All i have to say is, poor subarus

Anyway if the mini van project is not done in time, I may have to just run my evo - pity those slowbarus.

Seriously though, I hear that SPD the performance arm of Slowbaru of North America has offered to donate a dump truck of kitty litter and speed dry to clean up all the oil downs from the broken slowbarus
As much as you make fun of the Subaru cars I am baffled as to why they still give you business. That is rude as hell in my book. You claim to be a car enthusiast, act like one. They are not that bad of a vehicle.

1. Because most of the people modding these cars don't sink the money into them like Evo owners do. There are far more parts for Evo's than Subaru's, but over the last year it has improved a little. Al, you know as well as I do that bad tuning is a major part of why any car blows their engine. Part failure is the other major reason. It happens with Evo's too, buddy.

2. On a road course with professional drivers, properly setup, and the same amount of horsepower they are close to equal. In certain areas of performance, yes the Evo does shine and out perform the Subaru. This doesn't make it a piece of crap.

3. Last but not least, both of these cars are not meant for drag racing period, but you already knew that. Yes, it works but thats not what they were designed for.

For a middle aged man you sure act immature, especially towards a large portion of your customer base. Take that as some constructive criticism.
