since i'm not a drag race and have no clue what my car could actually run, i go by what josh tells me he said the power to weight ratio is definately enough, but suspension setup and tires are required to hit the mark.

but if we are talking 9 sec 1/8th mile i can do that driving it myself .


(but in all seriousness, i would love to go but i will be on vacation). if josh or richard wants to take the car out they are more then welcome too .

I don't understand where you guys get this easy 9 from.
Run your first 10 and you will see what i mean.

i think 700whp/ 1.3 60ft should get you in the 9s.....no need to hate.

No a 1.3 60' and 700 hp does not guaranty a 9.Ask me how i know.
Not hating,you have to do some thing for people to hate.Run a 9 and i will be the first fan boy,i promise.I chased a 9 for almost 3 years and another dsmer has be chasing it for 6.So far no local has done it yet with a 4g.

People act like the 1/4 does start with an 1/8th mile, I understand on some of the bigger turbo cars (GT40 and bigger) that it would be advantageous to have another 1/8th mile but for the 35R guys. If you can't get the turbo ready to go off the line then you need the driver mod, I'd rather me out in front of the guy before the 1/8th rather than rely on catching him in the final stretch.

Well just about every evo will run a 9 or better. hell you can run a 9.07 will a 2sec 60ft and an 13.9 1/4. if you are running a 10 than your car is slower than a stock evo. Unless the denton track is not a true 1/8 mile than I would be willing to bet every almost every ntec guy can run at least a 9 most running low 8's and several running 7's.
