The GTP is FWD too. They will have a cool race and do gnarly one wheel FWD burnouts with their open diffs.

13.3 Seconds at 110 MPH in the Quarter Mile.

And these speeds arent totally correct since i have broken my Axel's numerous times on the launch..

Well everyone has their own definition of rice and mine is...

My personal definition of 'rice' would be anything, that makes a vehicle (car, plane, truck, SUV, bicycle, go-cart, motorcycle... etc...) look completely and utterly stupid. That includes, things that make it have the appearance of speediness, yet lack the ability to be fast..

Nice run! Do you even have the same motor in it? You must have put in a new cam, different throttle body, CAI, maybe pistons, etc., cause the stock ones might run in the 16s. What kind of 60ft. are you getting. My best 60ft. is around 2.07.

Thanks, O heck no, if i left my 2.5L motor in the engine it would have blown a while ago.. I swapped in a 3.0L engine, but now im thinking of swappin in a 3.5L for this summers project. Im not sure on the 60 ft run, last time i ran my car was back in July- August.. Been in the garage this winter.

BTW if you want me to post my Modifications back up i can..

P.S id still buy an Sti

Nothing rides like an All Wheel Drive car, plus the WRX's are lighter than my Bring.

Yes, I've run mine several times in the quarter. My best/most recent run is a 14.2 at 98+ mph. My mods are as follows:

MSP CAI with 9" K&N
Throttle body spacer
U-bend removal(a fix for a messed up exhaust idea by Pontiac)
Front & Rear strut tower braces

All those mods are "bolt-ons". No internal mods at all.

Not even lazs2. First of all I don't have(and I think WldThing doesn't have) a fart can sticking out behind my car. Also, I don't have a 2 foot high wing that serves no purpose, and most importantly, I don't have a bunch of stickers on my car for mods that haven't been done(typical ricer dress up idea). Now, my 1965 Impala SS 409, 4-speed, "that was a car". That sucker had h.p. and torque to match.

Get a clue about cars lazs2 and then bring something of value to the conversation.
