    Yep, Westside took the top MPH by a lot. I'm pretty sure 132 was their best.

    what were you trapping last year pat? i think we were getting 120-122, cant remember.

    132 with a FWd is usualy good for mid-high 10s if your getting a SOLID run

    Yes that is the record. The old mark was 128.71 by the red Datsun.

    I went 127 and change last year running lousy...no where close to where Westside landed.

    And for the record, they're now AWD...not FWD. That car is a beast!

    Not the same Colt. This one is a Mitsu Mirage GT. Almost the same, but not quite.

    Gawd that's just sick

    The Mirage and the K-car were both darned fast but from what I've seen the Mitsu took the day.

    No question...Westside had me by a mile in both ET and MPH. My best ET with the ScAries was 11.63, best MPH was 119.57.

    Yeh that whole factory AWD swap sure is nice..

    I think the 4g63 head intake ports also flow right around 200% of what the little dodge motor does!

    Which is why im trying to scrape one up.. for a k-car.

    What freaks me out is that those times would have been a FWD world record maybe...13 years ago?

    Then stuff like this happened.

    Holy hell, 132 in an AWD car. What was the ET? Had to be high 10s at least. berkeley that's quick.

    Every year I kick myself for not taking off work and going down!

    In reply to Twin_Cam: +1. What was the ET?

    In reply to IWELDIT: That's nice, but did it cost less than $2010 to build?

    The ET was 10.7

    If thats the fastest ET for a subaru... what the hell is up with that? I cant think of many cars that havent been modified to run 10s in some form or fashion.

    I think not.

    It's probably the fastest full interior street tire NON-STI WRX wagon in Canada.

    You know... one of those records that nobody REALLY gives a E36 M3 about.

    I'm claiming the world record for fastest 1st gen MX6 with a CT26 turbo with a 13.20 @ 118mph. Bow to my superiority!

    I had the first SVX in the 13's.

    Not really that impressive, is it?
