I can remember when low 7's were stupid fast for a street car. And to tell you the truth high 6's isnt anything special anymore. Not trying to be a smart ass. Its just the way it is.

aint that the truth.. i remember when a 10sec street car was like balls to the wall.. than the high 9sec range was like uber fast/scarry on the street.. u could not get a race if u posted a 9 pass 1/4 mile... u can all do the math on translating a 10/9 sec to a good 1/8 mile..

now u got street cars posting 8sec passes in 4cyl. if you are not pushing the envelope or make a more efficient setup you are just loosing out.. the technology has come around 100% in the last 5 years.

hear is the awd motorsports evo making a 8.7 sec pass.
