Default So many fast cars.....

Is it just me or all the cars in my area(MD, VA, D.C) extremly fast this season or what? Last year i was running high 11s low 12s and i was doing ok. Now everyone is running 10s easy. What happened over the winter? Cars have been drinking there race gas

i hope you don't mean in va cause i hate to break the bad news. I don't want to give out the shops name, but they have a 99 2dr accord H22 turbo fully built running low 12's(drag slicks and gutted the trunk and rear seat), should be seeing 11's soon with the help of the bottle. I don't know the exact parts but i know the motor was sent out for almost 4 months and was getting built up and it dyno's somewhere alittle of 620 at the wheels. But civicGSRturbo your right, these guys must of been working all winter cause they've been coming out with some crazy stuff. I love watching those in-line pro cars go at it and all they have done are headgaskets and their running crazy times.

Hell yeah... I never thought I'd see 10 second cars in my class. I was able to qualify at almost every race last year running high 12's. This year it looks like people have to be running 11's to even qualify!!!! I just need to get this new setup in my car......

No kidding I've finally just come to grips with the fact that I will never have both the time and the money needed to "keep up" Last year I was running 14's (n/a), this year 11's (f/i) are my goal.

So, 3 seconds between seasons means next year I should be running 8's right

where i've only seen 3 other street legal aftermarket turbo cars besides me. A yellow lancer, a white LS integra and a fast a$$ 92-95 coupe from nu image. I had a turbo car before this one but decided to total it so now i finally got back around to working on another.

yeah, i'd say kevin from quality tire/inlinpro has the fastest car in woodbridge and is by far the best driver there(woodbridge area). i think theres a kevin from nu image. if he's the one with the red civic coupe.....then, well.........i think he needs a new motor and some driving lessons.

extreme is a great place to get things done, but honestly he better be prepared to wait awhile to get his car back or of been on a waiting list and it's finally his turn. Also what times does he want to run cause that's pretty much how they run from what i know. You tell them what time you want to run and they give you a price.

A while ago I was friends with the owner of the fastest car in Woodbridge...a 93 Cobra with a built 347, 17 supercharged pounds of boost, and the full suspension setup but he crashed it at 140 on Antietam (local reference, 25 mph speed limit for you out-of-towners). Then he has a 20G'd GSX ay 22 psi that he sold. That Quality Tire Civic kicks ***, i liked it when I saw it up there one time and like it even more now that I know it's damn fast.
