Street Modified isn't exactly an easy class to compete in, either, so it's awesome seeing that car having done well. Last year the national SM champion (Mark Daddio, now drives AMS' time attack car) drove an Evo with an FP Green, wheels with a crazy front to rear offset (something like 18x10 in the front and 17x9 in the rear) and the other general suspension goodies. Locally the fastest SM car is a BMW 318ti with an M3 engine swapped into it and some meaty slicks. Anything is possible.
