First 3S in the 9s

Swanny you better hurry the fuck up and make a clean pass in your car. Others seem to be catching on as well. I am sure you have seen this but others probably haven't. Either way its pretty impressive in my opinion.

It's AWD. A FWD one did run a 10.1 last week as well.

Fast car, and it is a very basic setup.
His #1 mod...stripped car. Since mine is a street car and I probably outweigh that car by about 1000lbs it will need to make ALOT MORE power to get numbers to be close.

Next time to the track is on a built trans with front diff and ALOT of boost on c-16.. I want to see what this thing does on real gas, im tired of messing around with pump.

^^ When do you think this might happen? I assume you got the coolant issues figured out?

A few of us 3/S guys are pretty pumped about the first 3/S in the 9s. A 3/S got into the 10s eight years ago. It took that long to get in the 9s.

Yeah its awesome. There is now competition to see who has the fastest car, reminds me of how stiff the dsm competition was when I first got into that scene. Hopefully the 9's won't be the barrier for the 3s.

goooo josh go! I think we're all rooting for you here.

Yeah, the competition in the DSM's is a little stiffer. A 9.99 won't even get you in the top 50 in the country. I fared a lot better in 1999. Glad to see you're dumping that pump gas fetish Swanny, turn up the wick and see what she'll do.
