I want to give Ben some props for tearing up Shady Side Sunday.  He hit a 9.2 if not better.  I left a little bit after 4 o'clock so the best I saw was a 9.2.

Being in the 9.2s is very very good for a stock import, esp. for one that cost under 25k. &nbsp;BTW, thats a very good time too for Ben. &nbsp;No wonder u 2 are so close out at Test N Tune <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

I was feeling a 9.0 because i was still spinning through 1st. But i broke 2 of my motor mounts and that kept me from running the last 40 min of the day. On my breaking run i still ran a 9.30 at 77mph. Not bad for a break. I will be back stronger than even in a few weeks. And im not looking for a 9.1 or 9.0. Im looking to bust heads...

Madd props to StockForNow. His WRX is bone stock running what i have to kill myself on the track to run. Cant wait to see it modded. I would love to see what my friend Nicks WRX will run. Look foward to the races in a few weeks guys...ill be ready...

Man, looks like peoples times just keep getting lower and lower. &nbsp;From the way its going doesn't look like it will be to long before we see daily driven 4 cylinders in the 7s around the area.

When you come out we might just see one. If i ever get turbo...we might see one. If Jonathan gets slicks and a hands on boost controller we will see one. It will be great. Lets not forget if James keeps it up well see one and if Nick doesnt anything else we might see one...

Sean will have one too one day!!!

Who is Jonathan? &nbsp;9.0 is ok for an import although I thought a 500-hp import would be in the 7's Ben.

Jonathan is a guy from over here in Greenville with a GST. 500hp import will hit 7s or lower with ease. But who has one? If you are referring to my signature then thats just things to come. 9.0 is pretty damn good for an import with either no traction at all or barely anything done to the motor. But what do i know...i just drive it!

actually 500HP in an import would be in the 6s easy. &nbsp;the Cars that are running low 8s have a little over 200hp. &nbsp;Although I think the highest HP your gonna see out of a Japanese 4 banger in our area would be just over 300. &nbsp;At least until someone decides to go all out.

That guy up at Shady Side in the green 1st gen eclipse runs 7's on street tires but its awd so it doesnt spin really. &nbsp;He's probably pushing id say 350. &nbsp;Those are some good cars to mod. I havent seen him since that the last import shootout I went to in like December.
