We should get some sort of listing on the top 10/20/whatever fastest track times like they have on SupraForums for the top 10 fastest stock twins cars, and maybe a top dyno list too. I see all sorts of people NA-Ting and TT swapping their cars but rarely see any track times. I'd be willing to contribute my time to help with that.

There's not a lot of SC's posting 1/4 mile times because most are street
cars and not willing to commit to safety rules. I'd never put a cage in
my car. So after the first sub 11 pass, you get the boot & the ban.

That's true. Better make that first pass worth it then.

I honestly don't think getting a cage is that bad But that said any "street" car should get swing-outs. I'll be posting pics of my drag build soon.

SW never made 9's. If your only counting the US then they're only Hal and Threadgill. Aussies have numerous 9sec SC's.

Well get on it If money permits I may be bumping my power up a little, and you know you don't want me to beat you into the 9's

Unfortunately not, I had an engine failure which set me back for a good amount of time. Not to mention I changed my mind several times during the rebuild to have more downtime, lol.


Haha Brett, You might beat me there. I'm still chasing small problems but they are getting less and less.

Would there be any interest in having a Top (X amount) SC300 list put together? I'd be glad to contribute.

I'd like to see some pics of your car as well.

What would be a good number? 10? 25?

If someone wanted to make one for the V8 powered cars that'd be great too, since I'd focus just on the JZ-powered ones here.
