Too bad we have to shift to 3rd, otherwise it could be faster.

I'd like to try a 4s car, but the STI doesn't really appeal to me looks wise and anything else newer is off the scale cost wise.

Who knows, maybe FI in the future will do the trick? Curious what kind of pass times non extreme setups with stock fuel systems have achieved.
I'm curious... how much do you weigh if you don't mind me asking? I always wondered how much the driver's weight can play into the 0-60 time for cars as light and underpowered as hours.
