Can we not all agree that those kinds of cars were designed and built to be economical, even the ones that are fast were engineered to be fast on a budget right.No, I don't think we can agree on that. Sorry. S2000's, Evo's, STi's, WRX's, SRT4's, any of the Mazdaspeed cars, Supra's, 300zx's, etc... were designed to provide maximum performance in a small package, much like the Mustang, Cuda, GTO, Camaro, etc... of days past, and I think you'd be pretty hard pressed to call them "Econoboxes" for their time. An "Econobox" would more fit with anything Geo made, the Honda civics, Kia's, most Hyundai's, etc... I'd love to know how a $35k car can be considered an economy/budget car that is fast. $35k is a pretty serious chunk of change last I checked. But lets see...econo boxes normally (at least in my mind) come factory without Powersteering, Power locks, power windows, AC, CD players, sunroofs, awd, etc...
So please, don't tell me my car is an econobox.

k back on topic...i Hope to be running low 12's with the sti and somewhere in 11's with the bike.

As I posted earlier, high 11's is the goal this year....unless I go bigger on the motor.

I should be in the mid 12's.

I'd be happy with breaking into the 12's. Hell, if I actually learn to launch and cut the '60 down maybe deeper. 2.2-2.5 '60 on slicks is just embarassing. :icon_scratch:Earl, you need some new slicks....that alone would help you. Those slicks that you had were used and abused.
