Congrats again Devin on new personal best and yet again another record setting pass! Glad I was there to see it in person!

Correct me if I am wrong but would this be a stock irs 60' record?

Ive been 1.25 60's a few times, and I'm also still stock IRS with coil overs, None the less Devin is a force to be reckoned with, nice work sir.

Congrats! Looks like the quick 16 will be very interesting this year!

I thought your car had a 3000GT/Stealth rear end?

 

[little-razcal]

Unreal. This car is badass and he is one HELL of a driver.

On a T3... What?????

 

[okcpopeman]

Anyone know how much/if he is spraying? Car gets down the track damn good! Congrats Devin.

Pretty sure he was referring to the fact the car isnt a solid axle and retains stock mounting points.

Doesn't matter its not comparing apples to apples. I can fab up a ford 9" IRS that would be dam near unbreakable to put in the car and it wouldn't be comparable with a car that has a factory diff. Its a IRS car still yes but not in the same class once you take the factory one out.

1.2s are impressive in a awd car on any setup but doing it with the factory stuff and in a 5 speed on top of that, Bravo sir,

I think you are right, but John is thinking like I was.

 

[92GSXtacy]

I agree withwith John as well, just offering an explanation to a question.

I thought your car had a 3000GT/Stealth rear end?

yes I have that diff in my car but I still retain 100%of the original stock IRS for a 1g DSM, no bushings have been changed just added coil overs
In no way am I trying to take away from these passes because clearly his car is kicking some serious ass, just try to clarify that there is still some of us rocking the stock set ups.

 

[mattasi]

Haha very nice sir!

Curt ran a 1.28 IIRC back in 2002 or 3 at the shootout. I about shit myself when I saw it. Pretty exclusive club there for 1.2x 60's in "normal" DSMs.

Awesome run. That's absurdly quick, especially for a 5 speed. I can't wait to see what it runs at the Shootout.
