Um...those are the times for the convertable z24, which is a considerable amount heavier than the standard.


400 lbs more than what demon quoted for a non vert z24... and for every 100lbs that is .1sec so take 16.8 to 16.4 still not even close to the 15's demon is claiming.... ooh and they beat the crap out of the cars to get the times they get with them.... 96 car and drivers said my MTX Zetec contour runs 16.9 STOCK BTW.... and there are only 4 zetec owners on here in the 16's sleeper (off the bottle), me, d davis, and hector. 3 MTXs with mods and 1 ATX with mods.

2003 Subaru WRX some mods Even if you don't have the answer, you certainly have to admire the problem. aka ZetecRacing
