So there is this show on speed tv called pass time. They host it at the new Zmax drag strip near Charlotte NC where guys ask you questions about your car and then they see who can guess the time. Closest one wins.

They snickered when these two "Fast and the Furious" cars pull up and completely underestimate the power of the 4G63 and AWD. The 92 Talon was actually my old car. I sold it to Jay probably 6 or 7 years ago. He's done a 4G64 build plus a manual to auto swap. Very talented guy for sure.

yeah i watched that episode and when the 91 eclipse said e85 and the other guy said he's made multiple passes i knew thew would represent DSM's well. two of the contestants said 14sec times LOL

They had to know a little about dsm's because once they got in their cars one of the guys said "well, they both started up so thats a good sign" :lol:

.

In all honesty though I think they said that because one of the guys had 200k on his car and still beats the crap out of it.

Obviously the YouTube/Camcorder quality isn't high, but my combined time would have been about 26.00sec. Two sub 12 second passes is a nice thing to represent the DSM community. I liked the comment about having the sun roof open and then commenting that he has a sticker. Nice cars.

I'm really surprised the "expert" was so far off, did he fail to hear the size of the turbos and that one was a stroker?

I watched this one last week and I was screaming Yeah GO DSMs, GO YOU SOB!!!!!!!!!!,lol. Those hill billie rednecks didn't have a clue and them laughing at the starting line, they weren't laughing after the passes were they,lol. They represented the DSMers real well and only if they were both in the 10 sec passes would made it even sweeter but there was a "700hp" big block camaro before the 2 1gs raced that did like a 12sec or something like that, what a joke,lol. DSM FTMFW :twisted:
