Mine was full weight DD. It def had more in it than the 10's it ran. We didn't even have plans to go to the track the one day we took it. It was on a "street tune". One of our drift events got canceled, so we showed up on a whim. I think it would have def gone 9's on the same set up with just some more preparation to actually go to the track. MAYBE high 8's with some nicer suspension. Oh and we were on Nitto streets, not slicks....and stock transfer case. We would have broke something if we pushed it too much, for sure.

But no Shep wasn't in an Evo. It was a Talon. I just thought since like the R&D has already been proved on those engines, it's not as big of a deal. BUT an 8 sec, DD is sick. Oh but, it's an RS, those things are way light. Still sick though.

OH and Shep has all kinds of Buschur parts on his car, that's the other reason I asked.
