Fastest SVX ever for 1/4 mile? Anyone know?

Just was wondering what the fastest SVX to do the quarter mile is on record here on the boards.

Correct. Walter (Poweredx2) officially has the fastest SVX around...

Holy sh* those are some impressive times. I didn't realize how many moderately quick SVXs were running the streets now.

Ho humm... maybe someday I'll own this one again!

I smashed Poweredx2's 60' time in April- pulled several 1.7's. I'm pretty sure we could have run 12's that day if we could have gotten the 4EAT to do the 2-3 shift properly.

Doesn't Poweredx2 have a FWD car?

My 13.8 pass was on street rubber with AWD.

Still the only one competing under $2000!

I'm thinking of putting some decent race rubber on it and giving it another try. We've also considered putting in a 5-spd. I'm pretty sure that would pull 11's, just not sure I want to put the effort in right now.

Yeah, we prefer under a grand . Might see if she's in the 13s next week but I'd be too bored with straight line driving so I need to have someone who can launch drive the car. A 15.4 isn't bad for fwder that didn't wanna shift into second and was on the worst street rubber known to man.

So you gonna take it to the NC subaru challenge or just concede to the fastest SVX racecar now .

Hey Benebob- Did you really build it for $1K?

When is the NC Subaru Challenge? Are they running drags, or autocrossing?

Concede...Yeah, right! I'll be bragging on this one little stupid victory to my Great-great grandkids!
