He finally did it and in fine style too! Let's see a unibody Honda run an 8.8 now!
It's coming to that time of the year when everyone break or set new records!

Sean also backed it up with a 8.9 and won the quick class as well. He had a 1.3 '60.

I guess that rally transmission from a EVO solved his shifting problems, hehehe.

From what I hear Sean is still using a stock DSM tranny.

I know Sean personally and have known him and Terry since they started Extreme out of their garage around 8yrs. ago. I have to give them props. They went to a multimillion $$ business in a very short time.
BTW....He does not use a stock drivetrain. At one time he used a NASCAR drivetrain, and now he uses the rally one. The stock **** on DSM's won't even hold up on a few 11 sec passes. I know, I used to have one.

I believe he's using the drivetrain from the Evolution that's prepped by Ralliart, Mitsubishi's rally division!

I work partime for the machine shop that sponsors sean glazar http://www.jacksonautomachine.com . Believe it or not he now sponsors my RX7. I dyno there about once a week it seems like, and I have helped him on many occasions and I can tell you this his drive line is 100% stock. He has tried many other compinations with no success. I was there the night before the race and no what is in the car. Can't give you numbers but I can tell you this if I told you, you would call me a liar

Stock as in, stock clutch, flywheel, etc? Or stock as in same stock DSM tranny?

How can you say it's stock, when there are others that say it's the EVO tranny? Now who are we to believe? And please show us a picture of your EXTREMEMOTORSPORTS sponsored RX-7.

Stock as in stock tranny. As far as who to believe that is up to you I can only tell you I had it in my hands plenty of times I rarely post to forums I just thought I could help clear the air. As far as my extrememotorsports(sounds funny doesn't it) , jackson auto machine, and product engineering sponsored rx7 which is in the chasis shop getting prepared for next year hint hint you can see picks and a dyno sheet in its old form when it was only running turbo at http://www.sarx7.com just click on 500rwhp to the right Yes you are correct sean has been doing alot of tuning lately on many different cars Loius toyota (not jamacain) Howard (nitrous only civic) and my Rx7 all of witch are getting motor work at http://www.jacksonautomachine.com and tuning at extreme.
