What's everyone hoping to run this year (2006) ?
Somewhere in the 8's is the "goal" for this year. Although that is the goal i would still be happy to end up in the 9.1-9.0 range. I'm shooting to be the fastest street RX7 which if i'm not mistaken is faster than a 9.1??
I think with a raceweight of 2350-2400lbs and about 600rwhp i should be pretty close. Remember though i'll be auto before anyone says that it can't be done. I want to put down 600 through the auto so if that happens then i don't see a problem with high 8's to low 9's.
Time will tell......

The auto is definately the way to go! Are you still planning on running the Mazda Automatic?
not sure. i went 10s on 23psi last year, but now i am finishing up my 20b with a gt42r turbo and an automatic trans. car weighs 2600lbs, i need to get more weight out, but if i can get this thing tuned for 700plus and get it down, it should be pretty quick

Mazda auto all the way! Parts are starting to come together and i've got 5 sitting here already. Can't have too many extra parts. I still need to get a couple more motors. I've got 2 extra's but want another 1......and 2 would be even better. That way i won't have any excuses to not finish a race.

Anything in the 12's @ 115mph+ for my FC would be nice.
Later this year I hope to get into the 10s@130+ in my first gen, but traction issues will most likely put it into the 11s or 12s. It will be my first time dragging a high powered FI RWD car, who knows what will happen with 400+rwhp and 2200lbs.
Hopefully I can work my OTHER FC into the 15s (NA) hahahahahahaha.

9 second street car wouldn't be a bad thing either.....
