im guessing since the GSt coupe should run around a 15.2 or so. Id bet the Spyder would be near a 15.5. yes they got to be slower stock for stock because they are much heavier but dont hold those times to me. I have seen stock GSXs runs 15.1s so id expect near the same from a GSt with a good driver that is

ill throw out my personal **** time, ive only been to the track once n that was before i started my build up n i had a toasted clutch (metal on metal) valve nock so loud you though i spun a rod n zero traction from goin through the water box on crappy wal-mart tires. i have a 97 GS-T coupe n i ran a 15.5 so if i had to guess with a good driver a stock coupse could run 14.5 but for a drop top that extra weight id say a solid 15 is doable

I dont know about 14.5 maybe a high 14 or something. cause stock for stock the GT v6 eclipse is faster than a GST and the GT runs 14.9s-15.2s (fed spec of course)

i dunno what GT your speaking of but i used to eat up the 00-03 GT's like nothing. either way most people get the drop top for the *** factor n the coupe for speed. even tho im only FWD n the awd takes me from the launch i can usually catch up quite easy. its all in preferance. with my new setup my FWD is ganna be pointless on stop light to stoplight races so for that i wish i had AWD but at the track on some DR i think ill be just fine

the best time ive seen a magazine get on a stock 2g gsx was 14.8. usually the gst's are 15.3-15.4 the launch makes these cars fast in the qm because third gear in a stock dsm is horrible

stock for stock a fed spec GT eclipse is faster than a GST. fed specs run in the high 14s stock with a good driver. when it comes down to FWD drag racing it is a drivers race if the cars are remotly equal.

and yes BFG comp T\As work wonders LOL my buddy was hitting 1.8 60fts in his RX7 with them I was shocked since AWD gets the 1.7 1.8 area
