Isn't that the yellow one with the huge fenders? I think I saw that in a magazine once.
Yes, there are definitely some VERY prepared cars in SM, but you shouldn't let that throw you off. We've all seen what a mostly stock civic with a good driver behind the wheel is capable of. CivicSiRacer comes to mind... Likewise, theres an STS '89 Si in RMD/Colo Region that consistently runs times that would put it mid/upper pack in SM. Once last summer, that same guy ran a the FTD of any non-mod/fiberglass V8 special. I think a well balanced honda with a decent powerplant and an LSD is a pretty appropriate SM car as long as the driver is up to the task. Heck, thats what I'm planning to do.
