I'm running high 9's (only vid I have is 10.17) with my very simple set up. I daily drive but not when the snow is deep. I get 25 mpg on the highway if I behave. I have no A/C but do have full interior, dual 10" woofers that I don't take out, and a 6 point cage I welded in place.
The set up is a $1500 short block, bunch of used engine parts with a baby cam & turbo.

good question, lately my excuse is that its clean, and since its so cold out most days its not good weather to be washing it every week. when its nice out like saturday for example i was def. rocking it.
also keep in mind that the typhoon is quite formidable from a stop
and gets more races

I don't daily drive mine but I drive it maybe 5k a year (drove it to work today) Drive it on trips. And I have gone 10.5@136mph full weight and AC. Its not that hard. I could daily drive my car if I had to I drove it for 2 weeks earlier this year when the trans went out in my truck but I don't like to drive it more than I have to.
im not FI.. but im hoping for a 10.9.. realistically im a 11.1 car... N/A.. drive it about 50-60 miles a day..

Yup..I drive my car about 2x a week when its nice out.She runs 10.16's and a best of 10.07.Full AC/heat and the whole nine.She could hit 9's with a better driver.Still haven't got my hole shot to a science,but who cares.Car rides like stock till the psi kicks in.
The RX7 is a daily in the summer, though I don't drive it if it's really nasty out, it's perfectly capable of it (I drive the BMW when it's crappy out, or if I feel like being topless <- the car...).
It should knock down mid/low 10's pretty easily. Gotta love turbos, lots of power without nasty cams and 7500 RPM heads...

Some nice set-ups here!
I don't daily drive mine, actually haven't even driven it since spring due to tranny swap funds...but I once did and definitely could now (once back together) if I stopped making excuses.
I am hoping to get into the 9's on stock engine minus cam once I get a good converter in the car. It does have a/c and is fuller than stock weight I'd say with rollbar, boxed subframes, 12 bolt, etc. Only thing I don't have in the car is the spare and jack.

While not as impressive as some above, mine's in the 10's with a TTi street kit, stock bottom end, a/c, cruise, 3840 lbs without me in it, drive it all the time. Heck even pull the boats to the lake with it. "Why" you ask? Because I can.
