They are often low mph in the 10's if the owner drops significant weight in the car. I know one guy who lowered weight by 300 lbs by removing nonsense in the engine bay alone... let alone ripping out his interior. AWD helps

Still, the joke about DSM's is that for every DSM on the street, there are 3 in the workshop. Not terribly reliable when running bigger power
