Scott,
	I just checked with the Talon home page, and it seems they've 
been busy this summer.  Dave Buschur ran a 11.12 @ 123 mph at Norwalk on 
7-12-96  without nitrous!  His car is a highly modified '91 Talon TSi.  
Buschur has written a FAQ for the homepage that shows how to get into the 
13s for less than a grand with a Talon/Eclipse/Laser.
