both cars are street cars... the black car could be driven to the races too if he wants but the car has under 10,000 miles i believe and the owner prefers to keep it mint... any car can be driven on pump gas if you stay out of boost... both are great cars but i already smell the excuses coming from the porsche camp.. :lol:

Credit is due where its due, there is NO other car like that period.

No excuses, the car is running phenomenally.

You know it, I love and I emphasize LOVE Supras. But Supra's are a dime a dozen running in the 800rwhp+ bracket.

thats a good thing though.. encourages competition, makes parts readily available..

high horsepower porsches are getting to be a dime a dozen these days... now if only they were easier on my wallet..

if i wanted to be unique, i'd do an 800whp elise... hint, hint

to beat 228.6 in the tx mile and to run 8.3 at the drag strip...

we will see what the supra does at the drag strip at the supra meet in vegas oct 2-4 so just a couple of days...

This supra will be #1 in the mile this year


as for dyno #'s...i believe somewhere 1200-1300

I would like to see That "street Supra" running around in texas with a parachute strapped to his *** and get the Texas highway patrols responce. I like to see it go to a inspection station in Houston and get a inspection sticker. I'd like to see it stop from 226.mph @ the texas mile without it. But this is a street car!

The fast Supra's feel belittled by a white 964 turbo so they feel the need to flatter themselves
