too bad joe didn't make it. Last I talked to him he was planning on it, but since he moved to NC, the GTTT hasn't been moving around too much! I would of loved to see what he would have done. I am pretty sure he would have shattered the Supra's speeds.

As much as I respect Joe's car, I do not think that would have been the case. I have a feeling the car to beat Tommy's speed will be another Silver Supra from Texas next year.

Not only do they have more power available next year, they also can still work wonders with the sticky tire and some tweaking to the boost control table in the lower gears for traction. Some quick aero mods such as a full under-tray,etc and you'll see a few extra MPH next year. Tommy stepped it up huge from last year to this year, I'd expect the same next year as well.

wow, I was just saying guys. I am not his nutswinger, nor do I really give a ****. But now that Joe's car has been drastically changed, and from what I understand is making near 1900 Wheel HP with a pretty intricate Boost control system, I think it would have been fine. Don't dog it til ya know the truth. I have witnessed the car hit 200+ in far less than one mile, that is for sure

Tommy could have hitten 230mph easily, it ran 228MPH while drifting side to side at the beginning of the run. Good suspension tweaking and aero 235MPH+ is obtainable. The Supra platform though it is dated it is one of the best platforms in the world for the aftermarket! The drivetrain setup is so good we put it in our custom cars!
