The list for top three Houston cars would be Tag, Lupe, and of course Mr. Nasty Tommy. There is another white one that has run high 7s or low 8s. This car is own by Ross. It was at Supra Nats last year.

60-130 in 7 days after riding to the top of Everest! 
Actually the white 8second Supra belongs to Ross Biard and he is from Dallas. Although the car has been in Houston at events. My brother has told me that he saw it run like an 8.6 1/4 mile and it drove TO AND FROM the track!

That makes sense....Ross' car. I guess it was his automatic Supra... He has a 900+ rwhp black 6-speed as well. That white auto is a 160 mph + 1/4 car...VERY strong.
As for Houston...that is a TOUGH question to answer. Mostly b/c what I consider fastest includes: a car that is consistent and reliable, with no issues; a set-up conducive to highway racing on the street; and a driver that knows how to extract 110% out of the Supra on the highway.
I can't think of one car in Houston that has all three to be honest. Tag is one HELL of a driver but i think he has run into some issues with the car in the past. He has a stout street set-up....Sebastien's car is set-up right, but he himself will admit that he cannot extract 110% out of that car. Tommy's car doesn't even have a running drivetrain in it right now, I think it's in pieces.
I would say that Ross' car is a prime example of a reliable, fast, easy to drive highway car. BUT, he is not a Houston guy...
