Sean,
I dont know where you get the info about 1k plus vehicles were struggling to reach 200....
1 - I went to Texasmile last march with my old car that make 1130 WHP on KILL MODE. NOW I did not run it at Texasmile on KILL MODE...... The car was on low boost and making about 950 whp. I only make two passes for the whole day. First pass, i were doing 190mhp at the 3/4 mile mark and let off since i knew that i will be deep in the 200mhp by the mile mark. Dont want to be in the 200 mhp and going all out before checking out my tune on the first pass. Second pass, so the plan is to take it easy off the line and get on it at the 1/2 mark on 4th gear and passed the 1mile mark on 5th. My calculation is pretty good, i made the 201.75mph by the mile. Here are some video of my second run

2 - Now about Kareems car, with the old set up ( it made 850-900 whp boost only) it should make 200 mph in a mile.
3 - In my opinion with the aerodynamic of a supra, a 850 whp supra can make 200mph by the mile.
I am planning to go to Texasmile next week with my new car and set the record on the STREET CLASS again
I would like to see some high HP Porsche in the 8XXwhp at the texasmile even this year.

I was at Tommy Bahn's shop yesterday and a couple of Tx mile vets where there... they were very interested (to put it politely) in seeing an 830 rwhp vehicle get to 210 when their 1K plus hp vehicles where struggling to reach 200.
Apparently ricer math has now afflicted German auto's.

After a bunch of research, which involved a lot of expensive computers and very intelligent individuals, we have calculated my Standing Mile speed as followed
Top that!
Top that!
My tuner's evo2 ran 215.xx last time in texas in the street class. car runs 8s in a 1/4 but he says it gets really hard once u hit 200. HP is not everything. BTW, he dynoed 900 rwhp at 2500 lbs.

Chris, are you going? Peter, I can not go to the Event, I am already obligated at the Texas Jam.. Next month? Marek, what do you think your car would do if you let those GT3 cams breath? Marek, you have a dream of an engine.. you are a true mutant LOL half turbo half GT3.. I still think the 220 mark will be broken.
