Default Anyone seen this car in the Katy area?

It's a silver/charcoal metallic turbo Celica I believe but it looks a hell of a lot like a Supra. No badges except the Toyota on the trunk lid, medium rise spoiler, mad psi turbo, spray, ram air hood of some kind, and some charcoal 5 star rims, and the license plate read: SEAFSH.

Short story: he pulled up next to me tonight when I had a car full of family from out of town so I got on it just a little to shut him up but surprisingly he spooled up and sprayed with the quickness and passed me. Again, I didn't give it my all, floored it out of my power band and it didn't down shift from OD but none the less, I DID NOT expect this fool to jump out in front of me.

Anyone seen this dude?

I really want to find this guy and race him straight up with no one in my car and see what happens. It's quick as hell no doubt, but we'll see...... Maybe I'll get the run on video if it happens.

His turbo's scream at idle, his cams are loud, and it sounds well tuned. No one's seen this dude?

Well well.. ask him if he wants to race the blue Z28 he "ran" last night. Set us up!

He sprays right? Cuz his car was next to mine for a sec and then he jumped out with turbo's already spooled, and it made a very peculiar hissing sound.......

I think i've seen him on mason a few times. I don't keep track of the fart can cars i see. Seems like I need to hurry up with the v6 (tranny swaping) and do some crusing and see what he's got....

Its a Supra. Saw it the other day at a local shop. Remember trying to figure out the plate. Not sure what all it done to it. Some big HP comes out of that shop.

Could be After I posted that I got to thinking about it. I only saw it from the front. When he left I was looking at the plate. It didn't have the rear wing like alot of the Supras.
