I love supras, but they're overrated.

Awesome win to the vette, both are nasty fast cars though.
That supra has twin hks gt turbos and makes more power under the curve than that supercharged 370ci vette. Im just making it clear

If you can't put the power to the road, you lose. It takes more than a dyno sheet to win races.

right , dont race if you cant lol

one of the facts- the supra guy was so confident that he will win lol ,and the vette wont hold 100 meters with him. but they went all the way to 1KM, and the supra couldnt catch up lol.

It's true that twins will be better for evening out the powerband, and it wouldn't be a fair comparison twin turbo vs single turbo on different motors. I'd like to see the graphs though, I'm not going to take your word for it. Two many factors with turbo sides.

But Single turbos on both with the same peak, the larger displacement (all things being the same) is going to make more power over the power band.

Tell me though, how is that the vette hooked for the first 200 and the supra didn't? Are you saying the vette had a better setup/possible driver?

Sounds like it to me.

MKS needs to get over it. If your spinning you aren't winning. Sounds like the Supra needs some suspension and tires. Congrats to the Vette owner.

sounds like a personal problem, if the supra guy cant get his **** to hook, hes gonna spin and lose everytime. thats not an excuse in any race. whats next, he left his traction control ON.
congrats to the vette

Vette is the supras killer lol.

I want to go to Kuwait to one of these events! Good race I have beaten people with more power for simular reasons and also got to use what you have to its full potiential! I was jumping out on people at the TX2K9 events by 6-10 cars on the take off because of the power under the curve and the other guys were trying to play catch up the whole time LOL!

I think in this day an age of performance, just about everyone can make big power. Now the guys with the better ET's (or winning street races) are the ones that have figured out how to put it down the best.

Performance is a always a package in my opinion, and too much power where you cant lay it down is an improper package, which is why I personally like centrifugals over turbo's on the street. Sometimes less is more, and sometimes... ya just lost!

Still an impressive car though, cant take that away from him.
