He used to street race the hell out of it. It was on display at PRI last month and the car really is impressive, far from a race car and it runs the number. The only bad thing though if that power was in a real chasis that thing would really fly. Still amazes me how they get all that power from a 6 cyl.
All the Chicago street racing people hang off this guy's nuts, they think he pees champagne. the car is quick I've seen vids, it launches hard.
i think the guy has a lot of money he boosts over 50 psi I heard and he's not afraid to blow it up. wish i was loaded like that.

To run 40psi+ like that his ducting is bolted together, normal clamps don't work at that level.
Lot of Chicago street racers do swing from his nuts so it can get pretty crazy.

I've seen a lotta videos of this car.....and they are very impressive. A car in the 3700-3800 range full interior running mid 8's is unreal. I dont see why everyone will try to dog this achievment. Are you running mid 8's in your STREET car? 
Yeah, its a Supra, but GOOD GOD, look at that number. I'm guessing he'll hit low 8's possibly a 7.99 in 2005. If he'd take some weight out of the thing, it'd really fly.

i dont doubt the car obviously.. but the way it was dyno'd leaves room for lots of question.
he had people in the back.. that means that they allready experienced or were planning on some wheelspin... looking at the tires i dont see any way it could hook up 1400rw but i'd love to be proved wrong.
if the tires spin it will sport a nice big horsepower spike...(from experience) i have a feeling that they knew it and thats why he dyno'd it that way.. to hit the tires really hard... i could be completely wrong too.... if they posted up a graph with torque and there is no discontinuity then its legit by me.
