Went to NOPI Today.. I saw 2 Toyota Solaras decked out in full tub and all with big turbos.. One ran a 7.11 at 190mph and the the other 7.13 at 191mph.. These were back to back runs..

Re: Went to NOPI Today.. I heard they were both at the nopi show here at Va Motorsports Park, about 3-5 weeks ago. Heard one of them ate a motor that weekend too. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> I bet it won't cheap.

Re: Went to NOPI Today.. The way they moved down the track like it was nothing is what impressed me.. If you saw them parked and looked at their setup you would have never thought they were capable of 190mph passes in 95 degree weather..
Re: Went to NOPI Today.. Wow, boosted cars running almost the same times as N/A Pro Stock cars... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
