Default Video at the strip. Supra Nationals. Question inside.

The Video first:
Super Supra Nationals

The Question:
Do you guy's have reliability issues like these Supra's have? I mean seriously, how does something like that happen to that turbo?

Yea, I know what you mean.

Peter Blach organises the event and puts on a great show for everybody. It's too bad Ryan broke though. Ryan and Nero are pretty funny in this vid, but without them the fun is like .... I dunno though, a guy I call Lo was there, he told me about the whole thing. I wasn't at this meet.

The feel of the vid isn't A+ quality though, your right about the, "everybody has something to prove" comment. That's what it seems like. I like the smaller meets, like rolling about 10 or 15 deep and just going out to have a good time like you guy's do all the time.

They seemed so content on beating one another their busting up their car's instead of having a good time. You get beat, it's just that, you get beat; but don't destroy your car over it. Seriously.

Too much cockfighting. I wonder how much those suckers would put out N/A. Not trying to start a flamewar at all, Im just curious.

some ungodly vehicles there. people can say all they want but they're versatile and not everyone and their momma has one.
And to me anyhow, they sound awesome, very distinct sound...can't just pop a certain muffler on something and have it sound similar.
and that turbo spool mixed in with it...

Thats ricer talk? For wondering how an engine would perform minus forced induction? Riiiight.

Forgive me for wanting to know the power of the engine before a fuckload of boost.
