LMAO...go read the "Hot Rod" mag yourself. You will not only fine custom italian seats, but a complete custom stereo to go with the rest of the stock interior and stock suspension. Minus the coil-overs and half shafts. Oh and fyi, the viper that you saw in the video...ya, he is the one that ran marko's supra...heads up, in texas. He laid down a 8.20 @ 176mph. As far as drag radials go, he puts on standard rubber when he takes it out to dinner with the rest of us mortals. So, hanger-on'er, you were saying?

i knew what the viper ran. his 8.20 was in qualifying. once eliminations started he never made a pass under power. i never found out why though. both his and marko's cars are sweet no doubt. i also concur with u on ur other post. the 7.80 by the supra in this vid..is not impressive at all. specially when compared to marko's car...titan's car...and msp's car.

Markos supra does not run 8's on Pump gas though.. that is what SuperTrooper is trying to say..

it is the PUMP GAS DRAGS..

markos supra needs C-16 to run in his car so he can boost it to its potential.. on 93 octane and that high of boost his **** would detonate and blow the **** up

I saw Marko run in person and talked to him for a few minutes this past weekend at the scandalous street wars in Phx.

His car looks insane going down the track...I've seen tons of 6/7/8 second passes, but after the 1/8 it looks like markos car can just pull and pull and pull.

I have lots of video that i need to upload but my camera is being retarded.

Saad didn't do too great, broke a rear U joint, got that fixed etc..His best pass was a 10.2 I believe @ mid 140s

Mr. Woon Set a new record for 6spd Supras, running 9.21@159...Pretty impressive for a 6spd.

As for the Woon vs. Saad, Woon called Saad out in front of a bunch of people only for Saad to back down.

Marko was running VERY good, running mid 8s @ 160+

It was a fun event, there wasn't a ton of people there...But the quality of cars there were TOP NOTCH...Fastest street cars around were there...

They will be holding the Event out here in Phx again next year, but about a month earlier to avoid the 160* track temps that we were fighting all day.

yeah i read an entire thread about the saad saad woon thing on supra forums. i can't say anything about saad's character but he sucks as a driver. dunno if he's ever run a 9 before. woon use to beat saad when woon had less then 1000rwhp and saad had more then 1000. nough said on that one. i just want them to have an event in houston.
