Damn, you could tell when the boost kicked in because he walked his *** afterwards. Too bad I can't find a supra that I could race and find out the outcome.. All the ones I know have 800+++++++

This one seemed to do alright:

Not bad for rolling on large rims with low profile tires...not exactly a true dig, but pretty close.

guys you have to accept the fact that supra's are probably the best cars to mod, but yea if you dropped a single turbo into that zo6 it would of been a smoke. I like both cars A LOT but id have to say that supra was pretty ****** badass haha

Seemed to me they weren't even raceing...i think the Supra just pulled up beside him twice and then accelerated away and got it on tape to post it. Like stated before there were no honks or any other form of communication between the 2 drivers.

didnt look like much of a race to me either. a supra putting down 536 against that zo6 should have been WAY closer. either way both cars are awesome. I have seen numerous 550 rwhp stangs get beat as bad by 500 rwhp vettes. definitely the altitude made a dif. high altitude with turbos = good times.

Maybe so, but I will take good ol' (mostly) American built performance (including much better handling stock for stock, even on lesser tires) anyday over the "Nippon supacar". Besides, I know it's subjective opinion and all, but I think the Vette looks 10,000 x better than the TOYota. Of course this goes contrary to the majority of this board who "transfer" good looks onto them solely due to their power/speed/"modability". (i.e.; all of a sudden, a high 9s-low 10s big single starts to "look" great). But it's funny how just because of the power/speed "modability" of the TOYs, everyone on here cuts them soooo much slack when the owners "rice them out" with mile high biplane wings, various body kits, 500 lbs. of "I.C.E.", unpainted/mismatched carbon fiber body parts, funky riceboy paint jobs, etc., etc. I don't get it.

I'm in the "I like Supras just as much as I like Z06s" camp but the video was bogus. First "race" was a joke (no honk, no indication, the Supra just took off) and the second race was a bit more of a race before the Z06 let out but still no indication of anything to start the race. Weaksauce.

On a straight up run the Supra should walk away from him pretty good with that kind of power but the way they ran was a joke. I'd like to see a more evenly started race with both drivers giving their cars all they had so we could see how fast a 530rwhp Supra will pull from a stock Z06. Still wouldn't be much of a race but would be more interesting to watch than that.

That video Meents posted was pretty damn sweet thought. That Supra looked NICE!

What would you expect from a car thats in its sweet spot and putting down 100 more to the wheels?
the vette isn't exactly that easy to launch either. only major help a supra needs to hook is tires. i've seen supra's with stock suspension pull low 1.4 60ft's and once even a 1.38, but that was with 28 inch et drags hehe.

that Z06 should pull that supra. I ran neck to neck with a 450rwhp supra T-67 on my stock C5 Z06...get a better driver in the vette that actually knows what hes doing.

If they were really racing, that Supra had 1000hp. The only time I ever pull cars that hard is when I'm messing with a 4-banger like a ?????. From that short footage, the Supra would have pulled 20 cars from 50-150. They didn't race, the ZO6 wasn't trying, or the ZO6 didn't know how to drive.... or wasn't awake at all. lol. I'm not saying he wouldn't have lost, but not like he was getting pulled in that short 2 second interval.

Hey Nate, why don't you try and find a video where the z06 is actually trying! Ha I'm just kidding with you, but it really doesn't look like he was pushing.
