Why would they not be happy? The worlds fastest IRS 10.5 Import vs the worlds fastest 10.5 car period. That's a hell of a showdown. Neither shop has anything to hang their heads about as they are both leaders in what they do.

The Titan guys are standup people. Nero from Titan even bought the small group of us dinner one night.

Couldn't agree with you more. I've had multiple conversations with Gary the driver of the copper supra. One of the nicest guys I've met.

That's the first time I've ever seen a Supra lift the front tires off the ground. I'd love to have a car as fast as some of those. I'd also love to be able to control the thing at WOT. My Saturn is getting boring, but I'm still practicing banging through the gears.

I was corrected below I forgot that it's a stock style suspension camaro. I believe LMR has done 7.5's@190ish. Titan has run a best of 7.71 on the stock IRS and 10.5 tires. So basically you were looking at 2 of the fastest stock style suspension cars just one was live axle and the other is IRS. To my knowledge nobody has gone faster then titan with IRS.

Juice96Z: Thanks for pointing that out I forgot that it's a stock style suspension car.

saw the video, I can't believe some of the ignorant comments being made there. Do those import guys really think the supra was coming back to win?
