thanks guys. it was fun. this weekend we will probably re-do the runs and get it on camera. I will also get more info on each car. I have also been told that the rx7 owner has been tuning feverishly on the car to try to pull more out of it. the car is built to handle 22 psi, but he doesn't want to take it that high. he just can't get over losing to a stock ls. plus he said he wants some vids showing his awesome flame show during runs. everytime he grabs a gear it shoots about a 3 foot blue flame from the exhaust. should be interesting, and I will be sure to post it up for you guys' enjoyment

I don't know much about RX-7s but a built RX-7 not making enough power to beat a stock Fbody is really weak. The Supra you raced I can understand because its a 7m that weighs about 3800lbs but I would think that a built motor on an RX-7 would make more power.

Good kill though.

Hope that clears some things up.
Guy I ran that made the claim had the rounded Supra, the newer style one. It sounded like he was full of it, and the run down the onramp must not have been a fluke- it must have had 350rwhp and 200 internet whp.

So he had a MKIV Supra (93-98 in the US with the 2JZ). On race gas he can make close to 550bhp but your average BPU (Basic Performance Upgrades or bolt on) Supra would make around 400whp and probably about 350-375whp if you are in California or on 91 octane.
