The Supra kicks *** and would easily take your lunch money. Get over it guys.
See now there is all of this confusion for nothing. Let me try to clear it up right quick. My comments were backing up the first quoted post and the same with the second while also responding to it. No one ever said the supra was slow or that its shabby for making the power it makes. We were giving you another perspective based on people who actually attends the events but at the same time not putting any of the cars down because they are all sick. Once again yes either supra would probably murder me or the other vette and who ever else in this section. Hopefully that helps if not not sure how else I could explain it.

I didn't go down. I had last minute build changes. I'm still yet to figure out why the TT c6 @15psi ran the way it did.

+1 There had to be over 50 cars at the event making over 1000whp at some capacity.

Yeah somewhere around there. This years event was bigger and badder than ever. Large amounts of 1,000HP+ vehicles.

That looked like a lot of fun. LOTS...like the old days down here of street racing....just not with all that power,..but close. Good ****.

As far as everyone here claiming dyno this, dyno that...sure, it's a good estimate of what the car is making. Fact of the matter is, dynos lie. True power is measured in trap speeds. All a dyno number takes is a properly located wheel on a roller...and you could net LOTS more power. Any of those cars could be making more or less what they're claiming...easily. Anyways, good video.

Cars are owned by friends of mine, supra's are gorgeous and the owner's are really cool people, it's a shame they don't come out to our local meets much anymore!

Both of those cars are from Orlando @RSP, Grey Supra makes 1000hp at 5700 rpm and continues upward until 8k or so. We all know dyno numbers don't determine who fast a car is on the street. Geo and Trevor were kill'n it up there. Lots of 1200+ got wrecked by these two.

I love Supras. If I could afford one, I would probably have it sitting in the driveway. That 'Vette did really well considering it was down about 200HP. Not bad! Great video too.

That car looked like it was doing a lot of dancing around. Traction issues?
