rude awakening....

i got plastered.... basically


me vs. 1994 toyota supra with 610rwhp... t-78 from a roll, bit of an overkill but anyway heres the car (BTW it was for shits and giggles) the supra figures

keep in mind i raced him before he got his t-88H and nitrous

i went to the center with my car, (no hood, it pulled a tommy boy on me on the highway @ 60mph) and saw my freinds supra there, havent really had a chance to talk to him much but we just shot the shit for a bit and decided for a shits and giggles run from a slow roll. (i will upload the videos once my boy gets his firewire in) we went from 20 and i hit 2nd perfect, he was still behind me , 3rd was a clean hit, but then by 70 all i heard was the loudest most obnoxious spool in the world, and from there the "pulling" or should i say RUNNING began... about 3 city blocks to 120... if not more... anyway we did it again with the same result and on the way back i got up along side of him @80 mph and just hit it, and actually held him off until my 5th @ 120... then he just pulled me... i wish i could upload it, the vid is AWESOME!...


anyway i havent been here for awhile and have had some pretty dank races let me just list my recent updates since i got it running again.....


more tuning
fireball ignition w/ rev limiter and coil w/ plat +4 plugs and splitfire wires
windage tray
new oil pan
new tranny mount
auburn pro differential w/ 31 spline moser axles
ACTUAL REAR BRAKE LINES!!! WOOT~
driveshaft safety loop
adjusted suspension components
i also took a nut out of my transmission that fell off my shifter LOL! keeps me from missing gears !

best race to date was a 1979 monte carlo w/ a 350 with heads cam and slicks that pull the front tires off the ground, he runs 12.90's all day and took me to 70 but i ran past him after that... i need to start collecting this videos, any way good runs, be safe all

my winter project starts soon so its going off the road, i already got the motor its just a matter of pulling it apart and putting it back together, something to the tune of 347 whipplecharged....

lol fake dyno chart thats good bro i know the car, ive seen the dyno in his possession, he showed it to me... basically its anything short of being there myself, if you want ill ask his email, but trust me 606rwhp is being conservative...

lol my first post in like 5 months and its already probably gonna end up locked. great way to start off again eh?

I myself have seen the car in person too....It's insane. The dyno is no joke and this is a reputable shop around here. This is the real deal.

that's awesome you even stayed with him that long. how much better do you feel knowing you spent probably a 1/4 of what he did. those guys at pruven have the money and the shop to do the work, we don't. i wanna see the vids and while greg is getting those on, i still would like to see cobra races. keep buggin him, i dont get to race anybody now.

oh and dan, theres some homo at westconn in a purple LT1 z28 who thinks he is god and revved his engine at me in the rotten subaru when i was in the parking lot. soooo gay. i think u need to teach him a lesson.

The links don't work for me but I'll say this...there's no shame in losing to a respectable car. If you'd lost to a Hyundai I'd school you big time but a 600rwhp Supra...there's no shame in that unless you're making 700rwhp.
