    You have how much invested in that car? 680hp? 10-11's?

    LOL One of the guys in my old college car club in his '98 T/A with 450rwhp (N/A) runs 11s flat....$3k invested

    Somebody earlier beat me to the joke about "400 and 800hp Supras both running 12's"

    That's a dyno queen ... it takes ~400HP in a Fox-Body to run 10s and ~550 HP to run 9s. Having a thousand horsepower runnings low to mid 9s is definitely what I call a dyno-queen.

    This is an interesting thread. A friend of mine, a criminal defense lawyer I know, called a few years back about a client who owed him legal fees. Client had some "souped up" Toyota, I was told.

    The lawyer knew my brother and I collect cars so he asked us whether we wanted to buy the car "cheap". Turned out the car was a Supra, similar to the photo of the one in this thread.

    Good Lord! I could NOT believe how fast this thing was! The owner's girlfriend (owner was in jail), said this car was 700 h.p. This thing was simply wicked! My brother Jay came close to buying the car. The thing was fast, no doubt about it, but it was also a bucket of bolts. You had the sense that the engine was ready to detonate at any time. It had been rode hard and put away wet.

    The thing about Japenese cars is you can modify the snot out of them but it won't matter, they will never have a "soul". My opinion. To each his own.

    But my hat's off to the talented people who transform these cars. They have a passion and they don't have their heads up their arses like some F car and P car owners.

    I want to see you hang with something like a 360CS, or 430 in the twisties. IMHO, that is where it's at. Anyone can put a big, high power motor in a car, throw some slicks on it, and run sub-12s nowadays...

    Used to race my '23 Ford , fiberglass body, tube chasis, big block chevy engine, altered. 650 rwhp. High 8's / 168 mph best. Last time I took it to TWS I finished last doing one lap while everyone else completed all thirty, I just could not get that car to turn and everyone got really pissed when I had to stop at the end of the main straight to repack my dragchute. I actually did have the car and raced it but it stayed where it belonged, drag strip and trailer, and never ventured into territory where it did not belong......

    Now, someone spoke up......BTW I did not run nitro, you can tell by the hp.

    Looks like a nice Supra that should be a lot of fun to tool around in. Just don't pick on someone who can turn a corner. Then you lose.............

    Now, can we put this thread back to bed? I am really surprised it woke up after all this time.

    90KoenigTR, are you related to the Supra kid? I see it was your first post and you are the ne who woke this thread up again.........
