Default Finally got into the 7s!!
I went to the track last friday to get a few runs in with the new motor and I ran a [email protected] on the first pass. We put on some 29.5" slicks and being so tall, I cut a tire on that pass on a small bracket inside the fenderwell, so we were done for the night. Yesterday we went back out and ran a [email protected] right off the trailer. I think the car has a 7.8xx or so in it, but we ran out of clutch last night. Now I can officially say I have the fastest 6 speed street car in the world. We made some changes to the car and I hope also to run 245mph in the standing mile in March..

"...and on the 7th day, God created the JZA80 Toyota Supra."

No other car has done what this car does, especially considering it uses the OEM block, OEM head, OEM trans, and OEM IRS. Simply amazing. Makes me proud to be a fellow owner...
