When i ran you, my car was untuned at wastegate and you only beat me by a fender length because you have a great launch thanks to your all wheel drive. So basically, at my ever worst, you beat me by a fender length at your best. Now that i have my car tuned, new tranny and 6 speed rear end and a set of drag radials(Since i ran you with street tires), you can bet im gonna try to race you next time so enjoy your shallow victory while you can.
Ok, for everyone else. Just because a car has high horse power, does that make it a Dyno Queen? So i guess that means that a Mustang or Camaro or Viper or any other car that weighs as much as a supra with 600+ Hp is a dyno queen too. Supras are dyno queens...hummm. So i guess if i was going down the street in my 680 hp supra and i pulled next to an R1 Bike......theres no way i would be able to beat it according to the all knowing Tampa Racing peeps??? Wow what a coinsidence...i have won against an R1 and a TL1000 and an gsxr1000r geez i guess all those videos on the internet are all fake since a dyno queen can only put power on a dyno....pleeze.....Wait...... i almost forgot....true hp can only be measured on a 1/4 mile track....sorry.....i forgot everything else but the track doesnt count as fast. Simple minds.....
Gee, a little mad are we? Calm down man. Everyone on here has there own opinion. I believe Supra's are over rated.....is that so bad. I mean I am entitled to my opinion. Sure they make great horsepower, thats a given. Supra's pump out mad horsepower which is very impressive. But whats the use of a car that can only can hook up from 70-80mph??? I find it pathetic that some guys are running mid to low 11's @ 140mph+. Nobody denies the fact the Walser or any other of the internet Supra god's have not beaten top end motorcycles. Afterall, Supra's are top end cars. Nobody on here has questioned you or called b.s. on you. I have you seen your car, very goregous car might I add.
Yeah so what if Viper's and Mustangs and F-bodies make the same horsepower........main difference is these cars hook. They run the e.t. thats expected at those power levels. I'm more impressed by effeciency of cars going down the 1/4 mile than a mid 12 sec Supra trapping at 130mph. A high horsepower Supra running those times doesn't impress me. A majority of the Supra's I have seen are dyno queens. They make mad mph but yet go nowhere. Spin, spin and spin some more. Whoopdeedo, I can get my mom's focus to spin like hell too. Supra's make for fun, top speed street cars......thats about it. I would never buy one for any sort of drag or roadrace use.
Not to flame your or anything but people are entitled to their own opinions. And how is his victory a shallow one. Light turned green, he hooked, you didn't, he beat you......deal with it. I would hope you come back and beat him.....real bad. Afterall what does he have to lose.......oh no he got beat by a 700 horse Supra in his Eclipse. Just learn to lighten up man. Don't get all pissy over a couple of comments.
Can't we all just get along
