You also have to remember alot of the supras putting down that power are not also putting down as much torque as a domestic with similiar horsepower.
Which would mean he would have a high trap speed and a high ET.....(Torque= Elapsed Time---Horsepower= Trap Speed)

The reason that car ran the way it did was because of it's power curve...I would love to see it's spiked 1100rwhp dyno. Most likely makes around 700-800 trough the rpm, then reaches 1100 or whatever. That would explain a lot about the tiems it ran....
