Oh, lets not forget Paul Efantis' drag radial Supra. Still on the IRS, full interior I believe too, not sure though. 
Crikey guys, who cares!? There will always be something faster in a straight line. Anything can go fast in a straight line...ANYTHING. It's just a quick Subaru...why do people ALWAYS have to hate.
I could buy a fully interiored Lingenfelter TT 427 that runs 8s with a 24k mile warranty...the aforementioned Supras and Mustangs do not impress.
p.s. The block started as a 2.5L, not a 2.7L and from what I heard, the record setting car was not the car at NOPI. The record setter is stripped and runs an inboard air/water IC amongst many other goodies. This car is also expected to hit 8s.
