The part that amazes me is that the drivetrain doesn't just disintegrate. Those are some hellacious e.t.'s and trap speeds. What RPM do you launch at again?

A 4 wheel Ninja for sure. SW, you are something. Probably makes the M5 seem like a slug.

how much faster do you think it'll go with a beefed up trans and rear end so you can shift it harder?

It really doesn't need a beefer trans and rear end, I just need to rebuild the trans because we are pushing about 1600 hp through it and it's starting to make some noise. The rear end is good so far..

I recall a few years back, One of the "Wine and Cheeze" Magazines like Car and Driver, Road and Track, etc. Did an article on the baddest high end car reguardless of price. Ferrarris, Porsches, Lambo's etc. Any car any price.

Guess what won? Yep.

A Toyota Supra Turbo.

There was a blue Supra on Drag radials in Vegas at the last race that was from Vegas, that was unbelievable. It was so clean. It ran like 8.30's in our class, which is off the pace a bit. He said he was having trouble building boost on the starting line.

With 60ft times in the 30's, you might have some 7's in there, Especially with a turbo car. Our Nitrous car does 7.80's with a 1.34 60 ft. We are down in the 1.24 as of last weekend. With the 180 Mph that is just tick below us in the nitrous big block. We upped the record last weekend to 152 in the 1/8th and do 185 in the quarter. There are turbo and Procharger guys running darn near 200 mph in our class, but they have like 1.40 60 fts since they cannot put the power down early, but look out cuz the motor on the top end.

Good luck the car looks awesome.

Time for a taller rear tire that thing really hammers it off the line for a 6spd. :yes:
