We have a big Supra meet in 3 weeks, so we took the Supra back to the track on Thursday for some testing. I had not been in the car since last year, but ran I 8.90 right off the trailer. The track was not good at all, best 60ft. was 1.42, my previous was 1.35 but the car is making more power now. My previous best was 8.75@165 with better conditions. I'm hoping I can get this thing to run in the 8.50s..6 speeds are fun!!
Yes, the whole car moves around all the way down the track. It still has the stock rear end, axles and 6 speed transmission that it came with. It still amazes me how strong the stock driveline is.
Thanks Jeff, we will give them hell.
Jody, you need to come down and I will take you for a ride in the passenger seat..
I figured it would be something along those lines... but how that clutch has lived, I don't know! (this is where you chime in about your world-class clutch-slipping skills).
2. What have you done to the 6spd in order for it to handle the power?
Thanks, that car belongs to my buddy Chris@Performance Motorsports. He has owned it for about 8 years. It made 1533 to the wheels, we run it at about 1400+/-. We run a Tilton 5 disc set up. The transmission is the completely stock 6speed that it came with.
This is my Supra, it makes 830rwh with the stock motor. It's one of 326 factory hardtops ever made..

8.73@170, new best..
With the mph and some better prep you should be in the 50's easy.
