the chosen one

Downloaded a few car clips today and spotted one that looked very interesting, downloaded and it blew my mind, a supra doing a 1/4 mile time of 9 seconds. would post the video clip up but dunno how to.

the chosen one

check out www.turboimports.com to check out the specs of the car. also it done the quarter mile in 9.81 @ 153.58mph

I think we're pretty behind the times in the UK as far as drag racing goes. lots of fast cars down unda and in the states ...

this is my personal favorite ... 1st gen rx7 running 10's (daily driver too!) http://www.ajc13b.com/movies.htm

f**k me some of those runs that the rx7 does are bloody impressive, not too bad for a pre 95 car is it?

yes indeed, otherwise mycroft would be shouting his mouth off and using it to his advantage, but we have a 9 second scooby so spring that one on him if he starts bragging

Project X has over 1000bhp in a drag r32 skyline, there seem to be a lot of around ten sec cars in teh states, they claim these on a supra with a stock bottom end yet the supras here running the same power as these claim are getting nowhere near

ajm

theres a 7.95 1/4 mile skyline video on www.racingflix.com!

davegtt

not saying these cars aint beasts BUT I hear the US SQM is not as long as the UK SQM

andrewdelvard

Really? By how much?

davegtt

I dont know, Ive heard this numerous times from different people though. dunno what the US call a mile and what we do ????

would be interested to find out though wouldnt it

ajm

The 7.95 second skyline that I posted above was in Australia... how does their SQM compare

davegtt
