When are people going to start taking turns...worring about response??? Why is everyone so worried about going straight??? Seems like now adays everyone just talk about highest HP and 1/4 times...
Supras we made for taking turns...
BTW - Ron won't be racing this too often...this work of art will sit at 9psi or so like his 7M...
cuz, response is made for people who cant make big numbers... like 240's and such. the ironic thing is, my friend who is a 240 fan (but hates the stigma) was just talking about this. all the drift crowd is concerned with is response, response, response. thats for people who want Disco-potatos. anyone can throw a tiny turbo on a small motor and get it to spool quick. it takes ingenuity and time to get big power out of a motor and have it not shit the bed in 500 miles. then getting that power to the ground to run decent times means youve got talent behind the wheel.
supras were made to go fast first, turn second. if they were meant to take turns, theyd be more like RX7's; 3200lbs, 50/50 weight dist, and lack of amenities.
duane, it just needs a 4788 now. thats a few bolts away. but besides that, he wont need the 1200hp to run 8's. he could do it w/ 800-900 just like this other guy i know. darin dichiara is running 8's on a 6sp, full weight mkiv w/a custom garrett/borg 75mm turbo. hes not on it anymore, but i beleive he broke 8's on that 75mm tho.
