Well, I have the same setup as the orlando meet sans a manifold leak, there I put down 347 with an ok tune. This time at the dyno I only had about 100 miles on my clutch and didn't feel like strapping it to the dyno, plus I have no wideband right now so I really don't know how safe my car is running. As for times, my best 60' was a 2.3, which is sad because that was on 265 street tires, where as I can cut 2.0s all day on 225s...puzzling I know. But my 3 ETs of the day were 14.2, 14.0, and 13.9. Sad. My car was breaking up up top because of TUNING, no wideband=no tune. Still on the baby CT. But my MPH went from a consecutive 100, to a consecutive 106. So if I can get traction on the launch, low 13s are easily obtainable. As for those bitching about results not being posted or pictures not being taken, next time get your ass out of the house and join the community as a supra owner. Its hard to drive and take pics...My car goes out all the time, I can't think of one weekend in the 6 months I have owned my car that it did not make it out.(other than the fated BHG weeks) I worked non-stop for 3 days on my car doing the clutch, twice due to an improper installation of the release hub the first time around. As for the MKIIIs that made it out, which seemed to be the same ones from Tampa that always do, I had fun as always. Everyone else bring your car and don't bitch until then, just sit behind your keyboard and complain as I DRIVE my car around and enjoy. :wave:

My 3 runs at the track were hilarious.
1. 13.9 @ 101 rt 2.3
2. 14.0 @ 101 rt. 2.1
3. 14.1 @ 101 rt. 2.3

I was doing nothing but spinning on the first run. I had to pedal out of it numerous times in 2nd gear. The second run felt great out the hole, but when I shifted to 3rd, I felt a horrible vibration. Not sure if it was wheel hop or what but I took it easy the rest of the run. The last one was just all around horrible. The car felt great all weekend, but I just couldn't get it done at the track. MUCH thanks to Chevy and Chris for the help with my VPC! My best time at the track to date was a 13.4 @ 104 rt 1.90

Wasn't trying to be a dick, my rant wasn't directed to you so much, as you are building your car right now. It was mainly for others who have running cars but never come out... They know who they are so I will just leave it at that.

Ideal Performance at its best! We'll get it all fixed once again Denny. The more we do it, the faster it gets at fixing it.



Eli, we need to go take pics at that spot more often. The lighting is amazing, and my car doesn't look half bad in that pic with the sawblades. They do need to go though....

I don't have a problem posting shitty times. I just figured people wanted to hear the good stuff, lol

My time was messed up by a BHG but at the 1000' mark I was at 12.88 . I think it broke right before that. I was shifting at 5500rpm. Im no good at a decent launch with a stick. The last time I ran a car at the drag strip it was my 1967 SS396 Chevy.

When we get it all back together Im going automatic and back to the track!

My fathers 89 stock supra (the red one behind me if you were there) ran 15 somthing.

DAMNIT! I still didn't get to meet you. I was in the lanes and saw your car but you were no where to be found. Me and DrBowser went to your car and saw all of the coolant and saw your resevoir over flowing. We sent Brad to find you and let ya know but I didn't get a chance to meet ya. Let me know if ya need a hand or anything

I was a little dissapointed in the turnout being that I drove from Jax.. It was cool to meet a few of you from the forum though.. Maybe next year when I get the rebuild done I will make another trip..

I was hoping to get a few shots of RTA, DRB and Vic on their 2nd passes. After that guy crashed in the red Nova(I think) we knew we would have to wait to long for the cleanup.. We had a 5hr return trip home..

Nice meeting you guys though..
