Why don't more MK3's Drag race?

[a10secstreetcar]

I love drag Racing my Supra! I just picked up some CCw's with Hoosiers mounted. Can't wait to see what my launch will look / feel like now.

well i have acess to a video camera and will post up the timelips... let's see if my dream comes true

sweet!! post up the vids when you get them. never ran mine when it was n/a, got beat by a v6 rustang on the hwy from a 60 roll and that was enough for me to not bring it to the track.......lol

The block was just decked in May when I did the rebuild and they are going to deck it again if it needs it as well as the head.. So hopefully I can get this done this weekend.. I'll have it back by friday with all my other parts! Just wanna get some tuning with this thing before I go to Houston..

My only problem is the Freekin SNOW . Go Figure

Yes snow , all MK3's are off the road in NYC. "NO Racing today"

You do know these cars have independent rear suspension and are kind of sport cars made to handle, so why would anyone want to drive one in a straight line? Fast is fun, but why not the twisties?

That would belong in another thread, titled something like, "Why don't more MK3's autocross?" which you should probably start, if you want to discuss it.

Gotta house next door for sale here in South Ga. Plus got a full concrete 1/4 mile NHRA drag strip. OPEN YEAR ROUND. Its only close to 60* today so you kinda need to roll the windows down.

As for Drag Racing, Mine is gonna live to race from a stand still. DAMN the roll and go. Thats not racing.

Not many actually run long enough to race?

There will be no snow this weekend for street wars, so pick out your favorite R154 and sell the other 8 to fund whatever else you need for this weekend and let's see it!

My local track opened today. I'll be going tomorrow for test and tune. Just hope I don't break anything since it's 45 mins away.

Yeah, I don't know man, I am having second thoughts. I just don't feel prepared.
