Well not really but, Breezin91t raced Duane in his brothers 1j RHD car. 60roll about, they stayed pretty close. I'm not sure who won as I was trying not to rearend them :D I gave about 4 seconds and ran em down real quick :)

Tom can tell you the details.

It was a blast out driving with some mk3's, First time for me!

Who knew 453whp could be this fun!!!

Nate: <golf clap> well done!

450+ is a blast how's the spool/traction/throttle response?

Okay!!!:icon_razz Here we go. First off, let me just say, er...Nate's car is F...in' fast as shit!!!:aigo: :biglaugh: I was lucky enough to get a ride in it, and now know again, that there is another whole world out there beyond the upgraded CT 26!!( Previous official "fast Supra" ride was with Duane, @ 24psi!!@!)
On to the race. Duane, driving his brothers car, (thanks Darrel!)LOL! and myself, did the 3-honk thing from about a 55mph roll. I grabbed 3rd and it was on! The 1J, pulled me strong. On the upshift, I started to reel him in...maybe 100mph or so. At about 110mph I was gaining quick, but in all fairness, Duane had to back outta' it, cause he had a "non-participant" (LOL!) in the lane ahead, and I had the clear shot! I'm very surprised, :icon_surp that Darrel's car is that fast! I thought that I'd show him that the 7m's torque, would rule the day...but I guess I need to tune my car, if I ever want to try that again! LOL! RonRam, videod the race, so we'll have to see exactly what their perspective looked like. (he was riding with Duane) As to what Nate was doing during all of this? Well, I imagine he was yawning, and patiently waiting for those fuckin' sloww ass Supra's ahead of him to get outta' his way, so he could shift to fourth!!!:biglaugh:

P.S. Did you guy's just happen to figure out the ProFec before we left?!:naughty: :biglaugh:

450+ is a blast how's the spool/traction/throttle response?The spool... It takes a second, and then its pins you in the seat, throttle response is great. Traction I'm not sure about, its loud and goes straight so I couldn't really tell you how the traction is :dunno: I guess its good enough!

Great story Kwnate, but as for the 453. I guess I'll have to see it on another doctored up dyno sheet.......................:biglaugh:

You told Vonda to go and kick my ass, well she did. We raced saturday night and she handed me my ass on a silver platter. I got revenge later on that night, BUT I did lose to her once and I gave it everything I had. It's a terrible feeling, when you're losing and cant do a dang thing about it..............lol

Come on Tom..lets be truthful here. You were not realing me in "quick". Maybe a little but would be hard to tell as I had to brake hard because of the car in front of me. I do think the 7M would be a lil better at the track but will see. I was surprised that I took you like I did to to be honest. Darrell's right hand drive 1J sure does pull hard. and THAT was me shiftin with my left hand LOL Not to good with it either :icon_razz

Let's redo this when the meet is on for next week at the PacNWSuprafest Nationals! ?? I will be racing the car at the track it seems :) Darrell will be at work and we want more 1J's to rep here.

Post that vid Ron and show everyone LOL

I don't doubt Ron has a family, but he needs to have his priorities in order....

1.....video
2.....family
3.....2 supras
4.....10 manifolds

I would love to watch this alleged video................. If you are behind, Kwnate, are you even in it or did they film you coming on strong?

Just be patient SupraHero...we are all going to a very big Supra meet later this week. Somebody will video Nates car, believe me!:biglaugh: Too bad Duane and Ron's cars aren't finished yet, or the three baddest Mk III's you have ever seen (maybe) would be represented!:icon_razz I live close to these guys, and I am dying to see them completed too!:icon_bigg

Is there any way someone else can host the video or get another link? That thing will not load up on my computer. It's driving me crazy, not getting to see it. I mean, I know it's there and can't watch it. It's like some cruel and unusual punishment.....................lol
