Hi, my name is MavEryck (yes, really). I'm a law student with a need for speed! I've been building hot rods and bracket drag racing since I was a kid. I've had some really cool cars and motorcycles.

Currently, I have a Turbo Hayabusa (verified 210mph top speed - 9.0 1/4 mi), 2001 ZO6 Corvette (no time slips yet), Harley Sportster 48 (low and slow), and my beloved Supra (unbelievably fast!)

We'll just call my Supra "Frank."

1. Because it's my Dad's name.

2. Because I created this monster and gave it life, (with mix matched parts and added electricity) much like Doctor Frankenstein.

Frankenstein's Monster was not the favorite of the town's people and some of you may have mixed reactions to what I have created.

In all fairness, we all have different visions for our Supras.

First of all, I love my Supra! I have owned "Frank" for about 17 years now.

I used to have all of the speed toys (Turbo timer, 3 inch Greddy cat-back exhaust, Trust strut bar, HKS metal head gasket, and Boost Controller)

Then, I went all out and put a bored and stroked small black Chevy, from a Corvette, in between the fenders!

383 cu inch stroker kit, bored .060 over. 388 cu inch full roller engine (roller cam - 300 degree duration, roller lifters, roller rockers). Balanced and blueprinted rotating assembly. Forged pistons (10.5:1 Flat tops) Aluminum Dart Pro heads. Holley 750 double pumper. True dual 3" exhaust through Flowmasters. Ceramic coated headers. Holley electric fuel pump, Aircraft fuel lines, Fuel pressure regulator, MSD 6AL ignition, MSD Blaster coil, MSD distributor. Evans Cooling (Space age liquid to prevent overheating), Griffin aluminum radiator, Black magic electric fan.

Toyota 5 speed transmission (rebuilt). Stock rear end.

"Frank" is literally a monster!

Years ago I showed this car at "Supras Invade Las Vegas." Frank had caught on fire and burned up.

It's much better and stronger now... "Frank" doesn't like fire... But you can't kill a monster!

Just pulled out of storage last month. Six long years. Showed the car in 2 car shows last Saturday.

Life is good!
