Went to the track tonight. Ran against a guy with an 87 supra with a 1jz in it. Looked kinda beat up lol. Beat him off the line but he ran me down and only won by a few yards maybe. I forget the times, it started raining and they ran everyone off....bummer. I had lots of fun though. Everyone was impressed with my little ST. I really wanna 3S-GTE now though HEHE! Just figured I'd share my little story. BTW, you gotta keep in mind this supra had no turbo and was....as i said....a little beat up lol. But in my mind i still almost beat a supra!

Yea, I have some friends with some bad a$s cars. Like a eclipse gs-t and a 95 camaro ss pushin 400+ hp. Several older camaros and an 94 vette. And when they drive my car they love it. They say its so quick. And they are used to driving 13 (camaro)-15 second cars. So its really great to get compliments from them.

that has to do with the gearing and power band of the car.

our celicas may not have a lot of power but they do have their power where it counts.

6gc's are not slow, when they were in production they were faster than most cars. they still are faster than most.

oh, and nothing is like a supra TT. such a great car. it has to be the best car i have driven aside from the couple minutes i spent behind the wheel of a viper rt/10. the 350z also comes in close. but the Supra TT has to be the best car in all areas.
