the backfire is insane

I got goosebumps watching that.

 

The second vid is just as crazy: http://www.fatkidracing.com/videos/saad9312.wmv

 

nice

 

I just came in my pants.

 

1 fast supra

 

wtf did he have a 250 shot of nitrous and two upgraded turbos, plus more and more. that's is retardely fast!

 

For that much power I"m sure it is a single turbo. Most likely a T6

 

Yep, single turbo and a big mofo at that:



/too lazy to resize....

 

 

looks like his turbo came out of a kenworth...insane

 

Yep that's a T6!

 

why does the exhuast do that...whenever he launches..??

 

Two - Step ignition. Basically how it works is it sets an artificial rev limiter much lower than the actual redline. Actually, you can program the launch rpm anywhere you'd like. So when he's sitting there just before he's launching he's bouning off the rev limiter and that's causing the backfire. This way you can have your right foot all the way to the floor, and the clutch all the way to the floor, and you only have to worry about letting the clutch out, not easing the throttle in.

 

Basically the two-step set to the artificial rev-limiter is burning fuel and spooling the turbo off the line; much like what mrsteve said. Without it, it would be hard to get the times he did.

 

nice

 

got mods????? holy shit what an engine bay......

btw this is one of the two top quickest 6-speed Supras in the country.... probably the world.... the other one is Ryan Woon out in AZ also... he is running in the low 9's as well....correct me if I'm wrong.

quite an accomplishment for the Supra since it is so damn hard to launch and most of the top guys have gone to Powerglide or other similar autos....

 

That car is snail-like.

All kidding aside, I cannot effectively type my amazement!

 

just thought of something in comparison.........

a modern F1 car does the 1/4 in 9.0 @ 181 mph

a CART car does it in 8.6 @ 166

just some times I have seen in the past..... looks like the ET could vary depending on conditions and launch, the F1 should be faster than 9.0..... but just kind of crazy to compare...... these race cars are FAST.

 

Are you sure? 181MPH is insane

 

hmm.. I saw those numbers a few years back - I don't think the current cars are any slower, if anything, they are faster.

 

Damn

 

ahhh...... knew I wasn't pulling that number out my ass

from a mag

 

Interesting. Can they get traction to run those times? I suppose in a CART car alot of the weight is over the rear wheels correct?

 

yes, as evidenced by any race - I mean, you never see em going sideways or sliding all over the place, unless the track is wet.

I know for certain the F1 cars have ridiculous traction control systems that make the car grip like nuts

 

SWEET!!! Makes me want to get this.

 

Pretty sweet! I wonder what a NASCAR runs in the 1/4?

 

makes you want to get what?

 

around 10.5 @ 130...... no slouch either but not much compared to the open-wheelers...

damn $55k, but super sweet!

 

....follow Virus7's lead and click on the 'this' in my last post.

 

oops... missed the link

nice supra

edit: damn, that is SW's old Supra.... that thing is SWEET... I believe it's run high 9's @ 150+ and it is NOT a drag car - it can be daily-driven....

oh oops it says 9.81 @ 153 right in that page... I need to skim better

 

Sweet vid, thanks for sharing

 

^^^ btw 781 rwhp = about 910hp.... in a daily-drivable street car

 

NASCAR Winston Cup
Monte Carlo 3.25/6.21
10.5/130.1

Damn the NASCAR is slow from 0-60. My CL-S can probably beat it.

 

damn.. the NAWS must come on after 60...

 

a couple of his other rides in the background...

wish I could find some pics of his white C5 MTI...

 

used to have this



now THAT's a lip....
