Bobbeh Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 Of course, and we'll love it when we see it dyno 1500bhp and run 8 sec times, thats coming with it surely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a full weight Supra and we don't speculate on power although it won't be shy We would love to be able to get it into the 9's....but we will have to wait and see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Harwood Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 I didn't know Volkswagon bits fitted Supra's Yes, I am joking! Looking very interesting. It'll be good to see it in action. I assume it's being built to use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume it's being built to use? Yeah its being built purely for drag honey no anti roll bars And it will obviously be our show car whilst its not is use too .....will be on show at our premises for all to see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 Insane. Love it! Shame it won't go round corners though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 Why won't it have anti roll bars? What's the benefit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinaRSE Posted May 27, 2005 Author Share Posted May 27, 2005 Why won't it have anti roll bars? What's the benefit? Just no anti roll bar on the front coz the 4" pipework cuts through the centre of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 Oh I see. Seems a shame to ruin the handling like that. If it's purely a drag car why would you keep it full weight? No offence like. I'm sure you know what you're doing and I don't know much about proper drag racing, I'm just struggling to understand the concept of a full weight Supra that can't corner properly.

TinaRSE Posted May 28, 2005 Author Share Posted May 28, 2005 Car is predominantly a show car, and will be on display in our showroom at the new premises, but we don't want to waste all of the potential power by never running it......hence us not stripping it out. Drag times are not the only thing we are out to acheive with the car, if we can run respectable times but still remain the show car status....we will be happy We agree that its a shame to loose the anti roll bar on the front, if anyone out there knows where I can get a custom one bent, please let me know. Thanks in advance Tina xxx.......(and Andy who's building it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
