Good grief he's at it again...

 

Ryan Woon takes the stock 6-speed record again with an 8.86@168mph.

 

That's 1400RWHP thru a Stock driveline (gearbox, prop, etc...the Diff is TRD.)

 

Oh and it was a rubbish launch apparently! lol

 

Think he'll be in the 8.6's soon.

I don't think even Ryan would try to claim it's going to pull like that on the street....street tyre's and not a prepped track makes a Supra a handful to launch!

jeez that is amazing, through a stock manual drivetrain FFS! I'd think this was bullsh1te if I'd have heard it down the pub and not on this forum lol

 

So whoever says supe auto's are better than manuals for dragging, and then promptly highlights auto cars that don't use the stock auto drive train, ahem... ;)

Chilli, you seem determined to continue the auto vs manual thing, don't you?

 

If you had been around this forum for any length of time you'd realise just how OLD the argument is getting.

 

Just remember, the cars we're talking about in this thread bear little overall resemblance to what we drive on the street so how relevant is it to how OUR cars might perform?

 

I think we can only marvel at how both of the cars involved have got to the stage they are at.

lol erm it looks like it might be you who needs to get over it ;)

 

you are right, they bear little resemblance to our cars, but a stock manual drivetrain is a whole lot closer than a Powerglide TH400...

 

at the end of the day I found it very interesting and was just pointing that out, not debating it since there is nothing to actually debate or argue about here... Ryan Woon's amazing car has shown that :)

Yep, Soop Dogg keeps dragging it up by saying stuff like "So whoever says supe auto's are better than manuals for dragging, and then promptly highlights auto cars that don't use the stock auto drive train, ahem... " Oh no, hang on... ;)

 

I've got a manual and auto Supras murder me off the line :lalala: heresy! burn the witch!
