How driveable is a high powered Supra?

Agree with the above.

 

500/600/1000 are all numbers that you will see when driving flat out. certainly in the UK you will be hard pressed to hit those numbers within legal limits (perhaps for 2-3 secs on the motorway).

 

What you need to look out for is the torque and acceleration, this will depends on how hard you press the throttle and how responsive the setup is. I would argue that a well setup single car is easier (predictable) to control (within legal speed limits) than a BPU supra.

 

In any case, with wider tyres and the billions of pot holes on london roads, driving off-boost seems to be a constant challenge.....let alone when "giving it some beans"

 

be careful is what i say, learn your limits - its never the cars fault.

 

Good advice, I will take it for sure.. :cool:

 

@IanC & Malcom- Makes sense... :cool:

 

Does anybody know of a good place in Japan for the geo setup, no such place in SA with that type of equipment...
