As much as I like the fact that the Mkiv Supra Turbo can run 7s, I hope Toyota doesn't lose sight of the fact that the Supra is ... at its heart ... a roadrace vehicle. In order to get an Mkiv Supra into the 7s, you have to remove and reengineer a lot of what makes a Supra...a Supra. To me, the Mkiv Supra should be remembered for it's wins and placings at Pike's Peak, JGTC, and other roadracing events (eg. OneLap), instead of anything to do with drag racing or being strapped down to a dyno. This is a chassis that was designed and built to turn corners FAST, and to drive hard for hours at a time (i.e. not just go straight for a few seconds). I've got nothing against solid-axle 'foxbody' Mustangs, but if all I want to do is dragrace that's the platform I'd choose...not a stripped down $75K GT sportscar. Just mho...

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
