The setup is good for 10's @135ish with the right driver. I'm not going to try that though because I'd eventually bust my diff.
Not much torque down low and tons of HP up top so that's why it runs the same ET as a 500HP V8 but the trap speed is higher.
People joke about Supras preferring to race from a roll and that's why

With almost 800 hp, 11's doesn't sound very impressive.
Not trying to bash, I'm just asking, wtf is up?
The new Z06's can run high 11's or low 12's with 500 hp.
Explain?

Yeah I'll probably run him again. They're always getting together to BBQ and racing and now that I'm buddies with them I'm welcome back anytime. He wants to do a roll-on too so I'll have a better chance then. He's getting supercharged soon so I hope to rematch him from a dig before that, lol.
Yeah I regret not practicing before the run, haha. Everybody was cool though and gave me tips on how not to bog.
I don't think I'll be going to roseburg. not a friendly atmosphere for high power imports.

I Don't know. From the video, it looks as though he was pulling on you in all gears. Even if you got a good launch, I wouldn't want to put money on you winning! No disrespect intended.

First off a R6 tops out at around 167mph not 175. And yes from a 4-6 gear roll your gonna win because the bike accelerates faster in lower gears. Try that **** with a 1000 and your gonna go home
