ran with a supra today

[stng87]

I dont know much about the supra so Im not sure what year ect., but it said it was a turbo on the back. It rolled up next to me at about 30mph not sure but I was in 2nd at 3000r's. I was surprised to say the least at how fast this car actually was! I was steadily pulling away but it hung pretty respectabily and was never much more than a single link behind up to around 50-60 mph. I know the guy driving it and its pretty free of all the normal ricer add ons with the exception of a chrome fart pipe that would hang many o' ricers heads in shame. Other than that it was a pretty alright car, with impressive speed to go with it.

Those cars a twin turboed from the factory, run low 14s stock I think, so he must have done something. Those dirt fart pipes are too much for me, even if thats all they have, cause its utterely unnecessary.

Actually the newest generation supras should run low 13's stock, and 12's no problem with the boost turned up. Well if the driver doesn't suck that is. Which would indicate how that car kept up with you. He probably had the usual free mods and downpipe, exhaust etc. You've got the torque down low though, thats probably why you pulled away from him hard at first then it seemed like he kept up pretty well. In anycase, congrats bro. Those cares are no joke. Thats the only rice I would ever drive.
