See you do \<3 the Supra.
I wanted something that was different, scary fast, and was rare.
Was this or a Viper.

I’d hope i wouldn’t lose with race, I’d be embarrased. My car is fast enough, I cant imagine anymore power. I havn’t even put race gas in it and its un streetable.

Your car is dangerous on street tires unless it has pump gas in it. In that case, then it’s just slow on street tires:haha
I kid:hug
Seriously though, don’t even drive it on race gas and street tires. It’s downright dangerous. I got lucky a few times…

Are “DR’s” considered street tires.
Yea, you can end up dead, or severly hurt with 700whp on the street. **GUIDERAIL** FTW.

Get the BFG drag radials and don’t look back. I’d seriously make them your next purchase.
Yes, they are DOT approved street tires.

Your car will hook nice from a 2nd gear punch in warm weather on drag radials and 28psi.

You can get close to 4000 miles out of the BFGs, and way more out of the Nittos. I drove my car from WV to here on Nitto’s, with several hours in the rain…
Seriously dude, you’ve dropped enough to make power. Drop a little to make it as ‘safe’ as possible.
