If you read the thread at the actual site, that Supra has 1000rwhp. Also, apparently the guy in the Ford GT wasn't really racing the second time or something. The first time, he just slowed down for traffic.

The guy in the Supra never caught cause he was running street tires. He kept spinning out.
i don't know how many 1000 HP supras i've seen that only run 12s, because they run such ungodly amounts of boost that the turbo lag kills their ET.

i don't care if he was running on street tires or not. he still lost.
actually, its not so much the turbo lag...its the lack of traction from first through...4th gear

its really hard to get wide slicks in the back of them without hacking it all up, thats the problem.
