DISSAPOINTING NEWS..
In fact I did take my middle single supra and the tc, TC was running great BTW.. It ended up being 39-40 degrees that night, and Spinning was a SERIOUS issue before at 65 degrees.. Not to mention 6 more psi, and 75 shot, and More timing!!
I concluded to take the tc this weekend most likely when I put my 800WHP supra on the dyno and at 25 psi (about 650 WHP) it made 400 WHP..LOL.. the run lasted literally 1 second because it spun SO hard.. they had to strap down my rear control arms to even get it to hold.. so next run I did 660 WHP at 25 PSI on the supra, and tunrned it up to 32 psi and started blazing the tires again and made 500 WHP// lol
so didnt want to waste the TC's power making run if something like that was going to happen.
Ended up turning the boost down to 20 and racing a 520-540WHP Buschur racing built evo, COULD NOT hook at all on those tiny ___ BFG's 225s on a 39 degree night!!! NOOOO.. 1st race I blew the blow off valve hose off(thanks to my budy who forgot to zip tie it back..lol) but the dud still posted the vid like an a$$. even when I let off 1/2 sec into the race I knew what happend when I saw the AF gauge go to 10.0 2nd race it was better, but I spun so hard and still pulled him about a car, and as soon as I started to really pull him he braked HARD..haha.. Evo was pretty fast for sure, but the TC shines even spinning to 100+!!! @ only 20 PSI..
crazy incar vid for you guys so you can see what 20 psi looks like(racing evo) and then 32 and spray WOULD look like.. working on a tire setup now for the street and for the track
VID OF ME AND THE EVO.. Im in right lane, 3rd gear about 60, and spun hard he started to walk up on me, then by the end I was a 1/2 car past him and really pullin him hard and he braked at like 115 mph..

Good man. Kinda waiting in limbo right now and waiting to get my 350z gone (hopefully in spring). Right now I'm just picking up little stuff to address the suspension (sway bar, ES Main bushing set, tires...etc). The big stuff like the PTuning kit, the Volk RE30s w/RT615's that Nurspec has for me are going to come after the Z is gone.

Should have been gone a long time ago to tell you the truth. Dealer screwed me over when I bought it to begin with. But since the whole Time Attack thing and me wanting to really turn the notch up on it, I can make a lot more room to grow with the tC if I got rid of the heavy wallet hitting Z. I would save so much money with it gone.
Not to mention...there's a certain Concept RWD car coming out in 2011 that I've fallen in love with...

He did post what happened in the description of the video, so he's not a complete ****.

I think I know what car you are referring to. It may be the same one I have my eyes on too..................

Oh, forgot one other MAJOR factor....hehee. Expecting son #2 next month. So, 2 boys and No girls...YAY!!! No offense to daddies little girls out there.
So, I have the tC with fixed back bucket seats and none in the rear, the Z that's only a 2seater, and a Buick Regal that I use as a family/when tC not running car. BUT the Regal isn't exactly an eye pleaser, it's more of a beater that rides as smooth as a Caddy even with nearly 300k miles on it. I love it, but like I said, it needs some "visual" pleasing mods. SOO....I need a 4 door with some style so heavily looking into a used Audi A4 (sexy).
My woman though texted me and said she really liked a freakin Kia Forte..

SWEET! Congrats to you and the family also. I think I would be a mean dad if I had a little girl....lol. To much pressure for me to handle.
My boy Clayton put it best when he said:
"With a boy, you only have to worry about one d_ck. With a girl, you have to worry about a bunch of d_cks".
I had to pick myself up off the ground when he said that.
PS...sorry Justin for the minor thread jack.

Firstly, let me say we absolutely positively do NOT condone these speeds on public roadways. Take it to the track you guys. At 7,000 rpm, the gearing potential of the car with a 235/40R17 (24.4 in. tire dia) is as follows:
MPH at Engine Speed
RPM 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th
7,000 33.91 58.68 90.02 123.45 154.83
RPM Drop 4046 4563 5104 5581
Pasted from sheet...sorry.
