Location: Christchurch | Thats' crap, the Supra was reeling him in that last race. Maybe if he wasn't the one calling the start, the Supra would easily be faster, especially moreso if it was stripped like the Civic is.

Location: Waitakere  | na........ - the supra wasn't anywhere "reeling him in" sure he was slowly gaining as you would expect - but they were pas 120mph and it still wasn't anywhere caught up....... He gave him 3 goes @ 3 diff types of race.....

Location: North Shore City | What was done to the supra? Not much clearly, I love my hondas and good on the k20a but a 2jz has far more potential tbh

Location: Hastings | It's possible with a godd driver in the Civic and a bad driver in the Supra. The hatch is pretty stripped so could be down around 900kg and a Supra is a lard-assed land barge even in its lightest trim (1490kg). Even my Commodore's lighter than that. But at the end of the day you can bet the guy in the Supra took a hot girl home while the Civic driver was dragging the Firebird...

Location: Tauranga | Yeah the supra was catching him easy at 100mph+ in the last run. "Shit off the line I bet" (to his mate) "What" "She quick off the line or what?" "Ohh she'll get off the line" "Fuck yeah I'm ready to get ripped up hahahaha" "What are you runnin'?" "Oh just a little four cylinder" "Yeah, yeah but what..." BOOOOBAAAAA Lulz I like how he limits every freaking gear, not just 1st and second with wheelspin, but 3rd and fourth like 3 times each before he changes, even with his huge monster taco bell :thumbsup:

Location: Hastings | Also you've got to remember that if the guy isn't falling any further behind then he's actually travelling at the same pace as you but sooner on the road, so he's gaining on you time-wise - by the time he gets to where you are on the road he's going faster than you were at the same point. If you get what I mean.
