From a roll, with the proper suspension setup and good tyres, I'm talking either et streets or radials in 295/55/15 or 325/50/15, a supra can hook 1000rwhp+ from 2nd gear Not sure on other cars, they probably can't fit a tyre that big without tubs ect There's not many huge hp supras around qld that I know of that goes out street racing And I don't know of any that have a 15x10 rear wheel to fit the big 295 or 325

I would expect that ford too weigh a fair bit? It takes a lot of power to run MPH with a lot of weight. Yes even 1000hp in an unset-up car can yield low MPH and rubbish ET's I thought 143mph was pretty good. Im never around 1000rwhp cars but, so im probably not the best judge.

960hp 3000lbs? Is that all Supras are between 3200-3300lbs + driver so to run 160mph in approx 3500lb car is 1119hp 150mph is 922hp Are these drag calcs flywheel or rear wheel hp? ---------- Post added 01-04-12 at 14:13 ---------- Xr6t kerb weight is between 3600-3800lbs So to go 141mph with 4000lb is 875hp 143 is 913hp

Yeah looks to only touch the brakes at the end but how it's revving is a bit weird for a powerskid

That XR6 is massively on the brakes. You can see in the beginning where he starts moving then slows it down again
