Both cars are stockish on street tires. Videos are synced up when the tire barrier on the right goes off screen.

Dec 3, 2008 - Have you guys ever raced next to each other?
01Z06guy Says:
Dec 3, 2008 - No. We have been on the track at the same time and we have actually each passed the other when one spun out, but never been on the same place on the track at the same time. It will probably happen sooner or later. Maybe September 28th if SGS can make it out that day. It should be fun when it happens!
V10SuprA Says:
Dec 3, 2008 - I see. Haha you better rip it up on the track man... We need better drivers like you to show the world that these Supras aren't that fast...
01Z06guy Says:
Dec 3, 2008 - They're plenty fast and respond extremely well to mods. But I agree there are people who overrate them. But I've seen people overrate the Z06 as well. It's all in good fun and friendly compition. If SGS beats me or posts a quicker lap time, I'll readily admit it and post it for all to see.

Dec 3, 2008 - Z06s are clearly dominant on the road course. Supras need much more modification to keep up with a z06 which is lighter and has more readily available power. Supras can be modified easily and can be very fast in the straights but will always struggle with its weight and turbo lag. Also turbocharged cars are more inclined to overheat. I'm happy keeping pace with 01z06guy.

Dec 3, 2008 - Yeah, that's good sportsmanship. Although I have to admit; there are a lot more nescient important fans than arrogant domestic fans.

Dec 3, 2008 - Oh so close. That instant torque leading onto the final straight got you the edge. Picture in picture is easier to compare. Thanks for posting.
