6 second car *video*

Hey off topic, but are you really a girl?

I should clarify...I've never met a girl really into car performance stats before...mostly they just like the looks and the drivers? What do you drive (like, how have you p1mped your Miata?)

Nice car, but I wouldn't consider it a "6 second car" consider it finished at 6.958. That's a little closer to 7.

a 6 second car is a 6 second car whether it finishes at 6.1 or 6.99999
 
Not by my logic 🙂 It's probably flawed, like it is most of the time.

Notice I said "I wouldn't consider" instead of "It's not a 6 second car!"

JSYK (Just So You Know), 99.999999999% of anyone affiliated with any sort of drag racing would consider a 6.99999999 second car a 6 second car. Mebbe these peeps aren't good at math...sorry!

have you ever met any girl before? 🙂 kidding!

but yeah i don't know why all you people here think contrary..maybe it's just all the car threads i post?

or my adam's apple? haha no j/k!!!

it's probably just due to my two older brothers though..and my mom not really being around much when i was a kid..both my parents really but that's a separate issue.

and to thawolfman: yes 🙂
 
That's pretty damn impressive.. And yes, if it does the quarter mile between 6.000 and 6.999, it's a six-second car. Even if it's a pickup.

Got any details on what it's using for a motor?

Edit: "Running on a 2JZ-GTE.." doesn't mean anything to me.. it it rotary, 4cyl, 6cyl? Turbo, supercharged, or nitrous injected? How much engine displacement and compression?

I believe that is a MK4 supra turbo motor.

3.0L, straight 6, two turbos if that's the case.

that's pretty much all the info i had..so i'd imagine it's a twin turbo 6-cyl engine that's running at a pretty high boost and possibly increased displacement from the original 3.0 L engine..

Girls into cars are not that hard to find. Hell even my mom used to drag race when she was younger.



Is that an eighth mile track?

Last generation supra turbo motor. Supposedly the stock bottom end is good for 1000+ hp. :Q

i don't think so..you can see that the trap speed is just under 200..which should be about right for that time.
