Hey Guys, every year the Supra owners club rents Santapod for us, there is only 45 supra's listed at the moment out of 75 cars allowed to go.

As we have a few spaces left at the moment i asked if i could offer a few spaces to you guys and was granted five.

Price is £55 for as many runs as you can get in with like mined car enthusiasts, this has been opened up to a couple of other clubs to cover costs.

Full details here, get your name down and see you there.

Regards Jamie.

The stock TT's run about 13 or 14 seconds so should be similar id say smile

cant imagine many stock tt's being left though or many that are running manuals, those auto's do get a good advantage I'd say

should be a good day though

Yea auto TT's are very good on the 1/4 some stock turbo cars on the board getting into the 11's on normal street tyres.

Where supra's are concerned being manual is a big disadvantage on the 1/4.

Not competing against you lot... like living in my little world were 12.4 is considered quick, thats with a boot full of amps etc as well!

MPH was only 117 as couldnt get alot of traction of the line really as to much torque and power for the tyres. Be interesting what your new toy does as turbos are a little easier on the launch.

Managed an 11.7@126mph at santapod today, had some problems with high intake temps (think its just a dodgy sensor) and it was pulling timing so i was happy with the time. more to come, shame none of you guys could make it, great day.

Im seriously impressed! Question... do the non turbo versions the same shape as yrs have the same reliable engine as looking to get one as a second car since they are so cheap now. Not tuning it just as a runabout for work etc.
