You know you want to see it

Sweet Video Ben ! What does your RT put down without the N2O?
Did you buy your RT with the SC , or did you have it installed ? Jeff |

Ben
Did you subtract some power? I thought you were at or extremely close to 998 to start with. Still looks good anyway, you are planing the trip to bowling green, right? Rohn |

The power difference is probably due to running the dyno on street tires rather than slicks -- they spun on the dyno earlier. However, we won't know until next time we take it to the track.
Congrats on your runs, BTW -- you guys are kicking butt in the 1/8th! |

You probably lost horsepower because of the added weight of a passenger

Man that is one awesome pull.... if only you could have got Refrigerator Perry to sit in the trunk, you'd have cracked the 1000 mark! Tire slip's a bummer on the rollers (as is clutch slip). There's no doubt the 1000+rwhp is there though - well done DLM!

[quote]If DLM is so great, then why can't he break 10 seconds in a 1/4 mile to save his life (with Doug Levin driving)... when a car with that HP should be turning low 7's with ease? Ask him why Doug left the stock tranny and rearend on a 1,000 HP when they are only rated to less than 600 HP? Ask him how easily the car handles under full throttle while the chassis is twisting in the wind like a pretzel? In a car with an engine of that magnitude, he should have at minimum a Lenco or Quaife transmission and a Halli brand adjustable 4-link suspension with chassis stiffiners all over the place. Quote:

My good friends, cousin in law who is about to get married to a imigrant from Georgia, has a boss, told this one guy that....
By the way...I talk to Jesus (1000hp supra) on occasion...and personally know many other local supras that are well above the 600rwhp/tq range. Your information is less than accurate and should really be better researched. |

No offense, but you shouldn't believe everything you read on "rallyfreak"
The "low 7 second" estimate alone is hilarious -- a best case for my RT, with big tires and an auto tranny, would be high 8s.At any rate, both the Supra and the Viper use a T56 6-speed. Getrag makes this tranny in many different variants, each with its own torque rating. Neither the Viper nor the Supra variant is rated for 1000 ft/lbs; both have shown to hold up remarkably well under such conditions, but both will eventually fail. As for the HKS twins, for street use I'd honestly recommend a small/medium-sized single (SP61?). The lag on those HKS turbos was a killer... I had my choice of bog or wheelspin at any street-legal speed. A small single making high-400s at the wheel would have been a far better choice. |

I don't know what transmission the Supra used. One correction though. The T-56 is made by Tremec not Getrag. See the following site.
http://www.tremec.com.mx/menu1b.html BTW I enjoy your posts and admire your car. |
