    Your right, however I was simply saying you cant go by dyno numbers. There was a black supra that came to the south side not to long ago with 800+ and got beat by a 400 hp mustang....bad, now that supra was bad and all just wouldnt hook. That was the point I was trying to make and Im not downing supras just using that as an example.

    Just dont talk down to me like im retarded or some shit...Its not like i dont have experience in a car or ne thing..Ive driven PLENTY of high powered cars..I just have yet to own one..Hence why I said that it was a personal thing. Just because Im younger doesnt make me stupid...I know what that times matter not power numbers...

    Agreed, there are some slow, big HP supras. But, there are some slow, big HP V8 cars too, if they arent setup right. nothings going to ET if its spinning the entire run.
    But, not all supras are slow.
