Branners Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 even as I was typing it I thought I should make it clear it wasnt me having a direct go at you, just making sure we dont get it all kicking off with CRD thinking we dont appreciate the work they have done on their car.

Syed Shah Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 Originally posted by BigSly Also just because other peeps with fast cars dont come onto the forum's (like rocket ronnie, rk tuning etc!) it does not mean that they are not out there!

When it comes to crunch time, nothing is heard of them. Lots of BS, no times or dynos. Of course the UK is brimming with 10 and 9 second Supras we don't now about. Funny that. Dude ran that time in front of people, no rumours no BS. Didn't you run a 9sec 1/4 in your Skyline? Rumours are nice, but facts are better.

Dont beat about the bush mate, just come out and say what is you want to... Thats my point earlier about how Dudes car compares to the 'others' like the CRD one, they spend countless months/years on their cars, and money, yet dude has done it in just over a year (total time), or even less from when he started to pipe up about building such a car, and he went out there and has the slip to prove it, at least he didnt end up as the 'hairy paper weight' .

MONKEYmark Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 Originally posted by BigSly edited whats with all the editing? looks like back peddling. these cars that do 9 seconds in secret are BS if you had a 9 second car you would be shouting about it from the roof tops. do you remember at york when someone said to you how fast is your car and you said pick any car here and i will beat it. and you were running 11`s with t78 set up. if someone runs a 9 at a track like santapod or elvington or avon park, it will be all over the forums before you get home. you cant take it away from john doing all work on his car and building his own car. the CRD is impressive its an out and out drag car 1 seat, slicks. think people will warm towards a uk car as its possible for good times here too. its starting to get better over here for supras with a few putting singles on. so lets see how it goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Storm Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 I take nothing away from john's time and think he has done very well indeed tbh! What i was trying to say and what came across were completely different and that is why i edited my posts! I could never get the R32 running the way i wanted!! but that is all sorted now as i have changed tuners and the cars ecu etc etc..and tbh the driver was partly to blame as well... IF i had a 9 second car (for arguments sake) i would not be shouting about it......... What is the next event you are at MArk?? Stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu probably the jap performance show if my cars ready and nos fitted. will be a shakedown run to test the single out question is, is your car up for tob3 or out to play, show them how to do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we still have the fastest supra in europ :flame Dev Sorry mate didnt realise i had ignored you !!!!, i did the time on BFG DR's , i have some Nittos' as well but as soon as i get the Bogart 15's i'll run slicks by choice (this is financial not so much for grip) and DR's when i have too (TOTB etc) but allways in 15" form to get the bigger sidewall. The spec of the cat may well have totally changed by santa pod to one that is defo CAPABLE of hitting the 9's but we will have to see , it depends on what i think of the new converter .Whatever i will still drive it up there (150 mls) and hopefully home again Dude:flame Dev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here here Greeny , both cars are awesome in their own way , The CRD car is an animal and for a change the driver (Dee i believe) seems to be able to (shock horror) actually drive the car and get it to launch , it looks awesome and i look forward to racing it , so it was imported but that was a common sense way of buying performance but it will break and then CRD will need to put it back together so in the end it will become their own car as it will prob end up with a different engine if it grenades in a spectacular fashion , either way this sort of performance is long overdue in the UK supra community , the skytaxis have had it their own way for far too long .
