Thumbs up CLS55 vs. (3) BPU Supras!

I just posted this in the CLS forum, but wanted everyone to enjoy.

I just got this car 2 weeks ago and love it. Black on black, 20" lowenharts, Blacked out lights, blacked out grill, and custom fog lights, and lowered with Star. I do have a 74DBB Supra that puts down over 600whp on low boost so my supra buddies were talking smack that the CLS could not pull a BPU supra. So i had to shut them down.

Here is a video of me and three supras. All were BPU and putting between 370-400whp. The video quality could be better, i just got this new camcorder the day of the race and when I put it in "night mode" things came out like in slow motion, but the sound it 1:1. I think the night mode slowed the shutter or something. Either way, you will def. get the idea.

This is my 74DBB Supra! The CLS can't handle this puppy though

Weird seeing Supras lose. Guess I am so used to ....

"Look at vid id Bob's 4,234,423 WHP Supra..only running 8,342lbs boost too"

Fully expected another Supra Wins story...wow, least that gives me hope on the street. Beautiful Blue tricked out one cruised by the other day and must admit, I was in terror. Knowing me, it would have been "Bob's"

Well you just have to know who you are playing with. Supras range so much in power these days, that it would be a gamble. I know I ran my 74DBB against a friend's E55 in damp streets, and I had to let off at ~5000rpm because I was spinning so bad and by the beginning 4th gear I was still two bus lenghts ahead. In the dry and me shifting at 8000rpm, it would have been a lot worse.

No those are the stock supra seats that I had re-wrapped and padded tight, in two tone leather and red piping with the "turbo" stiching.

Thanks guys for all the compliements. I am truely a car enthusiast. I don't jump on band wagons, and say BMW this and Merc that. If a car is great, you have to give props. Thats why I have a Jap supercar, a BMW and Merc to complete a trio. I have promised myself that I will not by another car, no matter how long unless its the Murci LP640.

Gorgeous cars and house! I'm certainly jealous.

Jacksonville is and has definitely been moving up in the last 3-5 years. I am very happy here, and thanks for the compliments. Everytime I wanna scare myself and put a grin on myself, I drive the supra. Its truely the most fun car I have ever driven. And I have driven lambos, ferraris, etc.

Awesome video!

Those Surpas are mean.

Yeah, it's sad your puppu cant hang with your 600WHP Supra, but it really isn't fair with your mods and all-- now if you BRABUS CLS ROCKET the Merc... a lot cars will be in for a beating... I would LOVE to see Cylinder Head's Supra, or your own, against the CLS ROCKET...

I did race my supra against my buddy's E55 in wet conditions and it was not even fun. Basically, about the only time the E55 was even was when my turbo was spooling. I had to actually let off at about 6000rpm (redline is 8000) on every gear because I was loosing serious traction in the damp streets. Even at that starting from 50mph in second gear to 120, i was about 10-14 car lenghts ahead. I would love to race one that has been modded up. As soon as I put a pulley and headers on my CLS I am going to compare the two, but I am not sure who I would trust to drive either car, lol.
