My GT2 vs. WOTM Supra...this was almost ugly (video)

Here is my testament to the GT2 and its brakes. I crossed the 1/8 mile at 106mph. I had about 100ft to stop. ENJOY!!!

"Holee f*ckballs."

So how did the Supra end up sideways in your lane? You need a new camera guy.

Search for "gt2 supra." Then go to Page 2. Should be the last vid on that page.

Glad you stopped in time

The guy video taping mentioned "Joe Curry" there is someone by the same name here in FL that used to have an SL65 and now tinkers around with a twin turbo Ford GT.

Man, that was rediculous!! Very impressed, but second others in that they left out the best part, which was your cat-like reflexes with regard to the spin itself. And I LOVED the commentary.

Looks a little like Saads from Intense motorsports. But after looking a little closer I dont think it is.
