The problem is that when talking about mods, it depends on the level of modification. There are Supras that run from 7-13 second 1/4 miles. It just depends on the level of modification and the $ that was put into it. CylinderHead has a very nice Supra, I know he just got some more work done to it.

Hey, it's a race and the Porsche won. Nothing wrong with that. The 65 would have eventually passed him when the P ran out of gas, the ultimate fly by...

I've seen a few at e-town run in the 9's. Actually during one of the corvette events at e-town there was a class that if you ran higher than 10 you were disqualified.

At least that is what his signature sayst. As rumors will be I heard that someone from EVO actually drove his car at E-town and got into the 9s.
Unfortunately Scott will not be available for the track day

Not sure what they had but c6 and c5's were in the class. They were heavily modded.

Talk about "bringing a cannon to a gunfight"....

Those 996TT can be built to make alot of power.. not too many cars on the road will keep up with them... Although like someone else mentioned, there are a few tuners down south building 1200rwhp TT Vipers, so, there is always someone faster. If I am not mistaken, one of those TT Vipers broke an 8sec 1/4mile.. it was doing 163mph when it crossed the beams I believe..

Heffner is one of the tuners... http://www.heffnersperformance.com/twinturbosystems.htm . They and UGR go back and forth holding the title for fastest street legal viper.

Edit: UGR currently holds the title... 7.98 @ 183mph... http://www.undergroundracing.com/

We have a group of enthusiasts around here who all own 1000, 1100+ hp vehicles. Usually they're just Vipers, Supras and Corvettes. All of them, have of course, fully built motors.

How cool would that be to be lined up at a light with some punk and then lift the front end off the ground like that! Dreams.....

They've already run 9s with cams, headers and a 100 shot of nitrous. Wait until the turbo and supercharged cars start running.

I've been away for awhile but it's nice to know that a 996TT can still beat the S65...

It's good to know that they point out at the beginning of the race that there are 2 people in each car. It just wouldn't be fair if the S65 had only 1 cause then it's a different race altogether - right! Did you see the car lengths the Porsche put on the diesel truck next to him!? I wonder if the big truck had 2 people in his rig?LOL!
