Somebody is going to die before long at one of these events. Many of the cars competing for top, or near top-honors were never meant or designed to do speeds of 200++++ let alone 240+

I'd stick with OEM 200 mph cars.

Pushing limits is part of the fun
A stock 200 mph car is boring

In the early days of the Texas mile, when people drove their cars their and ran them it was "good" - now these purpose builts trailored cars are a joke.

who said anything about stock

I'm talking about people not dying because somebody using platform is beyond it's abilities... far beyond it's abilities

Cars that OEM can go near, at or above 200 mph would be far better platforms.

While I think what people are doing to those wonderful old Supras is ghastly, I do have to say this:

Some people just cant and probably will never be able to afford an OEM Super Car. For some of us, the only way we can get to the next level is by spending what should be Rent money on a new intake system for our Honda CRX, or a fitting a salvaged turbo to our 13 year old Nissan Z.

I know this is a fight that'll go on for ever, but sometimes that part of tuning seems to get forgotten.

(And that thing does put out a pretty awesome noise)

^Anyone who can afford to make his Supra have 1622whp and make it go 216mph obviously isn't short on money. Just on taste.

Agreed, just saying tuners as a whole get to much of a bad rap some times, just for being tuners.

*Editing just to say I know RC45 is a tuner, and does some gorgeous work.

^Jelly bean! There certainly is bad taste involved when someone dumps that much money on a Supra. Supras themselves are overpriced anyway.

I wish I was a money making tuner.. :P

I am more of a money burner. Where I can I build it/bolt it on myslef - where I cant I pay someone else to.

But dont kid yourself - any 1500rhwp Supra has at least $150,000 to $200,000 buried in the life of the project.

And the record breaking Supras in Texas are all owned by very wealthy guys with garages full of super cars hehe.

And the really fast supra's are big money cars.
Rc45 you are right about the money this is about what you need to build really quick supra
