Pretty cool. But not surprising. It makes double the Hp.

I was just reading about a quad turbocharged Murci in some magazine that Heffner is working on. Should be insane.

the whole time it seems as if the lambo driver is trying to get the jump on the supra, but to no avail... for the most part this isnt a race its just to see how badly his supra will take off on his lambo... 1200hp 35k car vs 640hp 380k car = cool vid

I think it would. The supra is a great track performer, despite being a GT car.


But I too would still take a lambo. The sound, chassis layout, etc makes it more unique. More power doesn't necessarily make me happier
