Yeah, these Toyota Supras have a 3.0 liter bmw inline 6 that already goes 9's with tune in another car trim that's 400 pounds heavier.

I've seen the BMW M4 in person go 9.90's with tune all stock internals and stock turbo.
My question is what other automatic trans can you run, will only need 3 gears since it so light and has massive 700-800 foot pounds of torque.

This will be AAA/SA or FS/B at least....

Now, can LarryHill fit in it to be #1 qualifier at indy next year?

That's a joke because this car fitted with a roll cage and full interior would mean you'd have to be a 12 year old girl to squeeze into this car..

Interested to see what transmission and rearend is in use. Not aware of any Toyota live axle or automatic transmission that the aftermarket supports. All the fast Toyota Supras in drag racing use Ford 9" and powerglides.

Also will be interested in how the factory water to air intercooler is used with modifications.

Okay then...Legal..no problem.

It will be in the guide soon. The Supra was built with the current rule book in-hand.

Daren,
So you needed to work with Toyota for the specs on the car. Right? Ray

Yes. It has taken two years to get to this point. Both Toyota and the NHRA have been involved from day one. Getting a new combination accepted is a long process in these times...

(The M4 has a much stouter version of the BMW inline-six than the Supra/Z4)

Is this going to be built at TRD and sold like the COPO program?

No. This is the production car. It will run in the normal Stock Classes.
