SVB supra 900hp+ vs. cobra, mustang..

[Solidus]

This Supra is sick !! (A bit old videos, but worth seeing twice, lol)

• Video 1: 43mb - Supra vs. Shelby Cobra
  http://www.hsvracing.com/~upload/Tig...BMYFRIEND.mpeg

• Video 2: 6,3mb - Supra, "Stang" and Z06
  http://elit3.com/upload/SVBvsStang2.wmv

Notice on video 2: end of the video where they race, look closly where the supra is, the "middle" car is covering supra so you dont see the supra untill the end.

Enjoy!

Dang, that Supra was long gone

Given the supra is extremely fast i really don't think it stands a chance at a real race, you know from a stop like they do it on the track. when it really matters. On another note I am getting sick of supras they are getting to be pretty gay. Don't get me wrong they are fast but have you ever stoped to think about how many people have them. they are pretty rare and extremly expensive, ya the cobra in this video is expensive and rare to i won't leave that out. But for the money you would spend on a supra and to make it descently fast why would you. I would much rather have a new vette, 04 cobra, 02 ss camaro,and im not just naming off domestics how about a new 350Z, new G35, and hell why not an s2000 they are slow but still cool. Still why wouldn't you get an Evo8, or STI, if you are gonna dump money into it. But thats my opnion.

Heres a few reasons:
1. A vette, Cobra, and Camaro, considering its eight cylinders, is extremely expensive when it comes to gas mileage considering the current soaring gas prices.
2. a 350z and G30 are nice cars but have weak internals. It'd also cost a heck of a lot to soup up just as a supra does. The supra is also a rare car unlike the other vq35des'.
3. An s2000 isn't slow for a N/A four cylinder. Sti's are common but would be really nice to own regardless.
How do you define a real race? Le Mans road racing isn't a real race because it doesn't take place at a drag strip? Nascar isn't a real race because it goes in circles?
I'd still rather get a supra over any of the above cars you listed.

i would love a 04 cobra or any mustang for that matter, but a supra. i mean come on, who wouldn't want that. "pretty gay"?? is that because they would dust most other cars. i dunno, but it seems like the supra is a good car for the money.

Cobras, camaros, vettes is so ordinary in the US, all the videos ive seen from people who made DVD´s of street racing, 90% chance you will see a camaro (a few), and the supra is very rare in the EU and pretty much in the US too.

The only problem is that supra spins easily even with TCS, ASM on ect..

And the supras design is very nice, nice and smooth shapes, well i prefere new bodykit on it, but i dont mean like a rice supra. But its definitely not "gay", gay cars is rice cars..

And ofcourse supra is pretty cheap to tune compared to other cars.

this doesn't neccesarily pertain to this thread, but what classifies a car as a "ricer?" i always thought it was an import but i have since realized that i was dead wrong in that assumption. what places a car into the category of ricer? sorry

[ALTVR]

fast

[Gateway]

in my opinion, "rice" is making the car LOOK fast, but not actually GO fast.

ie: civics, etc with stickers, fart cans, rediculous wings, etc etc.

This is my personal opinion.

[Solidus]

Yeah i agree with you.



WTF! a supra wing on a civic

[95cord]

^ thats not a civic.

[Solidus]

lmao, your right, i dunno why i said that, i hesitate..

[KustmAce]

Jeez...

Im afraid no one cares about what you think of Supras. Why can no one ever just enjoy a video?

[BiggerJon]

a fast car=a fast car
rice=a slow car dreaming of being fast

[Omega_5]

i don't mean to piss off you surpa fans here.... sure supras are fast, but this is the same BS that all these videos play.... they pit a 900HP surpa against a measly blown cobra (by far less than 900...lol). I bet that surpa has four times the money under the hood as that cobra does.
As for the vid.... it was alright, though.
