89 Supra vs 71 383 Camaro

We were cruising up 172nd and saw a badass looking yellow 71ish Camaro waiting at the lights on Fraser Highway - skinnies up front, fat tires in the back, which I later saw were ET streets. Hopeing to get a little action we hung a left and slowly cruised Fraser Highway until the road opened up into two lanes. Perfect timing - the Camaro had caught up to us and aggressivly pulled into the new right hand lane. When the Camaro's nose reached the Supras door, the Camaro dropped the hammer, squatted and roared to life. "Wow, that thing's fast', I commented as the Camaro slowly lost about a car length by the time we had doubled the speed limit.

At the next light we managed a quick chat. It turns out the Camaro runs 10.90's at the track all on a raunchy sounding 383 mill.

Because the boost controller was off, the Supra only hit 24lbs of boost. At full boost, and with the help of an intercooler spray kit the Supra put down 620 to the wheels and 650 torque on the dyno yesterday. This Friday will be it's first foray to the track in its present incarnation. No slicks 'till next year, so It'll probably trap in the low 130's while running low 11's
