If any of you follow import drags at all, you know there is now a 200mph Celica running 7 flat in the 1/4.... of course its powered by a V8.
I wonder if a 13B or 20B will break these landmarks (maybe this has already happened, I dont know). To me that would be a lot more impressive than a V8 powered car. The fastest times I've seen posted were from Siguel racing who ran 7.33@179 with a 20B and Abel Ibarra 7.58@180 with a 13B. Abel is kind of struggling this year but I think he should be able to hit 200 with the 20B in. On a side note, Ari Yallon of Rotary Performance is no longer the king in street tire class. Now he has to find a way to run 9 flat to beat Mazurowski's Supra. B) |
correct me if im wrong...but the celica your referring to is backed by the manufacturer...hence lots of r&d..testing...etc....
whereas....of which im fairly certain... the 7s runnin these import series are privateers... |

B) 1 =Its powered by a Tundra V8... 2 =The only thing Çelica"on this car is the fiber glass, 3 =If I got a tube frame made to hold a First gen shell..and put a 787b style engine in it ..would they accept it? They are already talking **** about the 20B that is being ran... BTW this Celica is based 10 mins from me..in Land O Lakes FL Celica |

I can't believe they're not going to allow (cant remember his ****** name) with the 20B naturally aspirated first gen to compete in the all motor class next year unless he goes down to a 13B yet they allow these V8's to compete and they have tube frame supra's competing with tube frame FWD 4 cylinders which isnt fair either... I can't imagine what the 787B powerplant would do in a nice, light drag car with the proper gearing. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/moon.gif |

I saw Siguel run a 7.1 down here in houston.
|

|
pretty sad the v-8 tundra celica can only run a 7 sec quarter mile, im ean for having 8 cylinders, why isnt it running 5 sec quartermiles? o well, its gonna get banned too. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/violin.gif
