  1. SPIED: Mystery Toyota Supra Spotted Testing - 2025 GRMN Model?

    Bigger and better looking spoiler than the mule posted a few months back. Also a hood scoop has been added.

    Speaking of CR-S.. I ran them in the rain last week for the first time and they were feckin worthless. I don't think this is a major surprise, but I expected a little more. The car was totally undriveable. Packed it in after 2 miserable sessions.
  3. Insurance question --Those with modifications, please chime in

    Depends on the state; at fault vs. no fault. And then there's subrogation. With a good policy it doesn't really matter. So... Unless you have an agreed value or some other boutique policy, chances are you are 99.9% fuct when it comes to a payout on a total loss. Most big box providers...
  4. Insurance question --Those with modifications, please chime in

    I use Grundy for agreed value coverage for all of my worthwhile cars. They've never asked about mods, HP, or even mileage and have never questioned the value I assigned. All they've required is a few pictures. They do have stringent qualification requirements, though. Technically it is a...
  5. Square set up using stock wheels?

    An acquaintance of mine runs the stock 2.0 wheels for a cheap squared setup. I'm guessing it's two pairs of 2.0 rears.

    Approximately how many heat cycles is 4.5 days? I had 13 at VIR and then at CMP a few weeks later they were already a second off the AR-1. AR-1 for me started to fall off at 10 and by 15 they were about worthless. Looking at the data my quickest laps are at 30-32psi so I try to stay at...

    Surprised to hear the V730 last longer! Different cars, tracks, etc.. so all FWIW... My experience with the AR-1 vs CR-S v2 is a little different. I never had any issue with AR-1 and vibrations but they definitely howled on the street. Life was abysmal but they were quick. I just switched...

    Ignoring the price difference how would you compare the V730 to the CR-S? RE: ECF -- I'm guessing the 200 rating is a product market fit strategy. They are known as an "endurance" 200 which they definitely achieve, but pace-wise they are a bit more on par with a 300TW. If they were...

    I haven't run the 730's but I ran 2 sets of ECF on my C8 and C7Z. They are the best true dual purpose tire, IMO. Wear like iron, predictable, fairly consistent through a 20 min session, work ok in the wet, quiet on the street, etc.. On my C8 I did 8-9 track days and 6000 street miles and they...
  10. If it wasnt for the supra, what car to get????

    The only thing they have in common is 4 wheels and a steering wheel. They are so completely different in every aspect. If you can give me some specifics I can compare/contrast. The C8 is a phenomenal road car/cruiser; if it had adaptive cruise control it would be nearly perfect. As far as...
  11. If it wasnt for the supra, what car to get????

    Well... I bought a Supra, bought a C8, bought a C7 Z06 M7. Tracked all 3. Sold the Supra.. 🤷‍♂️ That said, I will have another Supra -- a 6sp -- at some point, I'm sure. There's really nothing else in the 50-60k range that checks all of the boxes.
  12. Titan7 forged vs Apex forged

    I've owned both. Apex is better quality and design.

    Fair enough and I forgot they were rated as a 100TW. Most of the super 200s don't come in the sizes I need so my options are pretty slim.
  14. Race Tracking Your Supra - Information exchange

    Cool - If I can get 5ish worthwhile days out of these I'll be stoked. I had similar odd wear patterns but it didn't seem to have any meaningful effects. I think they'd be a great time attack tire because they are quick and ready to rip, but yeah.. the life is abysmal.. I have high...
  15. Race Tracking Your Supra - Information exchange

    That wear doesn't look terrible. I'd think they'd hold up a lot better on a lighter car. My experience on my C7Z with 305f 325r is they are indeed loud, but not as obnoxious as say an R888R. They get quieter with less tread. 🤣 This was my first set at 16 heat cycles and a few hundred street...
  16. Race Tracking Your Supra - Information exchange

    I think that's what I was experiencing a few times. I was already hard on the brakes but the pedal felt weird, almost crunchy, and when I pressed harder out of desperation there was more there.
  17. Race Tracking Your Supra - Information exchange

    Sounds very similar to Ice Mode that happens on C7 Corvettes (maybe prior gens too, but have never invoked on my C8). Think late brake, HARD and fast stab on the brakes -- the pedal moves a bit and gets hard like stepping on a block of wood and you have maybe 50-60% of the anticipated brake...
  18. This is the 2020 mid-engine Chevy Corvette / C8 Corvette Z06 revealed

    That image dates back to 2019. The current ZR1 mules have the center exhaust vs outboard.
  19. How Do I Burnout in My Supra?

    Where is @LS3Twins anyway? Been MIA for a long time.
