How hard are you driving your Supra?

[HoosierRN]

Title says it all, I'm curious how these cars are holding up to those of us who have lead feet outside of the track. I drive in sport mode everywhere I go and I drive it pretty hard. I don't redline constantly, but I am always gunning it to hear that turbo spool that I've grown addicted to hearing coming from an N/A setup. Besides letting it come up to temp, I don't baby the car at all.

Let it come up to temp and give it hell. I mostly beat on the car at the track, but I always beat on it. B58s are reliable.

Try not to hit anything.

I drive in normal to and from work and outside of that usually in sport unless I’m on a date and driving on a shitty highway. I do let the rpm’s drop and stay under 4-5k but definitely push it. No oil consumption issues on my ‘22 so far at 5k miles.

I drive it like I stole it.

I drive her casually most of the time (since I rarely drive the car I don't know if she's going to bite me in the arse or not) in GT style... but I do enjoy the torque quietly (?) at times..

I drive it relatively hard for the first 4 gas indicators or so then I revert back to a responsible motorist.

Harder than viagra.

Beating the hell out of this car like it's a 2002 honda civic. I'm 36k miles now driving all year round in New England weather.

They hold up very well with track abuse. I'm sure they're fine on the street.

I beat the dog piss out of my car. Very hard for me to keep it under 100. Buried the rev limiter too many times. And hit top speed in it. Nothing broken yet if we aren’t talking about slight oil consumption

I try to keep rpms above 4K and beat the shit out of the engine like a gremlin because it makes cool sounds

Once the engine is warm, I drive it like a stole it. We get winter here for half a year and why spend money on a car and modding it if you're not going to enjoy it...

It's the only car in the parking spot, so it does have some grocery-getter usage, but not a daily since I work from home. I don't drive it hard if I'm doing errands in downtown Seattle.

If it hits the highway however, at the minimum, it's going faster than 95% of traffic. And if it's a planned spirited drive or track day, it's getting pushed hard.

I beat this car like my dad beat me with bad grades.
