What did you do to your Supra today?

A 2.24 60' isn't just tires. Let's get you some launching lessons. Someone has my post around here somewhere, right?

I’m using your technique from that post. Pump the brake pedal, hold gas around 3k rpm and let her rip in 2nd. I know I’m fucking up the shifting points but also the tires burn 2nd thru 3rd sometimes 4th. Maybe a big burnout to warm them up, IDK…been a long time since I raced…

Yeah, lower tire pressure. What tires do you have? You shouldn't burn -that- much.

@Shelby Miles what tires would you recommend? And size?

@Shelby Miles I don't understand? It's over 14 second 1/4, that's terrible!

A 14.25 at 47 mph. He hit the brakes after the 1/8th

I didn’t even notice that, but 8.x at 94 isn’t exactly screaming

Coated Seats, Boot Liner, and partially footwells and head liner too (wherever I could reach without risking overspray on trim) with GTechniq l1 AB v3, the newest version which does waterproof, anti mould and antibacterial fabric coating.

It's a yearly treatment more or less, I used it (v2) in 2022 when I bought the car new, and I was genuinely impressed that it wasn't a gymmick (see image below for alcantara water beading) so decided to do it again now the car is 1 year old.

Also tested water beading now before applying, and it was gone, so product effect did expire as expected in just under a year.

It is a nasty job IMO, as it smells a Lot, you need gloves and mask, strong alcohol smell which will dwell in the car for several days and requires a lot of time to dry (24 hrs) currently airing it out.

My car sits long periods 2-3 weeks at a time in a damp garage even though I run a dehumidifier and try to ventilate frequently. I have a 'mould phobia' if that's a thing lol, so trying to avoid any surprises,
/ reduce risk, just in case...
