evo 9 will have more potential than the 8, BUT will be very hard to tune because of the new mivec head. Even then a tuned supra will still beat u on the highway.
Stock supra engine are know to be able to handle close to 1000hp.

not possible to beat them unless you have a bigger engine.

and I believe thier 'porky' weight is actually beneficienal when racing from a roll.

supras are cool. they sound nice and are amazingly sexy.

Yea that supra tookoff on the cosworth bigtime. It handled well I guess, but its those straightaways that the supra will shine.

Your gonna need flash, exhaust and boost controller.Then you will be able to hang with him from a roll.I have a vid of me racing a supra from a roll,but you cant put the videos of street racing up over here.This is stating if he is basically stock.

Yeah, that's a good way to beat him, let him upgrade a bit more without upgrading his tires... Then you'll smoke him cuz his tires will just sit and spin, I forgot about that... There's that National Supra meet in Vegas, and it HAPPENED to be the same weekend as a Spring Mountain track race event, so I was down there in my stock Evo, and my dad was there with his partially modded S2k, and we did a 3 way race against a guy who CLAIMED to have 500rwhp in his Supra, my dad's tires spun for a bit, his spun for awhile, my 4 grabbed like a **** and I was gone, then the Supra flew past me... Traction is key, can't go fast if you can't get power to the road
