I know its not a Toyota but it might be of interest to a few of you. After a very sucessfull 2010 we have decided to take our Evo 7 alot further and are going for full drag spec. Our personal best this year was 9.27 @ 155MPH, 8's are coming very soon.

Here are a few pics of how the car sits at the moment, we have just fitted our new M/T tyres last week but we wont get a chance to try them untill next year.

We will be updating this post regularly with the work and development progress.

Going to those events is a disaster with the amount of cars waiting to go up the strip, in 2005 when i done it i got 3 runs in 8 hours, i will be going to a test and tune day or something like that.

Maby see you there.
