Supra goes 228 MPH in the standing start texas mile!

[IEATV8S]

Have to hand it to that Supra, beat the Hennessey TT Viper by over 5 MPH and in a lower class, and now holds the overall standing start 1 mile record. ! The video shows the run from inside the car. Unbelievable, the car is spinning its tires through the first 3 gears!

A bit of traction control, and the MPH would likely have been even higher.
Hennessey was probably distracted, looking over his shoulder for another po'd customer....

Yep it definitely needs some traction control as there was a lot of wasted effort in that pass. I'm surprised Hennessey is still breathing after some of the horror stories I have heard about his business practices
