[Supras] Time To Tinker Various Engin Mod Questions MIII

[Jim Jobe]

Yeah, Skyline is cool, but I'm pretty calm even while sitting
in the passenger seat, laptop in lap, street tuning a 9.88 144mph
mk4 on drag ET's on the road.  Long story, it was last minute
the day before the race and we couldn't get ahold of our favorite
dyno owner.  Anyways the slicks let loose around 70 up to 120,
often causing the rear to slip out a bit.  We hit 160-170 way
too many times to have gotten away with it.  I will say the owner
is a damned good driver.  My ~600rwhp mk3 felt pansy weak after
that.  :(

Oh well, I have bigger brakes than he does now...well, for now.
