Ouch! Thought I had bad luck...
I get a lot of teasing from my friends because I seem to break something everytime I go to the track. I always felt a little unlucky until I saw this guy:

Ya I put stock ones back on. Haven't repaired the quarter panel yet, that will be a spring project most likely. I still drive it a good bit though. It may not be as pretty as it was but it will still put you back in the seat. :D

Actually right now the Supra is on jackstands in my garage. I broke the "indestructible" tranny the last time I was at the track. Yep imports, muscle cars, Corvettes... I can break anything. I mean people run in the 9s with the same setup I have in the Supra with no problems. Go figure. Anyway before it broke I had the Supra in the high 11s right at 120mph. I am hoping to get to mid to low 11s with the stock stuff and some tuning.
