1400hp Scion tC AWD Time Attack running a 2az-FE

1200hp Scion tC FWD 4 time Unlimited class and record holder at about 10 tracks across the US running a 2az-FE also of course. That's the most popular one since it's been around the longest of the two.

The other thing people tend to forget when they make comments about not putting the power down to the ground is that race cars have something called Boost-by-Gear (which is what I'll be doing to mine). Rado's tC has a Scrammble boost button and a BOOYA Button.

Scrammble boost is the brief increase of the boost pressure obviously taking the car up to perhaps 40-60lbs of boost. The BOOYA button though.....that button is setup that when pressed, it will take boost to whatever the atmospheric environment will allow the boost to reach. That can be as high as 80psi (not an exact quote), but it's to give you an idea of what it's for. That car is INSANELY fast for a FWD.

He was two seconds slower in his FWD tC compared to the AMS Evo X when they came to my home track.

AMS Evo X holds the track record here with a 1:01. Rado's FWD tC ran a 1:03.

You are considered fast here when you run a 1:10, so just to give you an idea of the speed bracket these cars run in. 1:10 is cooking around this track....can't imagine a 1:01-1:03.
