Default Whos tC2 is this? Drag racing ("Autoclub dragway")

The first two videos are white tC2's and the third is a grey tC2. These videos are from "Autoclub dragway"

Sweet, do you know who's grey one that is? And are they on here? Wheel hop sucks, but toyota did build good motor mounts/tranny mounts, except for the one up front infront of the radiator fan. Oh yea, have you heard about "toyotafest a.k.a T.O.R.C? Its suppose to happen this weekend Saturday the 14th @ queen mary/ long beach. If I knew before hand, I would of flown out their. If you go, can you get some photos of the "oemaudioplus" tC2? They are the ones who were testing the hks exhaust videos with the s5:f wheels. Thanks.

I hate the wheel hop on the tc2 its ridiculos. i actually lowered the psi to 28 in the front and left the back at 32 and i reduced it a bit and actually got the same exact 0-60 time 6.93. Im really considering getting the motor mount by torque solutions. Would it be smart to get 17in rims on the tc2 and just drop it?

Ahh hopefully you can get off work and see all the rare toyota's end even see the LFA in person if you havent already. Im sure the other tC2 owner will be back, hopefully you can meet that person. I have yet to see a tC2 @ my track, so I'm always solo lol.


You have a few options in my opinion..

1. Get better tires for your 18's. The stock ones weigh to much..
2. Get 17's, hence they are lighter, plus more tire options.. A lot more...
3. Get the motor mount from "Papa_Bear" which will help...

It sucks that the tC1 wheels wont work due to different bolt pattern. You can try the camry, lexus is250 rims, **evo 8-9 rims(yes they work.. and their are 17's also)***, scion xB2 rims. The smaller the rim the more tire options in most applications. 16's are the lowest you can go on the tC2..

I recommend Hankook RS3's which the cheapest i've seen is $103.00. These tires are highly used in auto crossing, good for dd also. Or you can get nitto invos/n555's which are an awesome tire also..
