He is using an HKS sequential 6 speed mission.

I think there are about 6 employees at Super Now if I recall correctly.

Top Fuel Racing's name isn't too hot around the rotary community here, but those guys can build some serious rotary. They have some of the fastest drag 7's. I knew that 56 sec would be ran in no time with their new power plant. I'm happy for them. This should motivate more fc guys, i sure hope so.

Thanks for all the vids. I knew SuperNow hit 57.5 but 56!!!??? That's awesome. Gotta love the small shop that comes out of no where to set a new record for the FC. Make me want to get SuperNow parts to show my support.

It looks like Haya has improved his car and driving quite a bit since the last time I spoke with him. His best lap time on TC2000 is 1'02"162 now. He's closing in on under a minute, running with a t04s and making 318ps. This car is so simple yet so hot! I think it's the blue... I hate blue, but I love this car. Garage BB's over Knight Sports's Flap any day.

Haya's car looks stable especially at that corner exit when you wana punch the gas at the end. But man his line is just a bit awkward, especially at corner entry, i don't think he needs to be on decel for that long. Otherwise good car.

Here's a professional driver's line:
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/lOJjBrh6-qg&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/lOJjBrh6-qg&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Not an fc, but this is my favorite BNR32: Garage Saurus R32.

More random shots, trying to keep it Tsukuba related...

Much big-name tuner shop demo cars are retired now due to the dying fc market. Boooooo.... But you can still find good looking private owned cars like these. Some are from smaller shops you've never heard of.
