Toyota Supra Hybrid @ Macau street circuit

[ClubAverage]

I would love to drive this track!

[ionsunteu]

this car had kers before it was cool

[siralanlordsugar]

That voice at 7:00 is so familiar, is that Radio Le Mans' John Hindy commentating

[Jah2070]

Amazing technology

[LyrikalFuture17]

The hairpin on the macau circuit is probably the hardest in the world

[755hp]

Supra (meaning) = to surpass, to go beyond

This car lives up to its name.

Supra for ever!

[Sliksing013]

hahahah the chings can't drive they got da white boy!!

[MENFOERHELVETE]

I agree, it was, contruary to popular belief, the scottish who invented and perfected the art of drifting. Its not a coincidence that the all american Toyota Motor Corp. is the leading manufacturer of cars today.

[bark1986]

hey is this circuit on PGR 4?

[afannell]

Is it a hybrid V8 engine?

[nyocok]

Why that car stop at the corner and need to push!

[ianzeiring]

doesnt have reverse gear! thats a real race car

[adamgm84]

@nyocok probably because the car cant turn that sharply, with the wheel cranked all the way :)

not enough steering angle

only took 1 year for a response???? lol

[wardogmobius]

@adamgm84 This supra won the 2007 Tokachi 24 Japan. What do you meand it doesnt have handling? THink again....LOL

[adamgm84]

@wardogmobius if i remember correctly there is 1 corner where it cannot corner sharp enough at the low speed entry so people have to push it. obviously not setup for that course i guess

i own an mkiv so im quite aware of their handling in stock form. i cannot imagine a better weight distributed, lighter, slightly more powerful one

here it is look at 2:30

[wardogmobius]

I own a 1997 Twin Turbo Supra Manual transmission. Im very aware of the car design and potential. I love it so much Im amazed every time I see it. Yeah this supra is not setup for this course.

[adamgm84]

@wardogmobius look and listen to around 7:00 aswell :)

[wardogmobius]

@adamgm84 This supra won the 2007 Tokachi 24 Japan. What do you meand it doesnt have handling? THink again....LOL

[mattador2792]

@nyocok There were people in the corner and his oversteer was to bad for him to keep moving, so he had to stop. Its a nasty turn!

[frankodelic]

i've got a 2004 supra (non-turbo), would love to convert the thing to electric. it's probably too damn heavy though.

[HiImDino]

that makes loads of sense cause they stopped production in 1998 and are just starting again with the 08 or 09 im not quite sure

[ghostjaguar]

Sorry, no supra. But there is a new beast in the works. won't be ready for a while tho.

[kurthurtig]

is the V8 only to produce electricity or are the electric motors in addition to the V8?

[khrisinfo]

IT For Real.

[tsport100]

It's a parrallel hybrid so the motor and transmission layout is normal. The electric motors collect energy during braking (just like a Prius) into a corner and store it in fast charge capacitors. Heading out of a corner that power is reapplied through the electric motors adding 230hp to the V8s 450hp (total 680hp)to boost acceleration and save fuel.

Should win hands down at Lemans.

[khrisinfo]

I going to that in my Sport car. thacks

[breakmyface]

You have great english.

[khrisinfo]

Are for real.
