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

Amazing technology

@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!

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.

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

@adamgm84 This supra won the 2007 Tokachi 24 Japan. What do you meand it doesnt have handling? THink again....LOL
is the V8 only to produce electricity or are the electric motors in addition to the V8?

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.
