In Aus, we have a magazine that has DVD's of cars in Japan, and in Volume 2 and 5 the Blast Racing soarer is running against the HKS supra, they both run 7's. But gee the Soarer sounds A LOT angrier then the Supra. You maybe able to buy a DVD from here but remember here in Aus we have PAL, not NTSC. As for the turbonetics Celica, I havent found anything!

just an article, but no video. I would like to know more. Its not that hard to copy their work and stuff it in a SC400. Or should i say it should be SC520.

Didn't realize the Scrantons ran a 5.3 liter V8 compared to Wakita's 4.9 liter V8.
As for those videos I'm sure I can find them out here in SoCal. I'd just have to hit up Torrance or Lil Tokyo.
I'll see next time I'm out there.

Blast Racing Burnout Video. I had the sound for the run at one time, I think.

flea-- thanks, that was great.. sound was great also.. its to bad the v8 class was pushed out of the import drag scene.. i can see how other racers felt threatened. especialy when the 200 mph run came so easy for the v8 guys...
