Beyonce 3.0*

Taken from my post on supraforums.

So I truly believe this is the last revamping of my car. I know you guys have all heard it before but the car is exactly where I want her to be.
We had a head gasket issue that prevented us from making the race at super lap battle this year. We will be back out at buttonwillow early
next year to attempt to smash the record again. There are a few people and companies that helped pull this car together.

Boostlogic: By far this new turbo set up is incredible. Compared to the regular 67 dbb I had last year, the new billet turbo that Boost Logic is offer is off the shelf scary. 500+rwhp CA ****ty 91 pump gas, 18psi, mustang dyno. Zohair is the MAN!

KBR performance: Karlo tirelessly wrenched on the car to get it where it needed to be. The car would not be where it's at w/o him.

GSC Motorsports: Greg's stage 1 cam gave us 30rwhp more under the curve than our previous HKS set up. This is by far one of the biggest improvements we had with the car.

MVP Motorsports: What can I say about Dusty that hasn't been said already. We asked him early on to support our silly dreams of taking a supra through turns and he's done nothing but provide the best service and support in the industry.

AMB Aero Design: Andrew (gixxer_drew) is a wealth of knowledge. His expertise and experience in the industry gives our team the competitive edge time and time again. (andrew.brilliant@gmail.com)

TEM Machine Shop: Rich turns out the craziest head work we've seen. The machine work along w/ Boost Logic and GSC gave us the power we needed.

HB SPEED John , danny and crew helped fabricate the brackets and ducting needed to cool the car and hold up the splitter. Thanks guys!

Individuals:

Matt Andrews: Our fearless driver has done so much development work on the car over the years that i'd be ashamed not to give him a shout out.
Mike Louie & Drew Kim: I don't know how to thank you guys for tirelessly trouble shooting the car till morning. Your support is always appreciated!
Leh Keen: Leh was kind of enough to offer to drive the car and graciously even offered his support to tear apart the head to get the car on the race track.
I can't say enough nice things about this guy.
Jason Liu and Evan Shiozaki: Thank you guys for driving all the way down in hopes to support the car this year. We will get another chance early next year.
Justin Nenni Justin spent countless hours working to get the car where it needed to be. Thank you so much.


If I forgot anyone , don't worry I'm just lacking sleep. I will continue updating this thread.

I apologize to all my sponsors for not being able to make this years race. We will be back once the motor issue is addressed and do our best at setting a new record. Video will soon follow.
