Congratulations to c-west ek - MR2Board's December 2006 Showcase MR2!
TD Autowerkes Toyota MR2 Turbo Drag Car

Click the below thumbnails for fullsize pictures:

Regardless of model owned or desired, every MR2 enthusiast craves one thing - speed. Tony and his friends at TD Autowerkes have done what many of us can only dream of- they've surpassed the "magical 10." Posting a 9.72 second quarter mile pass at 144mph, the TD Autowerkes car now appears to be the fastest MR2 in the world. Even those who stick to their belief that the MR2 belongs on a road full of curves cannot deny TD Autowerkes extraordinary achievement.

If you'd like to learn more about TD Autowerkes and their amazing MR2 Turbo, visit their website at TD Autowerkes and don't forget to watch their record setting run on YouTube at

Congratulations to Tony and TD Autowerkes for building such an amazing MR2, and most of all, for being MR2Board's Showcase MR2 for December 2006

Happy MR2ing, Tony!

Good work, I can't fathom going that fast

Hiighboost2 · 12-01-2006, 06:32 AM

Very nice 2, Congrats!

tlohman · 12-01-2006, 01:35 PM

Very nice! A little squirrely (sp?) on that first run but it went pretty straight after that

MR2_Josh · 12-01-2006, 05:13 PM

Any engine pics? I see you aren't running the same intercooler set-up as you used to (with it venting out of the trunk lid). Possibly pics of that as well.

Congrats guys on both the breaking into the 9's and the showcase!

Congrats!
