12 sec Toyota Tacoma
Based on a stock 2011 Tacoma X-Runner, the standard body and chassis were paired with a modified Tundra-based 5.7-liter V-8 and six-speed automatic transmission. A Toyota Racing Development (TRD) Supercharger Kit was bolted on to the V8 and brought the SEA certified power to 504-horsepower with 550 pound-feet of torque. To make it work, the stock Tundra rear axle with a 4.3:1 ratio and 10.5-inch ring gear was narrowed by 5.7-inches to fit the Tacoma rear-track width. To maximize traction, the build team added a TRD prototype mechanical limited-slip differential fabricated by Eaton. No special mapping was done to the V8 and it runs on 91-octane gas.
After a few runs down the quarter-mile track, Antron Brown's best run came in at 12.018 seconds at 116.57-mph.
