:rice:

Just wondering, what can an RX-7 (s5 90) TurboII beat or at least challenge? With or without mods.



I'm thinking an M3 would be a good race for the RX-7. Heard it was quite good against a Porsche 924, no idea about 911 (whatever year). Hjow about the Supra? Or the Volvo T5 (cops use them in the UK, tuned of course! )



Anything else it can whipe the *** off or keep up with?



Please say whether the RX-7 will be stock or modified (if so how much).



Thanks... this should be interesting!



One one last car to challenge.... (uk).... Ford Sierra RS Cosworth Turbo (2.0 4cyl 240bhp 4x4)

afaik 'tuned out taurus' is quite far from the truth, i believe the sho has a completely different engine that is from yamaha.
