i really think i screwed my self over this time if he wins he gets to keep a part of my car and i know what hes going to go after, my wing. guss ill be calling it off
Ummmmm, ok, this thread calls for some questions to be answered.



What year is your RX-7? It sure as hell ain't a 1997, my friend .



What mods do you have aside from your wing and twin turbos?



And why would you offer a part off your car when you don't know much about the car you're going to race? One of my favorite Rage Against the Machine songs...."Know Your Enemy."



GN's are :smirk: evil man....good luck, you're going to need it...

I wasnt going to touch the 1997 part, I wasnt sure how long Mazda was selling these cars in this country and just changing the model year.

i had no idea about the 97 rx7 not being sold in America, mine is titled as being a 97 any idea why they did that? is it something rare? or could it just be a typo when they sent the new title in? eather way im going to go ahead and race him tonight but no for parts only a friendly little race, im not looking forward to loosen but if i dont run i will be labled a chicken. guss im stuck between a rock and a hard spot

ok i just got my *** handed to me, he stoped by the house a few mins ago and we went out on the parkway, we lined up on a small streatch and we lanched, i launched at 3500 rpms and got the jump on him, that did not last for long he picked his front left tire off the ground and stomped me by about 9 or 10 cars, on the way back he got up beside of me at 40 and started spooling, we puntched it and i got the jump on him because he was spinning but he got me by about 5 cars that time



afterwards we spent alittle time talking before he left his car runs 11.60 and thats only on 20 psi and 100 octane and his car is capable of pushing 25psi with 108 octane with out detionation useing a xylene and 100 octane mix



as for the dates go i found a inspection tag from last year saying its a 95 TT, why would my title and the last owners say it was a 97? yall dont think it could have been stolen and then shipped over seas?

In the 17 minutes since your last post, you went out, raced, and talked to the guy after, ran home and posted again to tell us?

Go blow smoke up someone else's ***
