I don't know what all he had done but the exhaust tone sounded like *** (no offense guys but I have never heard a nice sounding RX-7 *including mine*) but he took me for a ride in it and I had to carry around a napkin so I didn't drool over his race seats. So we got back to the crowd of people (every sunday a mass of racers meet at a parking lot) and everyone was saying that I should race the RX-7. I look at him and he said "its up to you, if you think you can beat me" I snickered and went to get into my car while the whole parking lot went and got in theirs. We all went out to this two lane road that everyone races on and we got next to eachother. I back up some and do a burnout to get the Nittos nice and warm. Roll back up to the start and we go on 3rd honk. I get him out of the hole by about half a car length and at the top of 4th I had 4 car lengths on him. I don't think he exactly knew what I had done and I don't think that he knew how much I was drooling over his car. This is the first 3rd gen RX-7 I have ever raced and man his turbos sounded evil. One day I will get around to buying me one. Sucks that they get less and less and harder to find each year.

That's okay, man, I've never heard a nice sounding Cobra. There's no accounting for taste.

Nope, he had Nitto 555s not sure if they were Rs or not. But I just got some bolt ons.

Different worlds, bro. I like the sound of my rotary, and not much else. The only things I'll consider are Ferraris, Porsches and the occasional SBC. Even my bud's modified 97 Cobra didn't impress me.
