He sees me from the side of his car but pays me no attention. I guess he's too good for a stock looking GSL-SE.
I then Stomp on 2nd Gear, spinning tires all the way through 60, and then shift to 3rd, pulling at least 8 car lengths on the guy.

i'm just glad you took out an Rx-8 with a Gen I Rx-7 (turbo or not). most of these guys do seem a bit elitist (not a judgment, just an observation) and i think older Rx-7 owners are bound by duty to kick Rx-8-*** whenever possible!
i especially like the "spinning tires all the way through 60"-part.

If you really feel that way, then why would you buy an RX-8?
Were are you guy's coming from with the whole station wagon? I no big fan of the RX-8 but it still making a hell of alot more hp than most station wagons, that I've ever seen. Good kill Direct Freak. Pay no mind to the player hat'ers.

Welp, I love my 8, and I think it's fast enough. There's people that insist on proving their cars are faster for whatever reason. If thats what turns ya on, go ahead. I just dont understand it. I've been looking into doing some work on my car that will make it quite a bit faster, but it's just for my own amusement. Just aint a racer I guess.
Or should I have said Bah! my 8 will take you down bitch!
Uhm... After the supercharger that is

When have you seen it? It's usually in the garage, and I only really drive it at night. If you have a 1st gen, I would have gone to see you.
I have a rotary mechanic/friend who helps me out with questions (and welding), and another who is a Tuner.
What is it you're looking for, I can definately tell you what mechanics to avoid!
