i would think an rx-7 owner would appreciate a low weight, medium power- high rpm vehicle with prety good handling.



(although at high speeds it's supposedly unstable and inferior to a viper or even z06, edmudns.com video)
fd's weigh less

I tried to get that damn FD owner over here to explain better but it looks like he doesn't want to sign up.

Ok, it's me. I guess this board has been down for a couple of days with the server transition.



This is the story...



We went from 35. I was in 2nd (very laggy) he was in 1st (right in his VTEC). I was pulling on him hard in 4th gear, but he let off as soon as i put about a car on him. You can't see well in that vid because of the 11-second Civic in the way.



I was running around 15-16 psi which is about 400 RWHP (my dyno results). The NSX has more than just Nitrous. He has some engine work because he regularly beats low 12/high 11 second cars. My tune is very conservative, and I realize that my car could be making more power at 16 psi. I drive the car daily, so I can't be breaking stuff.



Hope that sheds some light on the subject.

I don't know what that is, but it ain't no race that's for sure.

It doesn't seem like they were even going all that fast.

I knew something was up with the way that race went down, but no offense to you or your ride.
