and a burnout is burning your tires to warm them before a race or breaking traction at launch so the tires would spin and burn....you are just driving in unorganized circles skidding causing the tires to burn







that is a burnout
damn is that ever a burnout

You have a V-8 in your car??? I have a rotary.
That's a 3 rotor, Jim. Most of us don't have those.

I have no problem with a V8 swap into a dead RX7. I just wouldn't use a domestic V8. I'd swap in a modded Lexus V8 or something similar. I don't like domestics.

No real hate coming from me.





Nice burnouts though, both by the Turbo II and the LS1 powered 7.

Just to throw this out all the 'burnout' pictures have line locks on the vehicles.....my moms minivan will do a burnout if you e-brake it.....so what...Burnouts look cool but um I try to avoid them at the line. The V8 is easier to break loose off the line the rotary is easier to spin once you have it going...(might have something to do with the 2500rpm readline difference). They are both fun as **** to drive. Hide a v8 and take out vette and its cool as ****....roll up beside a vette scream off boosting 24lbs and your BOV screaming its still cool as ****. Its different but not bad or good. By the way the LS1 gets better gas mileage but considering the company I don't think anyone gives a flying flip. Having worked on a rotary and currently working on an LS1 I enjoy good and bads of each one. The rotary is different which adds prestige You can get a shitload of power from them especially considering their size. However the LS1 will build much more power and torque...as it should for its size. Just stuff to think about

Atually I dont think a LS1 will make more than a 13B without bore/stroking it out and at that point its not really a LS1 anymore.



Whats the most anyone knows of for a LS1 that has NOT been bored/stroked? Then on top of that, whats the most anyone knows about where the LS1 internals havent been touched at all?
