I would run you in my RX-7 if I was anywhere near Michigan. At the track.

A lot of you guys really seem like you don't know what you are talking about?
I have owned a second gen RX-7(Now), a 3rd Gen RX-7, and a 2000 SS 6-speed. Stock for stock, the Camaro would rape all of the other cars. But when I installed a FMIC, standalone ecu, and bolt-ons (exhaust/downpipe/etc.), the RX-7 at 11 lbs. was by far faster than the SS.
I raced a Z28 with exhaust, and tore him up pretty badly, probably 4 cars from 10-100. Stock RX-7's have ran 13.4's. Bolt-ons stock motor/stock ports/ at 13+ lbs. have run low 12's, even dipped into the 11's. A stock turbo car on RX7club.com has ran 10's.
Some of you don't seem to understand what year RX-7 we are talking about? Some say I drove one and this and that and have know idea that we are talking about a 3rd gen. Most of you who say you are beating the hell out of RX-7's that are modded with your stock LS1's, either the car really isn't all that modded, or the car is running like ****, whether it be needing tuning or the motor is weak/near blown.
RX-7's are spectacular cars, and the motors are pretty badass if you know how to work on them. We as Americans, just don't.

Here is my challenge. I will run anyone on here for money, stock for stock. My stock RX-7 vs. your Camaro, Trans Am, even Corvette for that matter. That bitch has 155,000 miles on it, and 225's out back. Let's roll. At the track. I only have an intake, so I guess it isn't stock. But close enough.

I really don't understand why anyone would call bs on this. With full exhaust, intercooler upgrade, air intake, stock twins converted to parallel, 14 psi,pump gas and rich tune(10.9 afr) I went 115 mph in the 1/4.

my stock twin, stock motor rx7 traps 118mph. Thats with 15psi of boost making 360rwhp. I think a ls1 would need heads and cam to keep up or beat me.
I also beat a ws6 when i had a downpipe only (thats about 240rwhp). The ws6 driver had a passenger i was alone. Beat him twice. I am sure if he was a better driver he could have beat me. My point is that these cars are pretty close when in stock or near stock form. its a driver's race. When modded whoever spent the most money wins.

I have since converted it to a more "street friendly" set-up awhile back, and have been contemplating different way's to adapt Tuned Port Injection (without going the Arizona Speed & Marine route). Waiting to get my hands on a used Tunnel Ram from Weiand, injector bosses will eventually be welded in, and, voila, instant Holley Stealth Ram....

I'll have some decent quarter mile times, and trap speeds, once Raceway Park opens in late Febraury. Right now, I'd rather not even give you a quote... as it'd be pure speculation on my part. But then again, I'd be pretty shocked if she didn't see low eleven's come this spring.
Chevy 454 Police Interceptor's can be found in many old truck's. The one that sort of fell on my lap, came with close to 550lbs of torque...

I'll take 2 car lengths in the quarter from a dig for $500, you can look under my hood, everywhere you want and you gotta race! I can't take a chance on running that thing head-up (at least not for money and quite frankly that's what it's gonna take to get me to race you), the way you raped that T/A! My car ain't any diff than that! 2 car lengths, $500 and you got a race this weekend (weather permitting)! Sorry dude the proof's in the video! Can't do head -up with that monster! That should help you prove how accurate that video was! I'll video tape it so you can show everyone it's not BS! Here's your chance!
You are insulting and arrogant and condescending, not to mention delusional..
Then at race time you wake up and either no-show or require a handicap!!!
Your need for the handicap proves you really do know the truth, you just don't like to admit it.
Your secret is safe with me

Shitty vid is better then no vid, you can see the TA getting smaller and the speedo. That said, this year's videos will be better

PS notime383 was not being sarcastic about the "two car lengths"
I will run him even (no handicap), in street tires with hoods open prior to the race and mods as stated, for $500.
Well,....do we have a race??

Of course I was being sarcastic! But why couldn't you give me 2 car lengths? The proof's in the video! The way you raped that TA I don't stand a chance! Or was that BS?? Me and you will definitely meet up "Ohjonnybomb" unless you don't ever show-up to Middletown Hangout spot again, me and you will definitely meet-up! If my car gets sold, I'll spot your (RX7) and run you with my other car(street car)! Killer! But you better bring more than $500! Keep in touch! Killer! I got better things to do right now, but if I get some time it's on!
