Some pictures of our drag RX-7

The best time so far (With some traction problems) has been 8:32@159MPH Turbo/Alcohol Full Metal Body the only modification that had to be done was so that the 15x13x31 tires would fit.

No, el carro que corrio en ATCO fue el Jaycob. Ese otro carro lo mejor que hizo fue 8.59 o algo asi y es 3/4 (Era lo chocaron hace unas semanas). Nosotros somos 1/2 y lata completo. Vamos para Englishtown en Octubre.

The car is a 13B not a 20B Our good frien Siguel is a 20B he is running 7:33 with no NOS, our car uses a 13B, Ford 9 in rear end, G-Force 5 speed, Turbonetics series T???(Sorry cannot tell), Haltech F9-8, Alcohol, and the car weighs 2278 lbs. The best time that we did on VP Gasoline was 8:37 using NOS. We decided to use alcohol and no nitrous. We had to put bigger tires and have not ran with the bigger ones yet. The 8:32 time was done on 15x12x29 tires which did not allow the car to take off due to lack of traction so we will be trying in about two weeks with the 13x31 tires. We will be in E-Town in Summer or close to October I think.
If you wanna see some more go to www.pistonvsrotor.com it is the official site for drag racing in Puerto Rico. Hope you guys remember some of that spanish from high school because the site is in spanish.

I guess. Remember it is a 13B not a 20B. We were this past week at ATCO. We did a 8:45 test run. Did not hit the full throtle because we were worried about running lean because of the temperature, since our car was set in Puerto Rico the colder weather could have made it lean. We qualified 2nd not hitting the gas all the way so we stayed there for the event. At the event on sunday my cousin fucked up and red lighted on the first round so he blew his chance. But the car will be runing 8:10's without further mods...
