20b first gen

Hey guys have you read about the 20b 85 RX7 runing low tens in the 1/4? This car's best time is 10.32 in the 1/4 mile. He's runing in the NHRA and up into now he is ahead in points beating all them hondas and acuras from the line. The engine does not have too many fancy things since he's runing in the all motor class. He's actually runing webers, not fuel injected. The first car he had ran a best of 5.9's 1/8 with a 12a bridge port and some nos, but that was with a datsun. I just wanted to post this thread since I was not sure if you guys had already heard about it.

yeah I just noticed that too...I'm not sure which pic was taken first if it was added after or just taken off in by the last pic...but be sure that K&N has nothing to do with the performance on the car, it was just a sticker...I know I haven't seen the engine either, but I sure would like to see that engine.

20B Peripheral Port. Plus, he has been Sandbagging the 1/4 mile times. The car has been outlawed for next season. So, enjoy looking at it while you can.

Yeah that's Kilo Racing. This guy knows a lot when it comes to tuning a rotary. His from Kissimmi FL. There have many complaints about him. First they complaint about the weight of the car. They made a couple other complaints trying to eliminate him from the events. His consitant about his time (10.32). But the time 10.32 is with him hitting the breaks at the end of the track to keep from being eliminated. Pretty nice car!

It's not really fair to run a RWD lite FB witha 20B Peripheral Port versus FWD 4 bangers in an all motor class.

No Nos, No Turbos, - just N/A power.

As much as I love the beating down of the Honda's, you
gotta keep it fair.
