RX-7 on Pinks

I heard an add yesterday for this week's Pinks on the Speed Channel. It's supposed to be an RX-7 against a Honda. Don't know what gen RX-7 though. Supposed to be on Wednesday night.

the civic loses- a charge pipe comes loose and no one notices although you gotta give it up to Full Race, it's gotta have one hell of a tune. running i think either 24 or 40psi on stock sleeves

aint that the truth.


It's the SPEED MACHINE/ FC3S.org Turbo II. They're throwing a party on Wednesday night when it airs on the SPEED Channel at 9:30PM ... so anyone around the San Diego area come on out! https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...ht=pinks+party

I think that show is the biggest waste of time I've ever seen. Mabey it was just the one I saw, but the whole thing was just a freaking joke. Total BS if you ask me. I think in the episode I saw, the one guy's car broke something, and they gave him something rediculous like 10 min to fix it otherwise he forfeit the race and had to give up his car, or some stupid **** like that. If I remember right, it was something with the driveshaft that had to be fixed. Just a total waste of a show IMO.

I think you are refering to the mustang the snapped the stock driveshaft and had to fix it in 10 minutes. I honestly don't care much for the show either. They have to many ways of cheating, it's unreal.

It's TV guys...there isn't a whole lot on TV that's worth a crap. But this is a CAR show, so I watch it. I'll definitely watch it before I watch some crap like Survivor...

Just my $0.02.

It turns out that 64MGB was not on that forum and did not know the ending.
