I started looking for 2nd Gen RX-7 race cars and I found some pretty cool ones, so far. Post any pics that you have.

I dont know if this was the kind of racing you were talking about, but it IS a world record holding car.

 

hmmmm what mods did it have in order to reach the record?

 

You know that 88 Corona car was on eBay recently?

curious too, didn't the FC reach a higher top speed than the FD(i know the FD flipped but were there other tries?) ?

 

i do know that they rebuilt the fd after it flipped...and is now black instead of white, but not sure on which one was faster

 

Racing Beat FC did 238mph
Racing Beat FD White flipped trying to hit 300mph
Racing Beat FD Black did 242mph

I think he means "world record holding car" in terms of FC's and not all cars or all rotory powered vehicles. And I believe that would be an FC with it's stock motor.

if you wanna see the video of the white FD flipping here is the link:

238 with the stock motor? i kind of find that hard to believe as it would need an ungodly low gear ratio and it appears to be an n/a, hard to believe because the gearing would put a lot of strain on the motor to push those kinds of speeds. if it was using stock gearing it would be pushing well over 14kRPMS.

 

jeeeeesus! that video is ******* scary!

 

I think the record set was for highest speed in a stock body car.
The FC was tuned to around 525 HP & had the intercooler pipes running through a tub of ice.

 

Wow, did that guy make it out OK? That was one crazy flip.
