I was told on here thar i would lose to a 93 ford probe gt....driveing my 89 gut five speed he has an automatic...some one also said hes got alot more hp. then me. I told the kid if i cant beat him on the drag that we will do to the flat land track....lots of turns......lol

see if he can keep up then

 

You'll probably still get beaten...

 

well, it wont be the most exciting of all races. a 17 second car versus an old auto probe. have fun racing and all, just dont expect to turn any heads. well, not very quickly, anyways.

 

HAHAHA! A probe, come on now. OK, my 88 GXL only has an exhaust and KnN filter and I can stay up to the new GT Mustangs. Well to the front of the door anyway....well my friend has a 96 Probe GT 5-speed and I beat the crap out of him every time, I beat him by about 2 car lengths, and anybody who says a Probe can beat an RX-7 in Jap style racing need to be kicked off the forum.....haha, a Probe. By the way my rx-7 runs 16.1 with just an exhaust so whoever runs 17's need to get their motor checked out.

 

Keep in mind us high elevation folk. Your 16.1 would be a 17.1 - 17.6 here in utah.

 

youre telling me your 16.1sec rx7 can keep up with new GTs? heh, sorry if i'm hard-pressed.
and what the hell is "jap style racing" ? haha, anyone who uses the term "jap style racing" should be kicked off the forum.

 

i have to agree you should be able to stay with him if you've done a fair amount of modding and you're good at driving. i ran a 14.8 with my 91 at the track (yes i have a time slip to prove it) a few weeks back. but ive done some weigh removal stuff and ive got a full exhaust (header/race pipe/duals) CAI with cold air box and some other stuff. racing is 70%driver 30%car unless your racing on the highway

 

you will waste the probe, unless the driver is driving it to the ground

 

lol I've driven a probe with the mazda-ford engine while my car was sitting in the garage waiting for the 5speed.

My n/a still pulls strong, and I'd be confident that the probe could take it until 65-80mph. The probe is pretty tight right up to their. Then it start to top out.

The engine did however have 270k miles stock

That said... my n/a rx-7 will eat just abotu anything on a road with more turns then straightaways. The fc can take a corner going 60 that tha fwd probe needs to go 35, or it will slide forward out of the turn.


EDIT: he's got an auto? lol... you'll waste him.
