Forgot if I posted here before, but I perfer canyon type racing as you put it

 

Mephis did you say your rx7 has rear wheel steering??? i hope you meant with the throttle cuz i know my rear wheels dont turn...

 

i read the first couple of pages and decided to skip the rest. drag racing is good for the 7s too. look at that 1st gen NA getting what low 10s high 9s last i heard. and about 90% of the drift cars are turbo cars, so obviously the NA or turbo thing doesnt matter to either car. and a 7 can be good at both.

i would love to really get into drifting (too much money) but this is america and its practically all about the drag racing. so my car will be fast on the straight, should be a 12 sec car hopefully. but i would also love to do track racing. we are just lucky ppl have the best of both worlds, speed and handleing

 

The 2nd Gen RX-7s have a rear suspension feature that allows the rear wheels to steer into a turn. Its called DTSS: Dynamic Tracking Suspension System.


And since this thread was dug up from the dead......
i think it takes way more mad skill to drive a race like Formula 1 type of tracks. Straight line drag racing requires little skill. Nascar racing requires a bit more talent cause you have to turn left and watch out for the dumb asses that forget to turn left. But Cart, F1, Le-Mans type of races (hell, even rally racing) where there is a combination of turns, hills and road conditions, now thats gotta be the ultimate bond between man and machine next to flying a fighter aircraft.

 

yea i belive offroad rallying is the most dificult. soo many things can and always go wrong. also one of the best to watch. F1 is like the ultimate racing league. that what most drivers try to aspire to. **** i know i would love to. just call me michael shumacker jr

 

Would have to vote for handling. Love the way a car feels when it is responding correctly.

 

Handling, but not to say I wouldn't appreciate a car that can pull a ten second run off either!

 

BOTH!!!!! thats why im building more than one 7
