I don't keep up with people's performance, but has it made numberous mid 9 passes? Just curious.

Well, that wasn't exactly my intent.

I will say this Eric---your car looks friggin' great, and the power to weight ratio is unbelievable. Good job on building it, and congrats on the magazine spot!

Idk, just asking.

It's never made a 9 second pass. The best I could manage was a 10.0 @ 119mph on the brakes. I don't have a 9 second license.

It has stock front brakes, that's all I need. Remember, my car isn't very heavy

What do you mean by no shots out for the club?

I feel you on the Front brakes.. BUTTT..
come on..

Your FD is modded basically to the HILT. running 10's sitting on the brakes
Fancy paint, body parts, interior and etc etc etc...
Then you see factory Mazda caliper and rotors..

Stop being cheap and buy a BBK, and stop being half assed.. = )


about the SHOTS OUT for the club..

Since you had an article..
Some where you could of put..
Special thanks to all the haters/crybabies/fools on the RX7club.
or something like that..

I'd like to get a feature spot in a magazine like Turbo Mag or Sport Compact but it seems those magazines are only interested in Shop Sponsored Cars

I find it humorous that the article praises "consistent mid-9 second passes". If the car had been running 9's LUPE would have half a dozen threads about it within 24 hours Must have been a typo

Huge props. It's one thing to know you have an amazing car, but when your work is published and featured in a mag, that is great. Congrates, Lupe.

The car is absolutely amazing. Congratulations on getting it into a magazine. I wish there were something we could do to get it into a bigger publication like Sport Compact or something of that nature though. To get such a phenomally low weight in an FD along with that good of power is a really amazing feat.

Oh, and if we all rant and rave to Sport Compact or something to get your car in there until it gets in there, would you keep the car then? haha. Sorry I just don't think anyone would have half the appreciation for it that you would, and that makes me feel like no one else deserves it half as much as you.
