This event was for sub 1000whp cars. This was the "B" Team event to the Texas Invitatinal. Where the fastest true street cars in the country come to battle it out at speeds over 200mph. I have raced in every Texas Invitatinal since the begging of the event 4 years ago, going to the finals in my Twin Turbo Viper. So i have alot of experience in this style of racing. My Rx7 did great this past weekend, and won alot of races most did not think i could win with a car only making 750whp to the 900-990 whp cars. The event was ran great and had a great time, 163 mph was the break out speed. I had the fastest car there, that did not break out.

Here are a few videos and pics. I will upload more as they start to surface.

This was video from a 700+ whp z06's car

 

Awesome Way to represent rotary love.

 

Nice man!
Your car is sick!
I use the optrix pro also, I'm pretty happy with it.

 

I saw that list from John C's FB post, your FD is just freaking awesome!

 

That FD is moving! I love how the video says "still has a rotary" lol, way to represent! Must of been a blast to drive.

 

Nice car! Great video, Glad to see you pull on that vette.

 

Awesome!

The only thing missing for me was a massive fireball at shutdown to punctuate the victory.

 

Very cool.

 

I saw you and john both on the list. Way to represent guys! Jacqui said she got some videos too!

 

Jesus you waxed that vette... awesome.

 

Nice! That's one quick FD, love the vid from the vette's perspective .

 

Thanks guys. Car is an absolute riot to drive!

 

Jrod, your FD has stolen my heart. It was built in a stupid short amount of time and does flawlessly (and reliably) what it is supposed to do, go FAST!

Props to you (Y)

 

Now that's racing!

 

Represent!

 

If I could like, or thumbs up your post I would!
Good man, you did us proud.

 

Geez that Vette look like it was standing still, awesome FD

 

Thanks for the kind words guys, I love beating people in a Wankel. People just don't respect them, I have other cars. But this car is prob my favorite!

 

RE-spek!

 

Congratulations! Great job!

I was curious to know what brand and tire size did you use during your runs? Did they perform well? I beleive you also had stock tranny and rear end right?

Thanks!

 

Yep, stock trans and rear end. After the last event last month, Third gear decided to explode. So we put another factory one in. SMALL tire! 255 M/t Drag radial on the stock Fd wheel. I plan to go with a bead locked 27" tire, i was spinning the tire on the wheel once it hooked.

 

This was linked in one of the other videos.

How does the start work? Are you trying to get as close to the starting line as possible without actually crossing over before the light turns green?

 

Where i can buy the front bumper smoke side lights?
I have been looking for them for ages

 

That's my old Fd. Making 550ish in the video. You get up to speed 60mph. And as long as both cars are paced, they turn the light green and you go!

 

Great action man!!
