TopGear Video 1999 Rx7 Review

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIxHWCjFaUo

Just getting hyped up for the Deals Gap Rotor Rally 2009.
But this is just an old review from Top Gear for our dear 1999 FD
To bad they weren't still importing then. I could have bought one

She must've had a skyline in her head when she said 2.6 liter. We all know a 2.6 litre rotary has 4 rotors.

I think she meant to translate 1.3 rotary liters into piston terms (2.6). Either way epic fail of a video

Yeah ok, I've been a member since 05' and all of a sudden I want to boost my
post count. Of course, that is what I live for

But since we’re close. Looks like you like track days? So don't I. Why not just get along, hmmm.
Were having a get together in Columbus. Hopefully before deals gap. Maybe April 4th.
