NC RX8 Owner Just Joined, Looking for RX7

Hey guys, I've owned my RX8 for about 4 years and race it Nationally with SCCA, I am in love with RX7's and hope to be an owner of a FD very soon.

The Advans are 18x9 +25 all around with 265's and the Volks are the same with a +35 Offset.

I have some 18x9.5 +45's RPF1's with some 295 Hoosiers that fit all around with only a roll.

Well, you look great, really. To see if you then take out some pictures from the side.

with those tire widths of the car must have very good turpentine, no ¿?

greetings and thanks for the reply!

Who said I was selling the 8

I'll be keeping it as a DD and a local Autocross vehicle. Only thing I'll do is sell my Moton's to help fund the FD. I'm planning on running the FD Nationally with SCCA in SSM. It'll either have Moton's, Penske, or some other high end shocks, that, along with Hoosiers, will make it much faster than my 8.

I have big plans for it, I just need to find the right one.

RX8 looks great. Cant wait to see what you can do with an RX7. Do you compete at any TSCC/THSCC events or only scca?

I race with Tarheel and Triad when they are at Danville or Sanford. Been to all the sites in greensboro/winston but they don't compare to Sanford. our local region is www.ccrscca.com Will be going to CMP next weekend for a 2 day event.
