REPU dragster in Turbo magazine.

I just saw it in the new issue. Its a blue one, just a small pic but its in there. Whos is this? It looks to be in very good shape, caged etc. I havent ever seen one set up for serious drag racing. Go check it out.

Hey...
You said that you have been to Atco Raceway before..was this for the pan american nationals? I live in Australia as you may know already. Any of you guys got video footage of any import drag meets? Id love to see cars like siguel, Abel Ibarras R100 and 7 and Carlos Gonzalez new FC on video!!
Any help would be appreciated guys...even home video footage!!

Rotor tuner, I'm gaining on you man. I picked up two more REPU's this week, and I got another in the hopper for next week. I also have a frame that is mine for the taking although I don't know if I want it. I love this game.

Ya i will try and get some pics, Only 2 of them run, one is a pretty nice one that i drive every day that my dad is the original owner of. the other is a 74 also and is a really low milage orignal engine. all stock and very nice. Any ways i kinda switched to rx3's last year, as far as my interest goes, if any one needs repu parts PM me. Did you guys see the pic in turbo mag?

WOW! nwaco...how are you able to find soo many REPUS? They go for dirt cheap over there or what?
RX3's would be harder to find then REPUS yeah? I know the RX3 is popular in the US...its very popular here and in Japan. Send us some pics of ya cars fellas! Send em to waynekerswork@hotmail.com

I will try and get some pics taken. I think the rx3's are way harder to find, especialy ones in good shape. I am serious when i say that there is probably only like 2 or 3 in the whole state that drive, let alone ones that arent just race cars. There are a lot more down in CA. I have 2 rx3's, one runs and the other is more of a race car. Nwaco- you dont live too far away, you should come check out my projects sometime.

I think I saw that blue REPU your talking about at ATCO. It was going down the track with a cloud of white smoke behind it which didnt seem to effect it at all cause I was laying down constent 10's.

I don't know if you guys remember the beautifully restored Green REPU at year before last 7Stock, but it was shipped to Japan and was part of the Mazda truck display at the Tokyo Motor Show last month! Maybe they will feature it in the Museuem in Hiroshima. Can you imagine a vehicle owned by yourselfs being featured in an international show!!!! GODDDDDDDDD!
