It did sound nice at RA.

I like the new rules for TA next year. They will be allowing GT2 and GT3 club class cars to compete next year.

I caught this traffic on FaceBook regarding Glen's current setup:

Glen Young: It's a 3 rotor PP no turbo. This is at the rear wheels and is a little over 400. A good number at the motor is in the range of 475 or so. I have not been on a engine dyno so I do not know for sure. 550 is a bit high."

Christopher Muscat: We have a rx7 series 4 13g 3 rotor, but it makes about 550hp on pump fuel at the wheels, its a mazda lemans with slide indution and varable lengh intake setup its preety wild.

Their website says 520bhp (about 442 wheel), http://www.centrelinesuspension.com....rsport/rx7.php

550 wheel at 8800rpm to me is hard to believe without a dyno chart. I know how hard we worked to get what we have gotten, at 10,200 rpm. Im not saying no one can make more power than us, just saying without some kind of evidence it's a hard sell. Seems like for any n/a 20b claiming over 500 at the wheels there is a lack of supporting evidence.
