First testing with hoosier bilas slick in 13B PP RX-7


Very bad start..... too much grip from hoosier tire wont spin . instead engine almost get stall due to this

finally picking a pace... but until my third link rod end fail in 3 laps ..... hard to imagine the rod end just rip it self a part

Nice clip! Apart from cost, is there a reason you didn't go with radial slicks?

I am still running live axle at rear. i cut and n reweld the axle

so now have about -1.5 camber... i figure with bias slick i can run very little camber. so i might have better traction !!
