1990fc n/a vs rx8.dam close
other night rollin to meet some guys from my area for a cruise. when i see an rx8 in front of me. both coming up to a red light i stayed in the left he's in middle lane. but i stayed a back by his bummper just checkin the car out. didnt think we would run. light goes green hes not moving so i get in front still in1st. hes by my bummper and pacing me so i punch it so does he. hit second hes by my door, 3rd still staying there hit 4th he creeps a little, hit 5th 120mph were side by side then a car gets in his lane he has to slow down. so i get the win by technacality. i know once he hit 6th he wouldve started to walk a little but that wouldve been at 130mph. all in all i was shocked that i kept up with him. he was stock and here are my mods. also figure i needed to do all this to stay dead even wit him. if he wouldve had my mods he wouldve walked me bad. still love the 8.
my mods all motor, thb mod, ports removed,rats nest gone, no emmisions,new intake pipe,dual under drive racing beat pulley and alternator, light weight flywheel, stage2 act clutch,racing beat header stainless,scilencer, apexi single gt spec sooo loouud. full racing beat suspension all around. just need roll cage and id be full race,mazdatrix race diff mount.

also we were in the beging of 5th. my 4th gear hits 120mph 5th in my car goes to 160mph. and considering the ratio is closer on the 8's. i belive he would hit his gears before me i could be wrong. had we toped out 5thgear he wouldve had about 2-3 cars. maybe. though i wouldve shut down once i was next to his door.

yeah i'm sorry but the 8 is not that slow i got an RX8 and a 90 fc my fc is N/A street ported, single straight exhaust, intake, koyo rad, 9.5 pound flywheel, six puck clutch and some stuff removed for weight saving and my stock Rx8 still has more power then my fc so you either got lucky or it was auto or the driver just sucked.

Jorx7....your car actually revs to 9,000, and you can do 160mph....hmm ?? If so, you probably shouldn't shift @ 9,000 considering you're past peak power anyways. He should've spanked you.

wow thought this thread was done wit. but i was shifting at 9grand. i dont like to do it but the motor is still going strong. i plan on getting my motor built possibly this year. so once the motor is built then ill take out some 8's wit no problem. im gona do auto x wit the car so ill have some time to go up against plenty of all motor cars then. see what happens. and like i said in a earlier post he probably wouldve have goten me past 140mph. it was a night ill surely remember. later
