World Quickest 13b???!

QUICKEST 2 ROTOR 1/4 MILE WORLD RECORD?


Im confused.... some people say Abel Ibarra old RX7 currently holds the world record of 7.44..... others say "Rafaelito" from Puerto Rico with a 7.44....

I searched around and found "Rafaelito" record at 7.47 but yet some people say that he has a 7.44 et...... I also looked and found no record for Ibarra.

About a week ago, I was in Puerto Rico, attending the PanAmerican Nationals, and witness Eddie colon FD RX7 w a 13B from "Sporty Motorsports" do a 7.44 @ 178mph.

so...Who is the quickest now??? Anyone with current INFO?

Did Abel Ibarra start the Rx8 with the 3 rotor?

Yes he did, he started his old FD with a 2 rotor (the one he ran to beat Siguels 20B FD), then went 20B on the FD, and then the 20B RX8.

Yeap, you saw the tying run for the fastest 2-rotor record Colon tied Rafaelito. I'm not sure if Abel shares that record too... imagine that, a 3-way tie!

Here's the story (in Spanish): http://www.pistonvsrotor.com/
