Congrats on the numbers it looks like you can shave half a second off no problem.
All depends on how much his car weighs and usable powerband.

Your crackerjacks are nuts! You look at my car compared to AnthonyNYC's and there is NOTHING different. He has a tranny on the way too. I really don't have a crazy amount of money wrapped up in my 7. Yes I spent the extra money on the motor,(e-shaft&NRS seals) but thats it.

Again, Mr. AARP, Im retired. You look at my setup and any other RX7 street car that drag races and there won't be any difference. I have the driveshaft shop axle setup, kazz, and girdle. Thats it. Now after breaking 5000 tranny's I have a $4000 G-Force. Same thing Lee and Anthony are using.

Hey, how many TII trannies have you guys gone thru? Seriously. Us poor drag racers have to depend on those and they are getting harder to find.

tell me about it, They were not gonna air it at first but the editors and producers decided to cuz they liked the car. this is the main reason why i'm goin w/ the g force tranny, and it was the main shaft that broke in the tranny. the http://www.driveshaftshop.com/pdetail.php?pid=636 axles are damm near bullet proof !!!! no problems in this department !!!!

stay tuned !!
