keepbringing out all these damn sic titties rotors guys , the rota drag world is still growing and there is more to come, Anyone say a .40 next time out , he still bogged on the record setting run :nod: |
WOW WOW WOW!!!! Congrats!!! 217mph!!!
This will def run a .40. I wouldnt doubt a .30 or even lower!!! Car looks like it still has more it. Rotary power!!! |
Chucky is back
|
Got to see this beast of a car in person, great runs yesterday. Loved the sound of that high power rotary engine. Congratulations on the record.
|
6.4s? I wana see 6.2s! Well done! Haltech is still an awesome ECU though :p
|
right before this pass they sprayed $800 worth of vht , there was some dude who was not wearing laces on his timberlands and lost one boot.
The track condition was near perfect...I am sure they will get this car into the 6.40s in the near future. ... ohhhh...and a stock 20B middle iron (thick one) No billet!!! |
Big congrats!! That's was an awesome pass!!
|
So it is true, Cold weather + rotary induction = a whole lot of awesomeness!! :)
|
pity they did not do this last weekend in orlando it would have made a great event an unforgettable experience for me, still well worth the trip over from Ireland,thanks everybody.
|
That thing is flying, AWESOME Run!
|
with that mph I don't doubt we will see crazy numbers soon. Not that 6.51 @ 217 its not already crazy...
|
:icon_tup:
|
Beautiful. Just makes me want to get back home that much more.
|
Looking at the passes, the car looks slow...in a good way. Straight down the chute with no apparent surprises for the driver. Cannot believe it's that dialed in, basically right out of the box! Big thumbs up to all involved and can't wait to see where this thing is headed!
|
Congrats to TEAM NEW GENERATION RX8!! Thus event all out was the greatest and what made it even more amazing was I was standing about 10ft away when he took the new record at 6.51 sec. @ 217mph!! Good job guys keep up the good work.

I pray that New Gen take that record from the 2JZ. I can't stand them.
What was the terminal on the 6.38 run the 2JZ did?? |
gas have 6.38 @ 223 mph, harvey has 6.40 @ 224 mph , so i can assume next week the mighty rota will have em both for lunch

Amazing work, imagine the impact of having the title of fastest 1/4 mile sport compact going to a rotary?
We've seen more records broken this year than I can ever remember, these are exciting times. I hope this encourages the rest of the big players to push further. Congratulations to team New Gen, and everyone involved. Anyone have a breakdown of the run? I wonder how far off they are from Titan in the 1/8th... :evilgrin: |

ROTARY ROTARY ROTARY!!! New Gen RX-8 we all have your back...keep it up guys!! |
I was standing about 10ft away when this pass took place. On the starting line, it was sick being there. You could feel the tension, half the guys there were with the american car. Great great pass.
I spoke to a friend of the owner, he mentioned that this car was built and tuned but the not so famous names. He also mentioned that the car is worked on by a few different people that all came together. One of the names mentioned was Wilmer? I should have paid more attention but the story behind this car is pretty impressive. |

i dont thimk for next week because the car is heading to Puerto Rico for a huge event on Thanksgiving weekend plus the weather is not like Maryland, but i think for next year that car is going to be running on the 220+ mph a new records, and if they install any Billet side plates is going to fly..........
As for the engine, most of the people in Maryland saw that the car was running with stock Mazda plates. Supposedly they have another engine already done with the exotic XXX parts in it. But since this engine has been running so good and has been reliable, i guess they are in no rush for testing the exotic one. !!!! |

I should have paid more attention but the story behind this car is pretty impressive. Maiky and Moncho performance are in charge of the development and building of the engines foe the car. Maiky was the engine builder of the infamous Red Starlet that ran 7:06@193mph. Moncho is the new kid on the block with several cars running incredibly good with his engines. Wilbert performance is in charge of tuning. This guy is as of now the one pushing the envelope as far as rotary tuning. He's the type of guy that just wants to make ur machine go fast without concerning on who is the mechanic, the in charge of suspension etc.. . In this year he had made a least 7 different cars re-write there personal best and has made them run better than they were before. The guy is class act and know his stuff. In terms of suspension and chassis adjustments, this is the work of the crew at PMS racecars (Erick and Chucky). They are a chassis building shop and they certainly know the stuff. They were in charge of the fastest Pro Mod in Puerto Rico a few years back (Estrada Racing). The one with the task os setting the clutch is none other than Papito Ramsammy. He comes from a family of v-8 tuners and that was his speciality but as of lately more and more imports are beginning to use the adjustable clutches and with his background on Pro Mods hes certainly the one for the job. He has also a 2jz car running pretty good in the island with his clutch setups. There are more people involved but that's the ones in charge of the main jobs on the car. |

So did da car still weigh 2290 during dat pass?
|
Ok I just did a hp calulation online using the weight and the mph and it came up to 1923.23 hp. Now thats if the car really weighs 2290 and I don't no if that number is measured at the wheels or not, wat u guys think?
