So you take the turn slow in first only to gas it on the straight? You do know your in an RX-7 not a mustang right?

So he's gonna take that 15-20mph ramp at 60mph??

Are you dumb or something?

The video said FD getting on the freeway, which is exactly what he did. Punch it from 1st and running through 4th.

It didnt say, "FD sprinting through roads, then blasting on the freeway."


Nice video mike, its hard to chirp those 265's huh? lol

^^ Haha, I knew someone was going to say that I was thinking of coming in hot but I didn't feel like risking it, traffic is whizzing by at 70+ mph, if I made a mistake I would end up spinning into traffic. No bueno. But yeah, I feel you.

Thanks, I should have turned the music off to hear the motor better, wasn't even thinking about it. Wish I could find an open place, around here there are no real places to go... too much traffic and people.

Haha, nice Rob Yeah, these tires stick so much better than my old ones it's not even funny. With my old 245 Toyos, I could spin those suckers thru 2nd. Fun times

Thanks guys. Here's a couple. Please note: I have to thank Mr. 1QUIK7 for the wheels and tires. I bought them off him a while ago and they are awesome!

Haha, thanks Brad, funny thing is that drink was still 1/2 full I had to put it down for a few minutes and wanted to put it somewhere I wouldn't forget it... and then my gf took the pic when she took it she didn't even notice it... oh well. More exposure for you! BTW, thanks for the drink, I felt like I had 5 cups of coffee after that!

Nice vid man! Judging by the video, I would have thought you have more power than it says in your sig.

Love the wheels- sorry for the threadjack what are they? Also love the black UIM...I'm going to do that (all wrinkle black charge piping and UIM and LIM) once I get ambitious with taking stuff apart.

i would say im more "something".
im not disputing that he did/did not get on the freeway, im just merely suggesting a "funner" way of doing so.
and the whole 15-20mph for the ramp is more of a suggestion than a rule xD
anyway, still nice car and vid Mike.
now go make a vid titled "FD sprining through roads, then blasting on the freeway"

Thanks dude. I'm still not sure exactly what power the car is at right now, it's been thru a few changes in the last year or so. Probably still about 280-300 whp. The wheels... they are Gram Lights 57 optimise... click on link in my sig for more details. And the black UIM is pretty neat, the wrinkle paint/whatever it is is even cooler!
