Damn that looks to be an amazing RX-7. Any more vids of it in action? I would've liked to see someone further back so you could see more of the actual run.

Where was the video of Workx RX-7 taken? There were some really nice modded imports there (skyline, supra, few rx-7's) from what I could see.

the RE:Works video was taken at the annual Rotorstock event, which as the name says is mainly for Rex's but other Jap cars are also invited... that day both RE:Works and Dragon got in the low 10's with problems and won 1st and 2nd place against some pretty good competition.... 800bhp Supras, 700bhp Evo, 700 bhp Skyline... considering that both RX's had less BHP and came first and second says something

I was there and to be honest I wasn't impressed with the runs it made. The turbo has far to much lag when changing gear. Easy 0.50-0.75sec lag during a gear change.

Engine is street ported I think, by the sound of the idle anyway.

Running an REW inlet with a big turbo (looks GT45 size) 3.5ish inch IC pipework

Not sure what ECU they are running but they run an AIC aswell.

Its not a street port, its a bridge. Its not a GT45 its a GT47. Its not an REW inlet its an RE inlet. Runs Power FC. Has since run 9.1 at over 160mph on an H-pattern box with the stock IRS.

Pretty unimpressive. I wonder who Bucky could be...

It depends on if it's the 'Mouse' or the 'Keyboard' he's up against.

You know how quick a 'Mouse' can be once you let that sucker loose. As for the 'Keyboard' only thing faster than the fingers would be thought itself!
