here is the web site ive been there a million time and have always wondered what set up is under the hood. watch the one with the speedo in the screen! it climbs!

I know this guy is on the board but i cant remember his user name to do a search

 

Damian from MN. He had a RX6a turbo, but just recently swaped it out for a R85 and is awaiting warmer weather. It used to be Fritz's car I think.

 

he needs to get on the gas sooner in turns. he waits till the turn is almost done. get on the gas sooner bud and youll be a lot quicker.

 

R85 for track racing? or is he not planning on doing that anymore?

 

Still doing track

 

The only car that Rx-7 didn't eat for lunch before was the Z06, I wonder how fast it'll be this year!

 

i only watched half of the video with the cobra r and it seemed to have a lot more top end and on the straights would pull away.

 

it was foko's old car and damien owns it now. he had a rx6a and is switching to the r85.

 

So he switched from a T78, to an RX6A? I thought that car was a T78, or am I thinking of Brads car? FWIW, if you got on the gas sooner, the front of the car might well be following the rear I am experimenting with some large turbos, with smallish hotsides this spring, I'll be sure to post my results . Regards, Carl

 

so why r85?

 

Haha, good one buddy.

 

it is since he waits till the turn is almost over. shows how un educated you are in being a fast driver. his car never gets squirly or a bit out of control he has room for improvement and that is one place to start. i am sure you have no knowledge of the real ins and outs of track racing so keep ur comments to urself and stfu!

 

You are sure I have no knowledge of the real ins and outs? Damn dude, you fucked up there. You obviously don't know too much about racing. With a good amount of power, you don't just hit the gas midway through a turn, have fun correcting and trying to stay on the track. He has room for improvement maybe yes, but he is still damn good. Shows how uneducated I am at being a fast driver? Sorry I am not part of TEH FAST N FURIOUS YO!!?!?!?!?!?!?

 

lol fast and the furious funny. he is a good driver in a fast car i never said he wasnt. i said he has room for improvement cause he can get on the gas sooner. did u watch any of the videos? ive spent a lot of time in karts and formula dodge cars. they have a ton more power then this guys car, due to power to weight. i never said hit the gas at the beginning of the turn or midway. you should start back on the gas once you can see out of the turn. that is if you are a good driver you would be looking out of the turn and not right in front of you. if he gets on the gas when he sees out of the turn he will have a faster exit speed and will be to the next turns quicker then before and quicker then anyone else waiting till the turn is over to get on the gas.

 

because from 3000 to whatever it pulls like a demon and the power doesnt drop off.

 

it spools around 3000rpm? that turbo is huge and it spools tha fast?

This is the only dyno sheet i have ever seen on the turbo. I would like to know what else is done to the car, I tryed to e-mail the guy to ask but the link wouldnt work for me.

 

it was his race car so a street ported 13B, jay tech manifold, ic, and a straight exhaust.

 

how safe do you think pump gas would be when runnig this kit say 15-18psi?

 

93 is fine for that boost range. you can run whatever you want if it is tuned correctly.

 

nice car but thats hot laps not racing and no cage at 160 while talking to dad. Wheel to wheel combat is a lot different.Lets scrub paint in a turn or fight for the inside under hard braking. But its cool your able to see the car run but its a death trap when he loses it cause the Roll BAR isnt gonna hold it together in a high speed mishap.

 

First he's not getting Boost @ 3000 Rpm on the R85, he's getting that on the Apexi's Rx-6's, It'll be interesting what he does with the R85, I'd also liek to see what Max Cooper will do, since he's a bit of a Track Nut as well.

Secondly I was going to say, that if he's not independantly wealthy, and can just buy another race prepped RX-7, he'd be wise to take it a little conservative in the turns, he's not trying to qualify for the 24 hr. @ Le-Mans, so why risk loosing the car in a turn, and smacking into a wall ? And possibly loose his life, he's having fun, and sharing his experience, because he has a business that does, video production from what I understand, and this makes it easy(er) to get the proper equipment to make it look fun, and edit it down properly to make it interesting.

when does the boost start comming on and when does it hit full boost! also whats the a/r and what kind of air does this beast move? I would just e-mail the guys at kg but like i said the link doesnt work.

 

I was also wondering what kind of intercooler kit he is running? fd's like to over heat on the track but his seams to stay nice and cool.

 

thats one fast seven, wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
