  1. i would think that RWD is less, the loss relies on the amount of parasitic drag produced by friction, one way to overcome friction would be to increase the torque applied...in the instance of RWD you have the long shaft which increases the mechanical advantage and thus rotational torque.

     

    i might be a genious or just plain retarded.

    nitto drag radials. and not sure shaun is really gonna do all that shit b/c i heard that 2 years ago when i beat him in my z-28. and is the 7500$ including the charger or not. b/c if it is including the charger then he's not really doing much to it b/c the charger with a cooler will run him almost 5000$ alone. anf to forge it it will cost another 2500$ in parts alone not counting if he is boring it or not. the kit i got for my car was 2300 for the rotating assembly alone and another 1100 for the cams and thats not including machine work to have it bored .030. so i dunno bout the shaun thing.

    i agree, i've heard that for years around town.."you should race Lambert, i bet he'd beat you, etc, etc" so of course i ask why? "because he's got a 5.0 with a blower"

     

    why is Shaun Lambert the standard for racing in Circleville? i'm sorry, but your basic 'blown 5.0' isn't enough to set a standard. unless it's forged and stroked and bla bla bla...then you need a good driver, traction, etc. just adding a blower doesn't make a fast car...look at my car, my turbo is bigger than my head and i have absolutely everything done to the car that is possible, and my best right now is a 15.0@110

  3. gotta love circleville...i don't think there are really any worthwhile cars here, there are some older classics, but the majority is just young ricey shit who like to run their mouths...i've had people nut swing with my car when it wasn't even running...stupid tools

    Both teams got the same parts and the same time to put them on. To bad the twins that host the show are morons, sounds like a good idea for a show though.

    agreed, those idiots used to host some rice ass show on Speed, like Extreme Tuners or something gay...they are turds and annoying as hell.

     

    the ides for the show seems like it could be cool, i like how they give the history and background of the car in question...but it will probably turn into your typical 'tuner' show..."this week we're gonna put in some NOS! and slip on these sweet rims from Giovanni" graemlins/nonono.gif

    Scott, your wheels make me want to do bad things to people. What are they, and how much did they cost?

    they are Volk GT-P's and they were probably free...those were the same wheels that were stolen off my car graemlins/nutkick.gif

    has anyone on here had a rotary rebuilt at the rx7 store?

    haven't had mine rebuilt yet, but when it does, they will do it...they've done a good job so far.
  9. i agree...Pittman and Smith are doing well, and while everyone will say "well it was just Indiana"...if we had Zwick and Ross in, we probably still would've won, but not by the same margin.

     

    i'm anxious to see if Tressel learned anything today, and might not be as hesitant about playing them
