Formulas are wannabe Trans Ams.

 

Bro I'd rather have my Formula than a Trans Am. They don't have to be hopped up with a body kit to get respect. Formula's are the no frills, Lighter, and Least Wind Resistant, version of the Pontiac v8 line up for the LS1 or LS2's for that fact. I'd take it over an LS2 GTO as well

Will do.

Or even 11's for that fact

Yawn!!! You bore me with your broken down body and your slow car.

 

Ohh but I'm still having fun with it. I don't need a blower to run 12's

I own a Formula as well and will still make fun of your Blown Mustang GT

cool yeah I gave him a call but I just wanted opinions from costumers. Whats your I.D. on LS1tech. is it the same? I forget.

Hey dark, does RUTAN TA do good tuning? My mods are in my sig

He didn't use the easy rebuttal - it's not a T/A - lol

 

Didn't feel like it was worth the waste of time tellin him its a "FORMULA". Gotta love Mustang owners. At least they try. LOL

You own a Mustang GT and your trying to make fun of ME?

I like it. I've liked them since day one. Kinda design that will always look good IMO. I just wish they had a bit more torque and grunt. I loved my S2000 and it was a fun ride, especially in comparison to my GXP, but I always missed the torque and low to mid range power when I drove it.

 

I won't argue on the fun factor, RX-8's are fun as hell to drive. The handlings awesome, I just like having the torque and grunt. A buddy has one and its a blast to drive on back country roads.

 

And my bad, I didn't catch the sluggish in handling area part. I apologize

I just got out of a cast Tuesday after 3 months and ain't about to risk another few months of hell just for a race, especially when I have another surgery coming up in two weeks. And by the way, broken fibula, broken tibia, broken tarsal, torn tendon, torn ligament, torn cartilage, 6 inch plate, 5 short screws, 2 that cross my ankle, and wire to hold the tendon in place.

I think you'd be a little surprised what minor suspension can do handling wise. I ain't gonna go out and race right now cause of a broken ankle but they handle pretty decent.

What year TA are you talking about. And I'm assuming your meaning "Trans Am". I've yet to see an RX-8 that makes a TA look Sluggish. Granted for handling its a no brainer for the RX-8 but not acceleration and speed.

Looks good. Too bad it ain't packin a 5.4 Supercharged under the hood.

Hey What's up? Introduction time. Just moved to Delaware, OH from Winchester OH down by cincinnati. Name's Brian, I own a 98 Formula Firebird 6 speed sittin at about 400 HP to the rear wheels. Got a little work done to it but lookin to add once I'm done with college. I've been a member on a few other sites for some time now under the same name so feel free to drop me a PM anytime. Lookin to go to the drag strip sometime soon.

Second time through. Did it with the level 2 dirt bike. Managed about 6:23. Last level in 19 seconds.
