Linc5.0 Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 so i took my car to the track yesterday. Street tires 95 degree day freshly sprained ankle on left foot 13.2@106 2.02 60' You either had to start with barely any launch or fry the tires in first and part of second....I am happy, I figure on a cool day and some tires I should be 12.6s to 12.8's.... p.s. i smoked an 04 C5 vette and an 04 GTO...that made me feel good inside.

2highpsi Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 Nice! Looks like its got 12s in it for sure. What do those typically run with the rotary motors? Not a built one, just a basic bolt on turbo rotary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOPR Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 Nice! Looks like its got 12s in it for sure. What do those typically run with the rotary motors? Not a built one, just a basic bolt on turbo rotary. losts of people go low 13's with stock turbos, intake, exhaust, and tune. With good tires some people get themselves into the mid twelves with the same mods (~300rwhp). RX-7s are hard to launch though, so its greatly driver dependant. My best is only 12.8 but i should be more like 12 flat if i didnt suck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not about what they "Could" run as much as it is figuring out a way to get home with the blown motor I kid I kid.

Glad you are out enjoying the car Jeff Makes sence why they all have LSXs in em now. I always thought that the rotary motors didn't blow up very often, but oil leaks from the apex seal were common??? I obviously have no idea. One of the few engines I haven't owned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
