Raced on a parkway i dont remember from what speed but i was in high 2nd. let him go 1st and still beat him by car and a half. Went again from high 3rd waited for him to take off. Beat him by 2 cars.
I seriously thought i was going to lose. I thought those saw were faster thean that. Oh and BTW my car also has unknown mods bc i bought it used.:weeeeeeeeee:

I dont get it:confused:...the rx8s are fairly light cars with more power than our rsx/s...how are they easy to pull on?

More power stock. But I've seen RSXs pull on cars with more power just because of the gearing of the Type-S.

from a roll i use to shit on stock or mildly modded RSX's in my rx-8, because they fall on their face at 120 mph. but after you put some decent modds on the rsx they would shit on me.

Omg...need WW for this thread...
The RX-8 is lacking in the torque department (not unlike the RSX). I'm pretty sure their 1/4 mile is similar to the stock RSX in the mid 14s...

yeah but just like the average times for the rsx are low 15's, thats what rx-8's usually run.

Didn't something happen to the RX-8 back in the day, like something to re called. I remember hearing something about it but never looked into it.

Agreed. Both are low displacement, high revving engines that produce low torque. Granted the rx-8 uses a unique rotary engine to do so. I am still waiting for the day they put a turbo on the rx-8. that’d be nice.

what do u mean? they're a shitload of rx-8s with turbos, or do you mean out of the factory turbocharged?

yeah, it's slow just like the RSX. They only run mid 14s stock with a decent driver. It's obviously not made for a straight line race.

lol turbo kit that only adds 20whp :rotfl:...they will usually put down between 275-300whp with a greddy before they blow.

From the factory is what I meant. There were rumors of a factory turbo in the future models when they first came out with the rx-8, but looks like mazda will be content with continuing to produce another sporty car with all stop and no go.
