Next time they went up, same thing. This time though they had a camera on the tree. The tree was about 1/10 of a second faster for the HKS guys and 1/10 of a second on a 1/8 mile track is a huge difference. HKS wins again.
There solution, build the ****** so fast they can still cheat and loose.
This RX7 will be in the states in a few years.
I think he was talkin about something like 40psi or something like that....its gonna be nuts.

Im not sure when the next event will be, I think in the April time frame.... They wanna take it to custom night at jusco at the end of the month...for its first 'debut' and just to get fluid through the car, get the bugs worked out. Then it will get some tuning...you know that for a fact.

Too many people ruin perfectly good RX7's by putting V8's in them.

Why? It's a drag car. Hell they'd be lucky if the steering wheel ever sees a full rotation. There's no need for the IRS. I think with everything he's done he know's what works and what doesn't. I doubt he just toss a solid rear axle just because of his american redneck roots.
