I got a little old 281 c.i. in my junk. But I would give Blackfoot a good run for his money at the track. On the street, he would yank me, unless it was on concrete with some VHT or pimp juice prep.

And they sound amazing. Heard there is a pretty big rotary scene in Puerto Rico. I've seen a couple of RX7's with LS1 swaps that were pretty damn nasty.
Swapping engines in cars has a long tradition. I've seen giant single turbo 2jz's in Honda S2000's, and a big block Chevy in a little ole 280z, with a giant shot of nitrous. Both were 8 second street cars. The 280 could put it on the back bumper on a good piece of concrete with some VHT. Nasty little son of *****, lol.
Edit: rotaries are high maintenance yes. I would change my oil at least twice a month and I ran premix which basically had people looking stumped when I would pour in oil into the gas tank and then see me drive off like nothing. The problem with rotaries though was the apex seals. If the car wasn't tuned properly or even built properly the apex seals at the corners of the rotors would shatter and scrape up and mangle the walls. Pretty nasty stuff. I've been through a few rebuilds myself so trust me it wasn't nice. But if treated properly they would last a long time. Lots of guys running American hated me on the island. My license plate read IDRNKV8. Lol honestly any car can beat any car at any given time. I was just always partial to japanese imports.Last edited by {Pito}; 06-09-2012, 08:57 AM.

I hear you about the street racing, Ayo. It sometimes isn't worth it. I live about 20 minutes from Sacramento Raceway, so It's not like I have to drive 2 hours to find a track. Sometimes its fun to just bust somebodies head open on the street, though.
I like digs, but a lot of the front wheel drive guys, (Civics, RSX's, SRT-4's) want to do stupid ass 70 rolls. I laugh, because I've seen some well set up FWD cars EAT from a dig, when they are set up right. The younger guys think that throwing a whole bunch of power at the equation is the only answer.

MikeTyson77 is the kind of person who has drink-downing competitions with people who aren't playing. "READY? GO! gulpgulpgulpgulp YEAAHHHH! IN YOUR FACE LOSER! CAMARO!!"

It I've known plenty of SER's barely pushing 230 putting the beats on cars well over 400 in the qrtr. Drag's cool but I grew up drifting and autox'ing. The scca time trial events were also really great memories. Perhaps build a 13bt miata for time trials. That would be my ideal car if I built another car for competition.
I have grenaded a motor in one of my old Foxbody Mustangs trying to get a good 1/4 mile slip though, lol. Got towed home on a Chevy flat bed. Hurt my feelings....
