I love these races. Team Isuzu! too bad there were undoubtedly the slowest of the bunch. The hardbodies and rangers truly dominated these races. Ray Kong was driving a mitsubishi in this race, and won a season with nissan. No wonder they can still be found drifting around the track these days.
On the Rx7 when it is taking turns you can see the edges of the hood lifting. This means the front chassis is not very stiff (it is flexing on corning).
Hey Pete, I really hope you'll upload more from that RX7 rally car, i think an onboard would be amazing. As you know almost no one runs that generation on dirt and NZ has some of the best backroads in the world. I'm really glad that off the other month wasnt worse best of luck in 2023.
Antes las marcas ...de los autos se callaban con hechos ....ahora nomás blasfemia y demandas ....pero la verdad la Mantarraya ...se comió al mazda RX7.......Rápido y furioso le dió otro empujón Al RX7
This generation RX-7 is still my dream car. When I see them now heavily modified with outrageous body kits, it breaks my heart. Kinda like looking at Lil Kim! Lol.
Those 90s RX7s were near perfect sports cars, and I'm a die-hard muscle car fan. It's just a damn shame they never made those rotary engines more durable or reliable.
I own a 97 RX7 Japan import right hand drive and I own a 1970 Dodge Charger 500 with a 440 big block. Honestly the 97 RX 7 is one reliable fucking car. The most cursed car I own is a 1986 ford f250 with a 460. Now that thing is a unreliable pos. Lol
Because that twin turbo Stillen 300ZX with 465hp was faster than then top dog Corvette ZR-1 and cowards at Motorweek on GM payroll made it look very slow and not competitive.
God this looks GREAT(the last RX7 was/is beautiful)! Mazda needs to take this design update is some and release an all electric instead of rotary with auto targa top and call it an EX7.
That ZX was fast but cowards at Motorweek made sure it looked slow with all that twin turbo power compared to Camaro, Trans Am, Mustangs and of course Corvette. That's very Pathetic I would estimate that Stillen 300ZX was faster than ZR-1 and probaby went from 0-60 in 4 sec. flat and 1/4mi in very low 12s if not faster.
Cowards at Motorweek on GM payroll made that twin turbo 465hp Stillen ZX look very slow on purpose. It was faster than ZR-1 Vette but they were not allowed to show that to potential customers.
I had a Red FD totally standard with absolutely no modifications pretty much straight out of the box... I gave it to my son who unfortunately damaged lights and one of the wheels. But I don't know if Kyosho sell these parts separately
