Heh hey Mr. Troll you said repeatedly you proved it wrong. I just read through the entire thread again and couldn't find any of this "proof". I did find this gem which is the first very basic mistake in your entire theory.

"This right here makes me seriously question your knowledge of drag racing. 60' is the number one most important determining factor in getting an e.t.. Your car is almost always going to make consistent power, it'll go up and down depending on heat etc., but more or less stay in the same ballpark and as long as you correct for altitude there's not much left. "

DOH! No your car won't always make consistent power. Gee what happens when your RPM's dip too low? OMG you're no longer making consistent power and you destroy the whole theory. Okay tell me where you proved that wrong again. I have to go home.

Chris
both threads will be locked by then. I'll take this as your admission that you are wrong.

Your claimage (omg talking like bush) that I said LS1 Fbodys CAN run 12's damages my repuation as a troll on your forum. I want proof or a retraction on both rx7club.com and LSLost.com.

Have a nice day.
Zero, you remember how I told you you're the master of question avoidance? Now I see where you get it from. This Kevin guy could teach lessons in how to avoid a question ... very similar to you. In that whole quote above there you skipped the whole last paragraph and didn't bother to answer about the RX7's e.t.. So let me ask it again, do you believe the time of 13.3@105 with a 2.2 60' makes sense in the logical world? Bring yourself out of magic land for a second and tell me if that 60 foot time adds up to that e.t. in a stock RX7 (a North American RX7 for the other guy who will surely make some comment about currently produced cars).

One huh..Interesting... and cool.

I wonder how many I'd be likely to encounter in a lifetime of driving in the US?

Ummmm... yes I did. I quoted your description - 2000 RX-7.

Is that what you see everyday? A 2000 RX-7?

I think it is pretty cool. More comaradary. Too bad more weren't sold of FD's and 3rd gen F-bods, IMO. We'd probably still be able to buy new ones.

Not that I wouldn't mind the relative obscurity of a nice FD as well.

It doesn't need to make sense to you? That's great ... really.

Chris
You asked if, a stock 7 could run 12's. Well you got the answer that you asked me, just not the answer you were looking for. Sorry.
You never asked me about a model year, or a 13.3 second pass, maybe you should go back and read your post???
There is no challenge, you asked a question, I gave the answer.
Yes there is stock 12 second RX-7's, don't cry to me about it.

Please tell me where you proved this. Puhhhlease!! You said you proved at least 3 times but WHERE. I'm not very bright it seems because I can't find it. Please help me.

Kevin T. Wyum

P.S. I assume it's a safe bet that you drive an Automagic right?

if you would bother to read some of the things I said earlier.....

I have answered that 100 times. While I may be the master of avoidance, you have yet to master the obvious.

I have said a million times in this thread that I know that all FD's did NOT run 10lbs boost from the factory. While mazda intended that, some have as poor as 8 or as high as 11 or 12. Now with that said, 2 extra lbs of boost, can bring an FD to over 300 HP and in that case YES it makes total sense.

Do I think an rx7 that is running the way mazda intended can run 13.3 with a 2.20 60'? Let me think about it and I'll post my answer when you pull up my quote saying that I believe a F body can run 12's stock.

BTW what do you run stock?

Kevin T. Wyum
That's all you've got? I really think going home would be a good idea for you. That's about the weakest reply I've ever seen. And still you haven't answered the questions put to you. People who avoid questions generally do so because they have no means to answer them, or are unable to argue against them. I'll take your avoidance as an acknowledgement that you realize your times are b.s.. I still don't want to call you a liar because maybe something was strange that day, but your times are not normal nor do they make any sense no matter which way you look at it.

I will not tell you anymore where I proved you wrong, go back a few pages and read it, there's no need for me to keep repeating it. In fact, I am finished with you until you start answering some questions. I've answered every question everyone has asked of me on here ... I haven't avoided any ... but I will answer no more of yours until you answer mine.

Have a good night.

Chris

I may very well be wrong Zero, and if I am I will admit it. Like I said, I will look tomorrow and see if I can find anything. If I can't I'll say so. I don't remember word for word everything I've heard on the internet so if it makes you feel better that I may be wrong about a quote from you ... then that's great for you ... I guess. It's not really a significant thing to me. It has nothing to do with this thread. We'll see tomorrow. I'll let you know.

I'm just waiting for the_glass_man to come back and tell me what year RX-7 he sees everyday.

Please tell me it isn't just another ratty old, 93, 3rd-engine, leakin' apex-sealed, leakin' coolant, bugs and crap in that nasty mess of vacuum hoses and in those Bose-speaker tubes, no-door-handle-havin', stereo flyin' out of the dashboard, runnin' 23 seconds one day, 13 flat the next , has-been.

...oh... I mean "magical" has-been.

No, more like a mint 400 hp RX-7 with coil overs, stand alone ecu, 5 points, etc...
Yeah you're right it would never compare to something as Grand as a 98 SS.

That's great man. If you're not bright enough to figure out we're talking about North American cars then I'm not going to waste any more time on you. Everyone else on this thread hasn't had any trouble realizing the topic is 3rd gen North American RX7's. The thread starter had no implication otherwise. The first few guys who posted had no trouble telling us average stock times were high 13's low 14's ... but somehow you're smarter than everyone else here and see beyond all of that right to the useless point of cars that don't exist over here. I guess we should all be as smart as you to see completely irrelevant points ... or maybe you could just dumb yourself down to the level of everyone else on this thread?



Again, thanks for coming out. So far you haven't added an intelligent point to the whole thread. Your only purpose is to flame or belittle. How about getting into the argument and contributing something? Oh ... that's right ... you don't care if anything makes sense or not.

oooooo.... tough guy...

Glad it isn't the type I feared...

Still - Not a stock 2000 running 12's... My grand, stock 2000 SS is still safe from any stock 3rd gen RX7s in the surrounding 2000 miles or so.

You have not answered this question once. DOES THE TIME OF 13.3@105 with a 2.1 60' TIME MAKE SENSE TO YOU. I don't care what Mazda intends it to run or anything else. It's a yes or no question so answer it with a yes or no. I won't answer anything else from you either until I have that question answered (and you know I have no trouble answering every question that is put to me).

Are you stupid? I said it makes sense depending on how much HP is in the car. thats where my "intended" statement came in. CAN YOU READ??????

I ran a 13.0 @ 106 with a 2.03 60'. sounds similar to my experience.

So then you're anwser is yes a stock RX7 can run a 13.3@105 with a 2.2 60' time?

I may be stupid but I can answer a yes or no question with a yes or no. Can you?

Chris
