What was Rafaelito's best time with his old car?

Crispeed,

Do you remember what his best time was in his old car? Man that car was awesome back in the day. Now fast cars are coming out all the time.

Back when his car was carbureted it was very impressive to see someone make all that old school stuff work. And the car sounded awesome, and clean no popping or bogging.

Do you have any videos of his old setup?

Thanks for sharing makes me want to go back to a turbo setup. Nah it is too damn expensive.

I was at Salinas when he ran 7.6 with his old set-up, webers and hydralic clutch. It was awesome.
