Nothing against Flaco and I hope he is able to make a comeback with the RX8; we need more 20Bs out there!

Putting all the bullshit & **** talk aside... lets get more serious and on topic
what are your expectations for this car? It's clearly a head turner with alot of time & money spend on it but will it be hitting the track in the near future? The 3/4 chassis record is 7.06 on a 90" WB starlet, are you confident that you can beat that time?
Thing will get interesting in '09 with team PR resetting the record on a regular basis & team Australia stepping it up bigtime with Maztech in their full chassis Cougar running consistant 7.1's on the same day
Good luck, it would be cool to see the record come to the US but as usual, my money is on PR. Also don't count out Maztech for the running

Well, since Abel isn't racing much anymore my money is on Pac to break the world record. I don't see the 13b getting down into the mid 6's anytime soon and most of PR rotary's are 13bs.

Just curious why are you guys so hard on Abel? He's a fellow rotor head and made the RX7/rotary a household name for import drag racing, no? Im not trying in any way to step on toes, just curious.

^What do you mean by it would be cool for the record to come to the US?..... It's already here.

rotaryboy why are you such a cheerleader and hatter have you forgotten that i wipped every pr car out there with my two rotor including your idol siguel when he had his three rotor,houston sept 10 2001 espn. make no mistake any time i wish to come out with a 2 rotor i will and dominate nothing has changed i have nothing to prove there is no challenge for me plus who wants to spend and throw away thousands for what. i wont mention names but i havent started or raced my car in years and still no one is close ,yet they race and test several times a month. also dont forget I BUILT MY CAR IN HOUSE BUILD MY MOTORS TUNE MY ENGINE DO MY CLUTCH AND MAKE ALL THE CALLS who can even come close to that package????that is why every time i show up to the track they get their cameras out so that they can copy what i do. i have been spending time with my birds kicking *** riding my horses and building a 10000 squareft shop here at home so that i can finish all my street cars, once this gets done ill probably do something or you never know i might get the itch to have you and the other boys lose some sleep before then.i wonder who is the first and only import car to be inducted into the NHRA MUSEUM HALL OF FAME OHH I FORGOT ABEL 'FLACO' IBARRA with his r100.

And they said he was consented???
I am proud of you though Abel, that is three straight posts and you have yet to try and sell someone goods or services!!! I knew you could do it.
I can't dispute that you are ONE of the many people that shaped the sport of import drag racing. But your not the only one, you were just in the right place at the right time. Just for the record i don't care if your white, black, or brown, i don't like you because you seem to think you invented the sport and everyone owes you a debt of gratitude, but so far all i have seen from you IN HERE is a greedy little man who loves to pat himself on the back.
Oh and about me, i never claimed to be an expert on anything besides being a smart ***. And i don't race my car for the #s or the bragging rights, i do it because i enjoy it.

I can call you a little man because i have seen you before
And i can also say that the workmanship on my car may not be the best but i can say that i didn't have to do anything illegal to get my car built, can you say the same?

Bro, turn down the cockiness!!!
Who is trying to copy you??? Everyone else want's to make a clean pass and not break in the burnout box, so trust me when I tell you that no one is trying to copy you. Name one car that has a similar Intake manifold design, ECU or turbo combo like you.

You wanna know something. Not once have I seen you answer a technical question or give friendly advice about a certain problem etc.
I've met you several times and yes you did talk somewhat, but the cockiness was still there.
We have guys like Crispeed & Enzo (just to name a few) who would spend time trying to answer a technical question to help another person out and these guys have no records. Use your talent to help others on here instead of trying to sell your services & parts, then maybe you'll get some more respect...
I will continue to support the Ken Scheepers, Chris Anderson's & Roy Ramlakan's (Enzo tuned) of our sport, because those guys deserve all the respect in the book because of their humble nature. They don't promote themselves and carry around a cocky attitude like you!!
BTW Siguel is the ROTOR MAYOR!!!

Allen, you have your own feelings towards Abel for whatever your reasons but he does get alot of crap thrown at him and all the replies like the one above that I have ever read from him, is just him backing up all the smack talk towards him. I have met the guy and he is cool and down to earth. What kind of replies do you expect from someone when all you do is talk **** on the guy? Of course he is going to sound cocky because he has to back himselft up? Lets show a liltte more respect towards one another.
And Aaron, maybe if someone actually did copy Abels setup they would finally beat his record, or at least come close.

Aaron please.... PR top racers have got to be the most secretive racers out there. You think Siguel will tell me all his tuning/set up secrets? Get real. If you expect Abel to come on these forums and spill the beans on his setups and his secrets etc. to gain your respect then you are in for a long wait.

Fair enough Jay. I will keep my opinions to myself if Abel promises not to shank me with a bar of soap
