dub Posted July 3, 2008 Author Posted July 3, 2008 All the Syncros were station wagons. If you saw a sedan, it was front drive. It may have said "Turbo Diesel". If it did, I've got a hunch the owner wants to keep it if it runs.
Nick F40 Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 YEAH, listen to that rotary scream! sorry, gettin happy on the Grand Am race.

Good balance, 9000rpm red line, drives likes it’s on rails. Good power – eventually. No torque.

Nick F40 Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 (edited) Oh I bet, look how good they're doing in SPEED Touring Cars, more torque, those rotary's really don't have much but they tack out and have a powerband from mid to top. still don't sound the same! hahaha the comment from Boris!!

Nick F40 Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 (edited) Look at that, three wide, Mazda Mazda Porsche! Battling it out. And now Mazda 1-2-3 at least before the full course caution for ACTUAL debris, not a tire pebble, a whole front right? quarter panal. Different marques and different powerplants actually battling it out! There is a Mazda driver from PA and now resides in Miami, that'll be me, except maybe not Miami! MAN primo stuff, professional racing right here! Edited July 4, 2008 by Nick F40

Most people don't know how to drive a rotary and are afraid the thrash the living daylights out of it. But I regularly made mine beep. It has a pretty level power curve it just keeps pulling and pulling and pulling from about 1500 to 9000. It just doesn't have the torque to get it there that fast. There is NOTHING that sounds like a rotary.

I did thrash an 8 a little too hard and killed it. 10k + in damages We found that it was directly caused by and over active DSC and stone cold Potenzas. Oh well. So they are not indistructable, but ###### near! Edited July 4, 2008 by CAL

CAL Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 (edited) I just saw that... Don't see that too often. I hope he is okay. They are dropping like flies. Unbelieveable! That was scary. Especailly when I first saw it... didn't see what happened but to see an RX8 on it's roof in the high banking it looked bad. Edited July 4, 2008 by CAL
Nick F40 Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 (edited) I KNOW!!! and all of a sudden! On the banking, and he got hit perfectly and got the right amount of air by the Prototype and it's like what they said, he should have stayed low and not doing transitional changes like that because you never know when a Prototype is running up there. Yeah you are right, you don't see that often. It's good he's ok! Edited July 4, 2008 by Nick F40
Nick F40 Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!!!!!!!!! SIDE BY SIDE Porsches in Prototype and WHAT A RACE!!!!!!!! Pruett got it by 800ths of a second!!! MAZDA WINS!! WOW!!!

Nick F40 Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 (edited) OH YEAH, THAT IS RACING BOYS! Closest marginal finish in the Grand Am series. I thought for sure Gurney got it! My Mazda boys got it! Yeah it wasn't but he still flipped. Edited July 4, 2008 by Nick F40
