Well a bit fun with a
Honda Civic..3 door hatch..sounded really sweet not sure on model though.
Came right up behind me then pulled out to overtake. I put my foot down and he got up to my window..Gave him a wee glance then I was away...
Slowed down for roundabout..A bit slippery coming off nearly lost it......He came back for some more...Let him get close then accelerated away again..He didn't try a third time......Gave him a flash of me hazards and turned off for work..
ALL in good fun and got out some of me frustrations I reckon.....Car is running sweet.
Wonder what model civic it was...Sounded really sweet...2 young guys in it....

Not a VTEC mate i'll tell you that!  One of them in 3rd gear would overtake you with ease.

he didnt like it to much  ,
if the roads had been a bit straighter and less curves i could have stuck with him 
the 7 is good for straight lines , you and curves and corners nah you aint got no hope

What do you mean it's not meant for corner's ? RX7's have fantastic handling if you have the gut's to boot it. I've a video somewhere of standard RX7 96+ model, R34GTR, 2x R33 GTR's evo's and scoob's and 1 nsx and the RX7 came first out of em all

Did you beat it or did it beat you?
It may have been the 1.5 LSi, the V-Tec VTi would destroy you.
I could just about keep with VTi's in the GT.

yeah it is good for conners just not as good as an evo , you give it hard country corners covered in shit and what not and you get backend twiches , specially when your over a ton.

yea agree with you there, if it's any less then race condition's an evo will have the advantage because of 4WD. but on a race track, rx7 will win
