Default MAPerformance FDSM goes 8.81 @ Englishtown! 8/16/09
So we took the RX7 to Englishtown, NJ this weekend for a Mitsubishi VS Subaru shootout. We left with the Quickest ET of the day! Besides the rail dragster of course. But hey, we drove this thing to turbotrix on saturday!

8.81@138mph!

Waaaay loose, out of it at the 1000' mark!

Raceway Park didn't think it was a good idea to prep the track!

1.34 60'
5.60 @126mph 1/8th mile

Hoping to get it on a prepped surface soon!

Check out the video!

~840whp. We had to turn the boost down after the first run wouldn't stick.

Oh yes. There's a few adapters in the process... But we've got that all figured out now! It's a beast!

Can't wait to put the boost back in it and run her down a prepped surface!

Yes. It had a blown 13b when we got it, imagine that! Haha. The 4G63 Engine is much better.

A lot of my friends said the track was in horrible shape Sunday...600hp AWD cars on slicks spinning 3rd gear. Everyone said the track was hooked up for Honda Day the day before.

Cool car.

Yeah it was reckless! Far too dangerous for the big dogs.

Thanks, it's a fun weekend cruiser!
