I know this is not Honda related but since its a big accomplishment to the world of Sport Compact Drag Racing I will post it here for you guys to enjoy.



Last night at Salinas Speedway, Puerto Rico Sporty Motorsports broke his own world record (6.97 NOV 2007) with a 6.900 @ 198.40 MPH. Sporty Motorsports is the quickest, fastest and only 2 Rotor (13B) to run 6 seconds ever.

Congrats! love that its a 2 rotor wonder if we'll see them break 200mph

 

Beautiful fast car

 

 

What's the piece sticking out the front for?

 

the beam at the end of the track is about 4-8 inchs off the ground.
I wonder what it's for?

 

In those classes they are allowed to have your front end up so many inches from the center of the wheel. I don't know how much it is, but is Legal.

Congratulations to the guys from Sporty & Gaby Skern for a sick tune!


Keep it coming PR!!!

yea the rx7 guys get killed with the short front ends, cause they stage with their front tires and set the clock off with first thing that passes the beams...so they put those things in the front to make up some time its legal cause you are allowed a certain amount of material from the center of your front wheel to the farthest front of car ...manny cruz used to love when he pulled next to flaco back in the day lol

 

Makes sense now. Thanks fella's

 

congrats, looks good

 

Some of the guys in HHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle used to use those them, also.

 

this is a full chassis car not 3/4 correct?

 

pretty sure it's a full chassis rx7!

 

That thing is real smooth going down the track compared to most rotaries ive seen. great job setting that car up all around from chassis,suspension and putting the power down.

 

Puerto Ricans really build some wicked rotaries!

 

Pretty clean....I was stumped on the front piece to till I read everything LOL
