Some times you don't have all day to hit your powerband, in those cases, like shown, you lose

Oh be quiet. They raced for 3+ seconds. If you can't get in your powerband by then, your car sucks.

The RX7 lost, face it. Who cares? Both cars are nice.

lolll you guys are idiots, .why do you think he turned off the camera. or stopped the video. you only see him floor it and then shuts the video off after the guy yells like a girl. he shown the 500 lbs-tq.... now let everybody see the power of the rotaries, everybody that knows rotaries, knows they are high end rpm cars.
a single turbo'ed fd can hit easily 300 kmh with a good tuning. its all in the ecu & tuning.
my 2nd gen rx7 hits 288km/h , 302rwhp at 7500rpm
my r33 skyline gts-t hits 296 km/h, 375rwhp at 6800rpm.

believe me, if the guys has the guts of posting the whole videos , most of you guys are gonna eat back your words.

I'd take the RX7 over the Maxipad any day.

476whp and it runs 11.9's? LOL

If the rx7 is truly a "built single turbo", it should be at 450RWHP easily on pump gas around 1 bar. I think he let off, which is why he got quiet and fell back.

Here is the website with the Maxima in that video.

How could you guys hate on such a cool sleeper. The car is fast PERIOD!

is it just me or the rx-7 hit the brakes towards the end

The Maxima in that video is Hal's, his car was putting out 476WHP & 502 ft. lb. of Torque, @ 10 PSI. His total weight with AC & full interior is 2840 lbs. So it is very possible, that it will easily eat up alot of fast cars. I personally think it's one of the coolest sleepers. It also runs 11.9's. Enough said.

The FD must be running 1lb of boost or a blown rotor.LOL

Sounded like the 7 went in 5th gear.
