Great story, you know it stings when you get beat by something that has tires taller than your car.

Like a nosetackle outrunning a receiver.

I wouldn't say the RX8 is a receiver. Maybe a nosetackle outrunning a kicker would've been a better analogy.

Thanks, Rick! The tune really woke the truck up. I'll do a write up once I get the truck back up to my buddy's shop for post tune numbers.

the rx7 was a WAY better platform than the rx8 - huge bag of suck...

I've noticed that lots of folks feel the need to drag race me at stoplights, especially the hemi ram douchenozzles.

Still waiting for that to happen lol. My general manager has a dodge 1500 says that it would rip my Raptor apart told him the last three days to stay at the shop till i got back from hanging dishes, everytime i come back i laugh cause my fsm's always say he left around 1 for the day still waiting for him too stand up and take his beating like a man. Probably embarrassing to get his "GM" truck ripped apart by a technicians Raptor

Nice story Ice. And very well written... you wordsmith you.

The only time I've ever driven an RX-8 was doing figure 8 drifting drills on a wet skidpad inside Laguna Seca Speedway at a Skip Barber advanced car control class. They drift alright, but I was pretty unimpressed with the car overall. We switched to 3 Series Bimmers to finish the drill and those were more fun.

....and a note to all.... if somebody comes in here to this thread whining at Iceman or the Staff members here for telling/allowing a 'kill story' to be posted on the board, we're not even gonna bother listening. We all realize you were the Hall Monitor in High School and we truly don't give a ****. If you bitch to us about how 'kill stories' are wrong, we're gonna throw you out on your ass into the cold.... or as Scottysspeedshop would say, "we'll dunk you in the *******"
This is a Grown Man's forum, act accordingly.

Just to clarify I was the Safety Patrol not the Hall Monitor in high school.

No forum police or hall monitors in here so far.

My kill stories were epic over on the G8 board.
