Umm that website blows *** apparently....because the 03 gt is a 13.9-14.4 car, stock.

2nd that.....


I walked and RX-8 when they first came out. There is a story about it on this board somewhere.

It is really a drivers race, you get the jump and you will own him.....

Has anyone here ever been in the driver seat of a RX8?? They are garbage, unless you're goin around corners, lol... If you race him, go in a str8 line and you'll murder him - go around slalom type stuff and you don't have a shot in the world - unless you have incredible suspension...

and besides that website says 1999 Ford Mustang GT 5.5 14.1... and the mazda at a 14.49... so even if you want to magazine race there ya go.

Monkey - probably a mid 14... more drivetrain loss then a manual, and a bit heavier...
