Both driver's are freaking tools!
+1

The modded RX7 is going to destroy a NA S, but the vid doesnt show balls.

Haha that is Direct Freaks RX-7 over on the RX7club...he is very fast....theres another video of him beating a 350z while the 350z owner was claiming that the RX-7 was spraying.

S2000s are fun, but they aren't too quick in straightline.
if you want fast in a str8 line, get somethin else, nothing touches them in the twisties, str8 line is overrated if you ask me, the real adrenaline is in the turns

Sorry... I guess not everyone was meant to be straight... and evidently the 2 in the RX7 were the epitome of:








...but then again- the thread starter takes the homo-cake... seriously- who cares if a built Rx7 beat a N/A S2000... that is two completely different classes of cars in terms of power! Why don't we go to the Pontiac G6 boards and post videos of use destroying one of their rides... because it isn't worth it.

I have a RX-7 and a S2000 currently in my possession and the RX-7 does handle better in the twisties, though the s2000 is easier to drive. Yea that vid wasn't that great...I believe the RX-7 in that video is making over 300rwhp on moderate boost? Anyways all in all great cars.

Is this in Miami?? If it is, that RX-7 could be dropping 500+ HP to the wheels! Theres an RX-7 club who some friends of mine belong to, and "supposively" there is none faster. I've seen these (possibly this one..) cars, and ridden passenger, there second only to the "old school" Supras.....IMHO.

Are you saying that the 1st gen rx-7 in the video wouldn't be able to touch an s2000 in the twisties? I drove a '79 and an '80 and they are basically gocarts...

Exactly.

Doing ricer fly-bys while the supposed 'victim' talks on the phone does not count for anything but stupidity.
