A crazy RX-8 owner

[TulaneG35]

I was on my way to work this morning at 6:45 (on a SATURDAY?!?!) on Rea road. The speed limit is 45 and I was cruising at about 55 in the left lane with a car to my right.

I looked in my mirror and saw a RX-8 come flying (atleast 85 mph) behind me so I switch lanes, drop into 3rd and gun it. He had the obvious advantage since he was already going 30ish mph faster then me. I tried to get him to slow down, but he had no intentions of doing so .

We continue to go until I look down in 5th gear and I'm going 110!

Whoaaaaa, it's way to early to get pulled and go to jail so I slow down. He must've kept going that if not faster for the rest of his "comute". Kind of a boring story, but I'm still waiting on my first legit kill .

Either way, was a nice little rush before work.

did you feel like you were gaining on him??

any whip that has momentum like that is hard to catch up to. I had trouble in my 05 6MT wit some a Benz sedan (non amg, dont remember model) and Acura 3.2C somethin

I have caught up to a 00-01 Carrera. That was Bad, def. woulda gone to jail... but FUN AS FUCK_

im sure he could have caught up but real slow... thats to fast to just simply catch up with

Even if I had caught up, the guy was probably too drunk to notice.

those wankle rotarys are mean as hell in top end. the engine is discusting! Think of it as a motorcycle with a roof, slow of the line, but quick at wot.

Cause of the way the wankel works the car is naturally supercharged. Rotaries are all about top end. Had a 93 twin turbo rx7 and converted to single. Still miss that car till this day. I honestly think the Rx8 is garbage. JMO
