I have an '84 RX7 with 147,000 miles on it. I've never rebuilt it and I drive it regularly. When it was new in '84 it was quicker to 60 mph than the '84 Corvette. I'll stick with my 1.3 liter Rotary. Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

I suspect you're not the average driver. I haven't played with a rotary since the seventies, but was amazed at the power they pushed out of a 982cc engine!

The R100 was an awesome sleeper that would leave most vettes in the dust. Add a holley 650 carb and you had a true racing machine that ate fiberglass for lunch.

Happy to see you guys are getting more mileage out of them now.

i had an Arctic Cat with a 303cc in it that was a real screamer off the line but no top end. i could kick ass if the straights weren't too long.

talked to a guy at an SCCA event once running an RX7 and when ask what his shift point was, he simply said, and i quote... "Whenever the high rev warning buzzer quits buzzing, I DOWN SHIFT." he won his event too.
