I've just stumbled upon this car for the first time. Hope it's not a repost. What a beautiful looking car. :ylsuper:

:uhh: what's with the horrid wing? drag car? I don't like it.....

mo its a functional wing on a race car....i seen it in person when i visited them in FL.....im surprised they let pics be taken of under the hood

Now that's a wicked eight! I like it! And I would like to know more of this engine bay.

I think it's a track car. So I guess the wing is functional. There's a huge meet on August 2nd in New Hampshire http://www.synaptic3.com/index.html . I hope it's going to be there so I can maybe swipe some parts.

The sad part about all this is the fact that my brother with a G35 showed it to me.

.wow

It looks like its got a Naturally Aspirated 3 rotor 20B with Individual throttle bodies....must be putting down 400 WHP....

too bad it just sits there, it has never been raced.

Hopefully it will see some track time soon, in Grand Am GT

Our buddy Cam over at Pettit built this amazing tubed out carbon fiber RX8 for a race series where he plans to get some much missed seat time.

Yet.

I wonder why Pettit never posted this car.

Pettit isn't very active on these forums, they're too busy working. They were going to race that car last year and were disqualified when the rules were changed at the last minute. There are some videos on youtube of that car getting dyno tuned, it's a beast.

Man that car looks dirty!

can someone please explain the smiley face look on the trunk lid in the second pic?

What you dont like the smiley face? Its there to offset the aggressiveness of the wing by its cuteness lol.

Man that car looks dirty!

i love moDified 8's ......sick!

I like it! Unique position for the exhaust.

That dyno run will haunt my dreams... amazing.

Holy Jeebus!!!

That's a GT car with a !@#$ing 20B engine in it; it needs a wing like that to keep it from flying off the ground.

Now, if you put that wing on a honda civic, call it rice all you want.

ive seen that car in person....its just overwhelming....
and that dyno run is totally awesome...

and only a n00b (with less than 200 posts) who doesnt know an air dam from lack-there-of would call a 20b cf race car rice...

:flamed:
