gotta love the rx8!!!
Hey guys....dont we all love the RX8! Just been racing it around a very rough terrain road with sharp corners and all... 
Anyway guys....out of curiosity.....how many miles do you get to the tank of gas in this baby?
I've heard through talking to some owners that they get 22mpg? I am around 14! Some input???

Drive slower.
It will fix both your gas mileage problem, (14mpg is perfectly normal for hard driving) and your street racing problem.
What would have happened if a Dodge caravan full of toddlers came up the road going the other way?

Hey guys....dont we all love the RX8! Just been racing it around a Race track at a sanctioned event. The track had very rough terrain road with sharp corners and all, against a 350Z and guess who won.....we did!

Socket7 - There is a time and a place, and only drivers know when its right to race. Why buy this car and not use it for what its used for?!
Rglbegl - Nice fix, partner!
Drive the rotary like its made for.....end of story.

Yes. Most racers call it a track day. Just remember that the 8 was not designed to be used as an instrument of death, but can easily become one if you're being stupid. I would really hate to have to post the name of a fellow forum member in my "street racing kills" thread. So be careful ok?

Yeah. I wasn't going to let the jokers **** it up entirely, but they tried pretty hard.
I'm planning on keeping it updated whenever google news picks up something new. 5 pages of what basicly amounts to obituaries for people is sobering to even the dumbest of people.
