This is serious action. Its also how Sony got their PLAYSTATION idea's.

Notice the standard gearing prevents the RX-7 from making 300 but the guy with the Trust 6-speed has an extra cog to wind out past 300.

Just awesome, those Japs do some pretty serious Cannonballing.

Hahaha, can you imagine trying that on a freeway in Australia anywhere besides the NT??? You wouldn't get 2kms before either striking some dope sitting in the fast lane or a copper waiting to pounce.

Things that interested me (besides the point you made about the 6th cog):

The 'free play' in the steering wheel of the Trust equipped car (no doubt from the ride at that speed).

The external camera on the car getting passed - great shot.

The pink convertible, hahaha!!!

I wonder how long the 'course' is?

 

These guys are bloody idiots...

 

...rolling blockades + high speeds = disaster.

Here are my views....

Thats funny as, but very dangerous too! The only thing I hate about my RX is the electronic limiter, I could never get over 190km/h. Mind you thats still mighty fast for a four speed Auto in anyones language, but until I do those Advanced Drivers Courses and CAMS, I wouldn't try what those Japs did over there.

 

...I predict you were still in 4th gear.

 

Well I got up to 179km/h in 3rd gear before I hit 4th @ 180km/h.

 

Um, Trev, he's got a 4 speed auto. Bit tough to change up from 4th, lol.

 

Yes, yes, what they're doing is massively dangerous and I don't condone it but these kind of threads can discuss other things besides the obvious finger wagging.

 

I'll wear that....time to down tools and grab a beer.

 

Hahaha, nothing like a can of fizzy malt tactics, huh?

 

yes yes yes, we all understand the dangers but lets not get all "high & mighty" then turn the thread into a reason to install revenue cameras along every street.

Chill out & enjoy it for what it is.

Serious rotary action showing just how high the limits of these cars (RX-7) can go.

P.S........... Just love the sound of the engine at 8500rpm in Amemiya San green machine.
