0-60 in 3.15 seconds per Mycron EVo3 Data Acqusition.

No it's not the 8, its my go-kart. But it does have 8 cubic inches of power.

Have a look from on board;

0-60 video

I think the 8 needs about 6 rotors to have this kind of performance.

Holy sheep dip - can you imagine the sound of that exhaust?! Of course you'd get about 3 gallons to the mile, but you'd sound really cool while doing it.

Did you ever race on any of these tracks?

Oh, yeah, open it full screen and sit back about 4'.

I bought my RX8 as a retirement gift to myself but still have one of my karts. May do some solos with it (shifter) next year.

Mid Ohio and Road America, other than that Sugar River, Blackhawk farms and a couple other small tracks in WI and IL.

I know this is about 5-60 times, but using my g-tech, I can consistently crack off 5.8 second 0-60's ...

TCS/DSC off
all manner of ambient air temps
2004 RX-8 GT mt6
Pirelli P-Zero Nero M+S tires oversized (245/40/18) pressured at just over 20 PSI for 0-60 runs
AC off
