I think "dig and roll" is for those really persistent fires...

I think they would both trap mid 90's but the RX-8 probably has an advantage off the line being RWD.

At the risk of ending the fun, here's a hint for the original poster, from the forum description (bold is mine):

In other news, why are there no owls on RX8Club?

over here in houston, everybody thinks they can take an rx8...i have had integras, civics, preludes, crxs..you name it trying to challenge me. Little did they know that the 1.3 liter actually has some go to it. I've never raced a Si, but i think they would beat us...

i have raced one of the 06 si's and i have an 06 rx8 with intake and exhaust and i beat it from 0-70 by like 3 or 4 car lengths. and then we started at 30 and went to 90 and i beat it by about 2 to 3 car lengths, but i have the manual 6spd tranny

original poster asked.... about his 6spd AT.... the answer is probably you will get pwnd.

There are two versions of the 8. A boys version (6spd manual) and a girls version (anything AT)


heh - not trying to start ****, im just happy I own a 6 speed manual

I've seen stock 06 Si's run 15.6 to 15.4 at the track all day.... I'm sure it would be a good race depending on the driver.. IF it was a 6 spd manual... but as far as 6spd auto, goodluck!

Um AT isn't a "girls version" of the 8.. not sure why you would insinuate gender bias based on transmission choice without wanting to start a pointless flame fest.

just because people have an opinion contrary to your own doesn't make it a flame fest, so don't get your panties in a wad ...
