220rwhp puts us at the same rwhp/weight ratio as a 350z or Mustang GT... if you can't crack into the 13's - then its not the car

ok to make this car faster... but why try to make it fast just for drag racing? |
yax... is TORQUE also another simple thing that we might have forgotten?
i understand the HP/weight ratio comparison they're trying to make.... but what about the torque comparison between those cars? all those muscle cars built for drag racing aren't exactly light the torque department... |
hey trochoidmagic...ur only supposed to flash ur headlights at other Miata owners.....
GL on adding lightness..get inventive....not desperate |

Hog wash. You guys are forgeting something simple... area under the curve. Peak horsepower doesn't mean much if you don't have a good power curve across the RPM range. The RX8 doesn't deliver that N/A. Overlay that stock Mustang's dyno sheet over one from an RX8 and it'll become very apparent why it makes it into to the high 13's.

Yep. This is very true. Too much dyno racing and bench racing on the internet makes people forget what wins races.

If yo want to run 13's make sure your dyno sheet looks someting like this.(Dyno Dynamics). In order to achive this make sure you are willing to spend several thousands of dollars for parts and tuning............................................ ................
