Ouch, my head hurts. Sorry, but the way you typed your message is kinda hard for anyone to understand. Can you clarify something though, did you run a CZ off and on setup to see how good or bad you win or lose to the acura? Did you redline every gear? Even up to 5th?

maybe not... dynoing is becoming more unreliable with the increasing amount of computer controled / monitored parts.

I was very happy to be able to demonstrate to the spectators the massive torque in the RX-8, but alas my car didn't move very much, which resulted in me losing that race."

so your saying that you drove all the way up to 148mph?

i dont know which part shocks me more:

the fact that you did this on a public road

the fact that the acura could keep up with or w/o winning

redline all the way to 5 gear? You are talking about 4th gear redline that you had to shift to 5th after that right? smrx8, I suggest you think, type, and check instead of doing all at once coz I think that's what's happening here. It's just hard to understand what you are trying to say here. I'm sure it's some cool info we'd like to know, but you need to work more on your writing skills rather than driving skills. No offense intended, just advising.

If you're saying you redlined at 5th gear at a pulic deserted road, then I sure wish you could tell us all where it is. We'd like to do runs there too :D

You know, you really should try the decaf sometime. Tastes just like the real stuff.

If you can't understand that don't try living in NC or SC :p. But it did give me a headache though. Bascially he is just saying that a CZ RX8 is faster, especially in higher gears.
