good luck. not to be negative. But i remeMber my car had about 60,000 miles. I changed the oil often. Run it good. Went to the track and ran a 16.0 with heavy 19" ADR chrome wheels with a clogged cat on a 6port AT. Car felt GREAT. 2 weeks later..... BOOM. Just make sure you take your planned precautions. The car was 100% stock.

here's the video

kind of hard to see once I go down the track

no it was stock n/a at the time. I have never heard of an AT RX8 running that fast without nitrious or fi.


my point is, it was running good and all of a sudden bang!
