Default RIVALS!!! (56k turbocharge to catch up)

Hey everyone. One of the guys from my car club got himself his dream car, an RX-8. We plan on being rivals this track season, with him most likely out handleing me and me pulling away out of the corner to the next corner. A few shots of my car are mixed in, but this was more about him, since he is so proud of it. Let me know what you think of my photography.








AND MY FAVORITE

If you look at it in real life, it looks cheap.

Watched a video of a G35 , BMW 325 , S2000 , miata , and an RX8 . The only thing the RX8 beat was the Miata . All pro drivers . By the way , the S2000 jumped out front because af track position on the start and won the race . The G35 started in back and passed the rest . Was actaully slowly pulling in the S2000 at the end of the race

Yea i saw taht vid too. A brother at my frat has an RX8 and i used to think out of the import sub 40grand cars the RX8 had the best interior, but it really does suck in real life. You can beat the RX8 track or line

lip will be painted.....sort of.....
the part flush with the bumper will be PPW to match, and then the part that just out will be black.

I know, tires showing, but he wanted "twin drifts" around the corner lol, plus my wheels are nothing to look at.....until I get works this summer

ty for the comments all

Does your friend have any plans with the Rx-8

I'm not too big on the profile on that car, but the front-end looks aggressive with those headlights and a different bumper.

nice pics.
