The vega is owned and driven by Sheldon Root of Winnipeg Manitoba and does get driven on the street.
He wet 8.5 on a 295 50 drag radial at the world street race

That IC on the Vega is just huge. It honestly looks like it's out of a tranport truck. WOW!

That Vega looks awesome.What's the time of the RX7?

seen thats the funny part.....it was never tested before it went down there..then on its qualifing run it blew the motor :smilie_da

Hahaha.. that sure sounds like a rotary.. the RX-7 is the sexiest of them all though

From what I was told, the RX7s engine locked up on a qualifying pass.
He did manage to free it up and drove on the manditory 25 mile drive but didnt race.

And knowing sheldon, that IC probably did come out of a transport lol

Ur nutz.....all 3 of those others cars are WAY nicer than the RX-7...Especially the T/A and the Nova.....

-Jay

that nova is sexy :la:

i agree i love the t/a my sisters bf has video of it purgin the nitrous in his garage on his camera sexy stuff :thumbsup

He found the video on the net or he is/knows the guy who owns it and has a real video of it.?

Thats soem cool regardless...

-Jay

my sisters bf knows the guy that owns the t/a and nova there real videos :thumbsup

I personaly know steve who owns rx7 aka rex
car will be ready and should be seen this year.
he did run into a small problem hence why he did not full out run but has been taken car of and all systems are go for him

the motor locking up is a small problem..... i would hate to see what he consider's a big problem ...good to hear its gonna be out though :thumbsup

:hitit: :eek:

wow, props to this guy. that thing looks so sexy, and insane at the same.
