Car and Driver mag has this modern day pseudo Can Am series called On Lap 
of America where you drive around to half a dozen road race 
tracks up to 900 miles apart and then see how fast you can get
around the track. There are no rules (why I call it pseudo Can Am) except
the car must be street legal as far as I can tell.
Run what you brung. You have a limited amount of time to get 
from track to track so the car must be durable and reliable.

Guess what? A stock 1993 RX7 finished fourth overall in a field
of 75 cars. Only two 600 HP Viper's and a 500 HP Cobra replicar 
beat it.

Car & Driver said very little about the car with a small picture
on page 175 of the Aug. issue and no comment. Typical!
You can not buy a new RX7 and there are no advertising dollars 
to be had so why give it publicity? A turbo three rotor RX7
would have blown them all into the weeds.
