<< 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. >>
Back in the late '70s or very early '80s a close friend came in 2nd overall
in one of the last "Cannonball" runs -- NY to CA. He did it in I think 36
hrs. Two drivers. Beaten by a Porsche 928 that some people thought was
actually airlifted from point to point as it was seldom spotted en-route. My
friend's car? A 1974 RX-4 (modified with street ported engine, no emission
controls, Holley carb, NA, lowered supension, Phoenix tires, etc.)
