so if a 60-1 is a "spare" it sucks? to me a spare means a resonable backup that would be used if something broke. it doesn't mean part you went dumpster-diving to get. you don't show up to a cock fight witha duck unless your a dumbass, they prepped their car to what they thought would be a fair challenge.


[QUOTE=FC3Cturbo]^ They peiced the RX7 Together aswell from spare parts. It most likey had low compression and the coolant seals were going.

Wrong, i din't see gobs of smoke after it started, cooanlt seals were fine, plus it wasn't a 3rd gen motor with the common seal prob. when the haltch temp sensor reaches a certain degree wheather it be air temp or coolant, it modifies the map by pulling timing or adding fuel based by how you setup the cooant ignition or fuel map. thats why it started, it just needed time to cycle and col down.since it was heat soaked after it got running as you saw in the last race it had plenty of power. he could have 70 all the way around and it would still start quick. if he dropped comp from a seal it would most likely not start and even if it did it would run shitty and have no power.
