But its a rotary so down time should be about the same.

I still vote on slow, although you seem to have a good point, if I go fast my crankwalk light turns on

Those Rx-8s are way overrated. BTW check out a Issue of Car and Driver or Road & Track it will tell u the specs on a stock Tiby i think they only have like 175 horse right?
