i took it on power tour last year(2007) and ran it at track that we stopped at. it ran a 12.2 with my friend, our luggage and i in the car on strret tires. im sure it would be in the high 11's with just me driving and a set of drag tires

but the car really isnt a drag car at all, it is more of a fun daily driver that just gets you to work very fast

I know it man. With that motor and that chassis, one can only expect it to be a pure thrill ride.

There is a green 3g RX7 with a Vette engine here in Tucson(specifically in Davis Monthan AFB) and rips/tears a lot of a$$ in town/street and on the track.

There is another 2g RX7 from one of the workers of AZdynochip in Phoenix(it is a red with a LTI engine) that also runs very well.

Just my .2c from what I have seen.

Your .02 on what? There are many ls1 equipped fd3s in United States and most of them rips. Pretty much a fact.
