No, the RX8 is a cornering car dear boy, not a dragster. If you want a dragster, you bought the wrong car! Go buy something american!
Besides ... a worked T5 wouldn't be too bad ... but I'm thinking you were too closed minded to even look at volvo. Am I right?

You'll have more problems driving like Nanna.

If you want to thrash your engine, go right ahead ... it's your money not mine. Commodores are quite cheap, maybe you can get one once your engine turns into a claymore
Oh yer ... and I've seen it happen to four RX7's, one was on a dyno ... bits go everywhere ... quite entertaining.

Gee, thanks Nanna. I'll be sure to remember that. Lucky I've got you to help me out with these things. Without you to advise me, I'd never have known where the redline was.

Raw nerve!!
He he with only 33 posts up your sleeve Cromax you have hit what's called the RX8 nerve! You better put your money where your mouth is huh, Kal will sort you out quick smart if you are not apt at steering!!
Honestly though, don't be rude it;s only a forum and it's only a car come on!!
I drive mine like a rotary should be driven, don't care about economy no more and BTW if the tacho goes that high..use all them revvs....it will do the engine the world of good, however for all of you waiting for your engine recall maybe only revv to 5,000 rpm.
I don't use supermarket fuel and I don't care for anything other than 95. However knock yourselves out if you pay more for something you burn....do ya wear armani shoes and have his and hers sunglasses too....ROFLMAO!!!!!!
One final note. Glad Adelaide seems to be left out of the rivalry.
Well I'm off to pollute the atmoshere and burn some 95....

Please go easy on the bombardment of witty comebacks you are killing me here.
It's OK junior when you learn how to really drive a car and realise that pushing a car when driven right is not thrashing it then you can come and play with the big boys.
Until then you keep riding your clutch and thinking how smooth that gear change was, whilst the rest of us enjoy the car for what it is.
Maybe the auto was more your speed.

But I'm happy to admit Kall can drift better than me and Julia is for sure faster.
It's all good with me. But having gone after me, Gibbo and Timbo all in the first week or so, Cromax might do better to chill out a bit. Let's talk cars and park the nasty *****.

This is all getting out of hand. I've obviously hit a nerve, either because a couple of people have big heads, or because they have shrunken extremeties. I'm leaving it here ... you're acting like kids when I'm the youngest here!
I really don't have the time to be bothered arguing with insufferable pests. Guys, and you know who you are, don't bother replying to this post as you won't get the reaction you desire.
Get back on topic FFS!

[denial] At this juncture, I'd like to point out that I am Gomez (The Real Gomez)....I am not Cromax. We share a common capital city, that is all.... [/denial]

Gibbo and I both bury the hatchet and this guy is still dishing out the gratuitous insults.Mate, the only person acting like a kid in here is you. Don't worry about a response. You've gone to the top of my ignore list with a bullet. Indeed, you're the only one on it.
