    i got this from another site... Effects On Weight, Balance, and Handling... ...This is where you probably expected there to be a downside. People have probably told you that your handling and perfect weight distribution will be ruined with the addition of that big, heavy, american V-8. Just ask yourself if any of those so-called experts you have been talking to have any actual experience with piston-powered RX-7s. We’ve got the numbers to prove all those bystanders and spectators are just that....bystanders and spectators. Here are some real numbers from a typical 2nd gen RX-7 converted to Chevy power: The example car is an ‘86, which was not lightened in any way. The car was converted using a ZZ-4 crate engine & T-5 transmission. It has a full stock interior, as well as the stock air conditioning and power steering. The stock RX-7 cooling system was re-located but retained, as was the stock RX-7’s engine oil cooler. The battery was relocated to rear area just in front of the tail lites. With a full tank of fuel, the balance is close to 50/50, 1535 lbs front / 1545 lbs rear, for a total of 3080 lbs (including the 200lb driver). Subtract the weight of the 200lb driver, and the total weight is 2880, 235lbs heavier than the RX-7's 2645 stock weight, and amazingly slightly less than the later Turbo II's stock weight of 3003lbs.

    What would suck? Selling his old car to make the same type of car even better and faster, i'm sure most people would do the same.

    If he goes to Hendrick, his father will roll over in his grave. (And yes, I know this doesn't make much sense since he was cremated, but for the sake of argument....) I forsee him going to RCR.

    I had a Suzuki GS425 that I learned on up north. That would be a good bike to pick up. Granted if you can find one that is in decent condition...Not exactly the most appealing of bikes, but it's still a good beginner bike.

    Well we do have the state hospital if that expains anything... Oh, you left out all the old people and meth addicts, we have a big abundance of those groups as well.

    I think that flipping someone off could be considered Disorderly Conduct, but no way is that assault. I looked it up and all you have to do is "alarm, annoy, or harrass" someone to be guilty of Disorderly Conduct!
