.......that would be the biggest mistake you ever made....well maybe not the biggest if you are a drinker but ya......DONT DO IT... take the 5k you got saved up drop it in your car light his world up then collect tha other 5k....but dont race him as is....that would b a big mistake

That would be simple enough, I don't know about the rx7, but that is alot of money for just an intake and exhaust mod. Just do something that is reasonable to beef up you engine, and then light him. I would not race him as-is.

First of all I doubt he has the money, his car probably cost less then 5 grand so if he really had the money to blow on one race then why isnt he driving around a nicer car. Even the corvette and viper drivers up here only drop a grand or less on a race. Second a NA rx7 of that generation runs around a 16.50-17.50 quarter. If you think you can beat him go for it. Your weight will probably be your best bet. any weight you can lose would be wise, like the spare tire and jack, rear seat, etc lose it. Thats just my opinion though.
